## Summary by newgrad.ai

What you'll do:

- Work on on-premises agent deployment lifecycle including Helm charts and release processes
- Help consolidate diverged customer deployments onto standardized supported configurations
- Improve customer onboarding to reduce deployment time from weeks to days
- Debug across full stack: temporal workflows, Kubernetes, storage, and authentication systems
- Support security operations including CVE triage and incident root cause analysis

What they're looking for:

- Experience building in constrained environments like homelabs or self-hosted setups
- Curiosity about Kubernetes and Helm with desire to develop deep expertise
- AI native background with language model and agent development experience
- Linux proficiency and ability to write clear technical documentation
- Collaborative mindset with willingness to acknowledge knowledge gaps

## Posting

At Composio, we are building infrastructure that allows agents to communicate with the tools you use for work including Github, Gmail, Notion, Salesforce, etc. We are a lean team of engineers wrangling problems from context to search, that help us provide the most capable bridge between your agents and your tools. We raised a $25M Series A from Lightspeed with some incredible angels like Guillermo Rauch (CEO of Vercel), Dharmesh Shah (CTO of Hubspot), Gokul Rajaram. Beginning of this year we 3x our ARR with customers like Google, AWS, Mercor, Mintlify, Glean and Emergent. running stateful agent infrastructure inside someone else's cluster is new territory. as our FDE intern, you'll help define what reliable, repeatable on-prem agent deployment looks like across customers running us in their own environments.

### WHAT YOU'LL DO?

- get hands-on with the on-prem lifecycle: helm charts, upgrades, the weekly release train, rollback paths.
- help pull diverged customer forks back onto one supported chart, with guardrails.
- contribute to onboarding so a new customer deploys in days, not weeks.
- debug across the stack: temporal workflows, k8s init ordering, storage, auth-refresh pipelines.
- support the security surface: CVE triage, patching, RCAs.

### MUST HAVES

if you are very good, nothing is a must per-se

- you've built in environments you don't fully control — homelab, VPC, self-hosted — and like figuring out why systems break.
- curious about kubernetes and helm; you want to go deep.
- ai native — you've built with language models and have opinions on agents and MCP
- comfortable in linux; you can write a clear RCA.
- human — you build trust and admit what you don't know.

### BONUS

temporal, Postgres, cloud secret managers, self-hosted delivery (kots/airgap), open source or hackathon wins.
