Operating across 11 countries, its team of 900+ people has reached over 500 million people.

• Accelerator: Explores untapped opportunities in global health and tests low-cost interventions with the greatest potential to save and improve lives.

About the Role

The India Safe Water Program is building a lightweight, purpose-built operations management platform to coordinate field and Head Quarter activity. The platform is similar in spirit to tools such as Zoho or a lightweight CRM but tailored specifically to the program’s workflows.

It will be used to:

• Plan and track field visits.
• Route approvals.
• Manage vendor coordination.
• Give Head Quarter real-time visibility into activity status across the program.

The intern will work directly with the Data, Survey & Operations team to design, build and deploy the application from the ground up.

The role offers hands-on ownership of a real production system used daily by program staff, rather than a simulated project, and provides an opportunity for someone early in their development career to build full-stack and DevOps experience in a live operational environment.

What You Will Build

The operations management platform will include the following core modules:

• Field Activity Planning: Scheduling and logging field visits.
• Approval Workflows: Multi-stage sign-off on planned and completed activities.
• Activity Tracker: Status views for pending, in-process and completed items.
• Role-Based Administration: Adding/removing users and assigning or revoking roles and permissions.
• Secure User Login & Authentication.
• Vendor Coordination Section: Vendor-facing activity and status updates.
• Head Quarter Dashboard: Consolidated view of activity across all field locations.
• Follow-up & Completion Tracking: Including basic notifications and reminders.

Key Responsibilities

• Build responsive front-end interfaces using HTML, CSS and modern JavaScript, using React or another framework as agreed with the team.
• Develop REST APIs using Node.js and Express, with clean and well-documented JSON contracts.
• Design and manage relational data models in MySQL or PostgreSQL.
• Implement authentication and role-based authorization for different user types, including Head Quarter, field, vendor and admin users.
• Build activity dashboards and status visualizations using Chart.js and Bootstrap.
• Deploy and maintain the application on AWS, including EC2, IAM, Security Groups and S3.
• Configure and manage the production server using Linux fundamentals, including SSH, file permissions and process management.
• Set up Nginx as a reverse proxy with HTTPS and manage the application process using PM2.
• Use Git and GitHub for version control, with clean commit practices and basic code review.
• Support basic logging and monitoring so production issues can be identified and traced.
• Document setup, deployment and handover steps so the application can be maintained after the internship ends.

Essential Requirements

• Completed degree in Computer Science, IT or a related field, or equivalent self-taught/bootcamp experience.
• Project experience with:
  • HTML, CSS and modern JavaScript
  • Bootstrap and Chart.js
  • REST API design and JSON
  • Node.js and Express
  • MySQL or PostgreSQL
  • Git and GitHub
  • Linux administration/MAC, including SSH, file permissions and processes

Desirable Skills & Experience

• Working knowledge of AWS – EC2, IAM, Security Groups and S3.
• Experience with Nginx, HTTPS/SSL configuration and PM2.
• Familiarity with React or another modern front-end framework.
• Understanding of authentication and authorization patterns, including JWT, sessions and role-based access control.
• Awareness of basic performance optimization and application logging/monitoring practices.
• A prior academic, freelance or personal project involving a deployed full-stack application.
