Internship Details

Duration: 6 months, full-time

Conversion: Pre-placement offer (PPO) based on performance during the internship

Location: Gurgaon (hybrid, 3 days a week in office)

Work culture: We work in sprints with clearly defined deliverables and demanding timelines. The pace is fast and the hours can be long around releases. In exchange, you get real ownership of features, direct mentorship from the core team, and exposure across AI, cloud, and hardware that most internships never offer.

About the Role

You will work on the cloud backend that everything else talks to: every edge device, camera, dashboard, and mobile app. This includes async APIs, data pipelines, real-time video plumbing, and deployments for a multi-

tenant system where multiple client organisations, each with multiple factory sites, run on the same platform,

sometimes in the cloud and sometimes on-premise at the client's facility.

Responsibilities

Design and build async REST APIs with FastAPI and async SQLAlchemy on PostgreSQL

Build and maintain multi-tenant APIs where every request is correctly scoped to its organisation, site, and user permissions

Design PostgreSQL schemas, write migrations, and optimise queries as data volume grows

Work on real-time systems: Redis for caching and queues, WebSockets for live updates, and go2rtc for camera stream relay





Work with camera streams on the backend side: RTSP feeds, ffmpeg for remuxing and clipping, and serving video to web and mobile clients

Write tests and maintain the testing pipeline so changes ship safely to production

ZeroForg zeroforg.comContainerise and deploy services on AWS, managing infrastructure as code with Terraform, and help package the platform for on-premise client deployments

Requirements

Solid Python, including async programming (asyncio, async/await, concurrent I/O)

Strong PostgreSQL: schema design, indexing, joins, transactions, and query optimisation

Experience building or working with multi-tenant APIs

Experience writing tests and working with a testing pipeline (pytest, CI)

Familiarity with Redis, WebSockets, go2rtc, and sandboxing tools like gVisor

Working knowledge of AWS and Terraform

Camera and video basics like RTSP and ffmpeg are strongly preferred

Bonus

Experience using Docker and Terraform to handle on-premise deployments

Prior work with edge devices or microcontrollers

Any work on multi-tenancy security (tenant isolation, access control, data separation)

Eligibility

Students or recent graduates from CS, IT, ECE, EE, ME, and related branches who can commit 6 months full-
