System Administrators here run the infrastructure behind a platform fleet with a 99.9999% uptime record: monitoring, provisioning, security hardening, and the automation that keeps five intelligence domains online. From the first month you work on production-adjacent infrastructure under senior review. Below is the complete internship description, required skills, eligibility, and selection process. ## Facts - Location: New Delhi (HQ), CDR Building, Chhatarpur - Type: 6-month internship, certification provided - Availability: immediate, rolling intake (always hiring) - Compensation: discussed at screening ## What you will actually do - Run system monitoring across the infrastructure fleet — spotting degradation before it becomes outage, in an environment where 99.9999% uptime is the standing record - Handle account lifecycle and directory administration: provisioning, de-provisioning, and the access discipline a confidentiality-first organization demands - Support firewall and network-system operations alongside senior administrators — configuration, review, and change discipline - Harden systems against breach and intrusion — patch management, baseline enforcement, and the boring fundamentals done consistently - Automate the repetitive: scripts for provisioning, checks, and reporting that give the team its time back - Troubleshoot issues and outages with structured methodology, documenting causes and fixes in the runbook - Support users and network administrators across the organization — in person, on call, or over email - Maintain the documentation that outlives the fix: runbook entries, configuration records, and the recovery notes that turn your incidents into institutional knowledge ## Skills - Linux administration fundamentals — the shell is home - Networking fundamentals — LAN/WAN, DNS, firewalls, VPNs - Windows administration basics including directory services - Scripting ability — Python or Bash for automation - Patch and configuration management discipline - Security fundamentals — intrusion detection, least privilege, backups - Monitoring mindset — dashboards, alerts, and knowing what normal looks like - Structured troubleshooting — hypothesis, test, document - Documentation habit — runbook entries others can follow - Calm under incident pressure - Discretion with access privileges (non-negotiable) - Virtualization fundamentals ## Tools - Linux server administration (Debian/RHEL family) - Ansible for configuration management - Docker container operations - Proxmox virtualization - Monitoring stacks (Prometheus/Grafana-class) ## Questions and answers ### What does a System Administrator intern do at CryptoMize? A System Administrator intern runs monitoring, account provisioning, security hardening, and automation across the infrastructure behind a 99.9999%-uptime platform fleet — on production-adjacent systems from month one, under senior review. ### What is the eligibility for the System Administrator Internship? Final-year students and recent graduates with Linux fundamentals, networking basics, and scripting ability. No diploma is mandatory — we evaluate demonstrated capability (clinical-licensed roles are the only exception). ### Is the System Administrator Internship paid? Compensation is discussed during the screening process and depends on demonstrated skill, engagement classification, urgency, and track record. We deliberately do not publish figures. ### How long is the internship, and is a certificate provided? The program runs 6 months at our New Delhi HQ, with a certificate provided on completion — plus real operations experience on production-adjacent infrastructure. ### What is the selection process for System Administrator interns? A short application, a practical Linux-and-scripting screening task, and a final interview with the infrastructure lead covering troubleshooting methodology. The cycle typically completes within two weeks. ### Which skills should I learn before applying? Linux administration, networking fundamentals, and Python or Bash scripting. Tooling — Ansible, Docker, Proxmox, monitoring stacks — we teach on real infrastructure in-house. ### What infrastructure will I actually work on? The platform fleet behind our ten proprietary platforms and five intelligence domains — Linux servers, virtualization, containers, and the monitoring stack that keeps a 99.9999% uptime record honest, starting on staging systems that mirror production. ### Does the internship include security work or pure operations? Both — the two are inseparable here. Hardening, patching, and access discipline are operations work in a confidentiality-first organization, and interns learn security fundamentals as part of routine administration rather than as a separate track. By month four you will have hardened systems, rotated credentials, and walked a recovery drill end to end. That combination — hardening plus verified recovery — is what the uptime record is actually built from. Apply: https://cryptomize.com/careers/internship/apply/
