About the job
Paradoxum Games is looking for new interns to help us design new, scalable and maintainable infrastructure! As an infrastructure engineering intern, you'll be working on creating new infrastructure that millions of players depend on - working at both a high-level and a low-level simultaneously. Want to help us build out our datacenter presence? Go for it! The sky is the limit - it all depends on what you want to do. You'll be directly reporting to our Infrastructure team, and if you like working on things behind the scenes that people depend on without ever realizing, then this is the job for you!

- Required: Have excellent written / verbal communication skills in English
- Required: Familiar with one or more programming languages such as Lua, JavaScript, Java, C++, or others
- Required: Experience working with version control software (We use Git)
- Are curious about new technologies / features, and are willing to implement them
- Have a passion for both playing and making games
- Are familiar with container orchestration systems (Kubernetes, HashiCorp Nomad, Docker Swarn)
- Are familiar with containers, container registries, etc (Docker, OCI, etc)
- Want to learn how the Internet works at a low-level
You'll be doing:
- Writing quality TypeScript code to help reduce technical debt, clean up old code, fixing bugs, documenting features, and peer reviewing code
- Collaborating with cross-disciplinary peers
- Writing code that runs directly on our Kubernetes cluster, which serves millions of players each month
- Thoroughly testing and deploying to millions of players with minimal bugs
- Write unit and integration tests for the code you write
