A networking employer on Sahastradhara Road in Dehradun is offering an on-site Associate Network Engineer internship at ₹15,500 a month.
Role overview
The internship focuses on real network operations work rather than shadowing. Interns take on tasks tied to hardware configuration, connectivity troubleshooting, and ongoing performance monitoring, with senior engineers available to guide the work rather than hand it off untested.
Responsibilities
- Configure and maintain network hardware across the office infrastructure
- Troubleshoot connectivity issues when they're reported
- Monitor network performance and security on a routine basis
- Help plan capacity ahead of future growth in network usage
Capacity planning is a smaller part of the role at the internship level, but it's included from the start so interns build a habit of thinking about the network's future load, not just its present state.
Requirements
A bachelor's degree is required, with a field in electronics or computing preferred, though not strictly required. No prior professional experience is required, and this internship is explicitly for students or recent graduates who want real, hands-on networking experience in Dehradun rather than a purely theoretical one.
Candidates should have a working grasp of core networking protocols, particularly TCP/IP, along with routing and switching concepts. Some understanding of firewall configuration is expected too, and troubleshooting ability matters as much as any single technical skill on this list, since most of the job comes down to figuring out why something isn't working.
Skills required
- Networking protocols, especially TCP/IP
- Routing and switching fundamentals
- Firewall basics
- Troubleshooting network issues methodically
Skills that help
A CCNA in progress, or even just studying toward one, is a solid signal for this role. Exposure to network monitoring tools such as Wireshark or SolarWinds is useful, and basic scripting skills to automate routine network tasks would set a candidate apart from others applying with a purely theoretical background.
Compensation and setting
The stipend is ₹15,500 a month, and the role is on-site at the Sahastradhara Road location. Naukri Mitra lists this alongside a handful of other networking internships around Dehradun, most clustered in a similar pay range for entry-level candidates. There's no remote component to this listing, so students should plan for the commute or a short-term move if they're coming from outside the city.
Benefits
- Monthly stipend of ₹15,500
- Mentorship from senior network engineers on the team
- Certificate of completion at the end of the internship
- Strong potential for a full-time offer based on performance
- Relocation assistance for students moving to Dehradun
- Accommodation support during the internship period
The full-time conversion path is a real consideration here, not just a line item. Past interns who've performed well have moved directly into associate-level roles on the same team once positions opened up.
How to apply
Submit a resume along with any coursework, lab exercises, or personal projects related to networking. A brief note describing a networking problem you've worked through, even a simple home-lab setup, gives the hiring team a clearer picture than a list of course names alone.
