Amazon has an open Apache Kafka Streaming Intern position in Thane for motivated freshers and final-year students. You will work on live event streaming with Apache Kafka projects and finish with something you can genuinely talk about in interviews. About the role As an Apache Kafka Streaming Intern at Amazon, your core focus will be moving events through Kafka topics reliably, and finding out what "at least once" costs downstream. You are attached to a named mentor, join the team's stand-ups and reviews, and are trusted with work that matters rather than filler tasks. Questions are encouraged, your output is reviewed properly, and you get the feedback you need to actually improve. What you'll do day to day • Work on moving events through Kafka topics reliably, and finding out what "at least once" costs downstream alongside the core team • Use Apache Kafka, Producers & Consumers, Topics & Partitions, Kafka Connect, Python or Java on live, production-facing problems • Turn your work into clear documentation, notes or decks for reviewers • Take part in reviews and act on the feedback you receive • Collaborate across functions — engineering, product, design or business as the work demands • Follow the team's quality, testing and documentation standards • Track and report your own progress against an agreed plan Skills you'll build You will build practical, demonstrable experience in Apache Kafka, Producers & Consumers, Topics & Partitions, Kafka Connect, Python or Java, Schema Registry, Stream Processing, Linux, Monitoring, Idempotency — the exact toolkit that separates a hireable fresher from a CV full of coursework. No prior work experience is required. Curiosity, problem-solving ability and a willingness to learn matter far more here than a polished résumé, and every one of these skills is taught on the job. Who should apply Students in their final year or recent graduates from B.E./B.Tech (CSE/IT), BCA/MCA or B.Sc (Computer Science / IT) based in or willing to work from Thane. You should be willing to learn Apache Kafka, Producers & Consumers, Topics & Partitions and able to communicate clearly in writing. Personal projects, coursework, certifications or open-source contributions strengthen your application, but none of them are mandatory.
