A company at Mahindra World City in Jaipur is offering an internship for a Junior Database Administrator. The role is on-site and structured as an internship rather than a permanent hire from day one, with a monthly stipend of ₹15,500.
The technical bar is fairly specific for an internship. Candidates need working knowledge of SQL, an understanding of database design principles, some grasp of backup and recovery procedures, and enough exposure to performance tuning to know why a slow query is slow, even if you haven't fixed one under real production pressure yet.
- SQL, comfortable enough to write and troubleshoot real queries
- Database design, including how tables and relationships get structured
- Backup and recovery procedures
- Performance tuning, at least at a conceptual level
On the job, you'll help design and maintain database structures as the team's projects require, optimize queries that are running slower than they should, assist with backup routines and basic data security practices, and monitor system dashboards to catch reliability issues before they become real problems. It's less about independent decision-making at this stage and more about doing real work alongside people who'll walk you through the reasoning.
A bachelor's degree is required, and the coursework behind it should have given you real, practical grounding in programming and systems, whatever the exact major on the diploma. No prior professional experience is expected going in. What tends to matter more for this internship is whether you've actually worked with databases before, through coursework, a personal project, or something similar, rather than the exact wording on your transcript.
None of the following are required, but they'd help you stand out from other applicants. Hands-on time with a specific database system, whether that's MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server, counts for more than general familiarity once you're in the interview room. Some exposure to a cloud database service, such as AWS RDS or Azure SQL, is increasingly useful as more teams move workloads off traditional on-premises servers. Basic scripting ability in Python or Bash helps too, mostly for automating the repetitive parts of database maintenance rather than doing them by hand every time.
The internship comes with more than just the stipend. Mentorship from senior team members is part of the structure, not an occasional bonus, and you'll receive a certificate of completion at the end regardless of what happens next. Naukri Mitra notes strong potential for a full-time offer tied to this listing, which is worth factoring in if you're weighing it against a shorter, less connected internship elsewhere.
- Monthly stipend of ₹15,500
- Mentorship from senior database administrators
- Certificate of completion
- Strong potential for a full-time offer
- Relocation assistance and accommodation support for interns moving to Jaipur
Mahindra World City has become a reasonably active hub for IT and business process work on the outskirts of Jaipur, and database administrator jobs in Jaipur tend to be less common than general software roles in the city, which can work in your favor if you're specifically targeting this specialization early. Because the position is on-site, relocation assistance and accommodation support are available for students coming from outside the city, and that support matters given how spread out student housing options are around the World City area.
Pay for this internship lines up reasonably well with monthly database administrator salaries in Jaipur once you account for the entry-level stipend structure most internships use. Students finishing a relevant degree and comfortable with the core skills above should apply directly through the listing, particularly if a database administrator internship in Jaipur for students is what you've specifically been searching for rather than a broader software internship.
