Branch Overview

Branch is a leading AI‑based lending fintech with 50M+ downloads across India and Africa. We use alternative data to reach millions of people that are largely excluded from the financial sector. Headquartered in Silicon Valley with operations in India, Nigeria and Kenya, Branch is a for‑profit, socially conscious company built for scale and impact. Our mission‑driven team—founded and led by the former CEO of Kiva.org—now spans 400+ employees globally. We’re backed by investors such as Andreessen Horowitz, Visa, and the IFC.

Job Overview

Branch launched in India in early 2019 and has seen rapid adoption and growth. As we expand, reliable, secure, and scalable infrastructure is critical to support our data‑driven products and services. We are looking for talented interns to join our DevOps team and be part of this journey. As a DevOps Intern, you will work closely with senior engineers to automate infrastructure, improve deployment pipelines, and enhance monitoring and observability. This is a 4–6 month program, with potential conversion into a full‑time offer based on performance.

Responsibilities

• Assist in designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines for application and data services.
• Work with containerization tools (Docker, Kubernetes) for scaling and deployment.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning using Infrastructure‑as‑Code (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible).
• Support cloud operations across AWS (e.g., EC2, S3, RDS, IAM, Lambda) and/or GCP/Azure equivalents.
• Implement monitoring and alerting solutions (e.g., DataDog, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack).
• Troubleshoot deployment, networking, and performance issues in staging and production.
• Collaborate with developers, data engineers, and analysts to ensure smooth release cycles.

Qualifications

• Strong foundation in computer science fundamentals (e.g., OS, networking, scripting).
• Hands‑on experience with Linux administration.
• Familiarity with CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD).
• Exposure to cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure).
• Knowledge of containerization and orchestration (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
• Exposure to Infrastructure‑as‑Code frameworks (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, or similar).
• Nice‑to‑have: experience with monitoring/alerting tools (e.g., DataDog, Prometheus, Grafana).
• Collaborative, proactive, and eager to learn in a fast‑paced environment.

Benefits of Joining

• Mission‑driven, fast‑paced and entrepreneurial environment.
• Competitive stipend as compensation.
• A collaborative and flat company culture.
