Responsibilities

Tech Mahindra GCP intern responsibilities: Building Java backend services with Spring Boot 3.x — REST APIs, Spring Data JPA against Cloud SQL or Spanner (for highly scaled telecom workloads), Spring Security with Google Identity. Containerising services with multi-stage Dockerfiles optimised for Cloud Run and GKE deployment. Integrating with GCP managed services — Pub/Sub for telecom event streaming, Firestore for low-latency NoSQL, BigQuery for analytics on telecom traffic data, Cloud Storage for logs and blobs, Secret Manager for credentials, Cloud Monitoring + Cloud Trace for observability. Writing Cloud Build YAML pipelines or migrating client projects from Jenkins to Cloud Build. Writing Terraform modules for GCP infrastructure. Pair-programming with senior Tech Mahindra engineers.

Intern feedback and growth: weekly 1:1 with your assigned mentor, fortnightly review with the engineering manager, end-of-internship 360-degree review. Performance feedback is concrete and structured — you know exactly where you stand and what to improve before the PPO decision.

Requirements & qualifications

Currently pursuing B.E./B.Tech/MCA/M.Tech in CSE, IT, or related engineering disciplines — graduating in 2026, 2027, or 2028 depending on internship length. CGPA 7.0+, no active backlogs. Strong Java foundations (Java 17 preferred), comfort with Spring Boot basics, familiarity with one cloud (GCP preferred but AWS or Azure depth equally valuable). Git fluency, basic SQL, basic Linux command-line. Bonus: Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer certification, prior GCP deployments, Docker fluency, GitHub portfolio with at least one Spring Boot project, interest in emerging tech (5G, IoT, edge, Vertex AI) for Makers Lab placements.

Tech Mahindra sponsors visa and relocation support where applicable but most candidates from Hyderabad-area institutions can attend from existing residence.

Why this role in 2026

Why this internship matters for your career trajectory: This is a real software engineering position with real production-impact code review and feedback — not a "tutorial-style" experience. By the end of the internship, you will have shipped code that real users depend on, written tests that gate production deployments, debugged a real production incident under guidance, and presented your work to senior engineers. This is the experience that converts a fresh graduate into a strong full-time hire. The cloud + DevOps + Spring Boot stack is the dominant Indian enterprise backend stack of 2026, and Tech Mahindra's engineering culture is one of the best places in India to learn it at production scale. Pre-placement offer conversion is realistic for committed interns — meaning you can lock in your post-graduation role months before campus placement season. Cloudsoft Solutions, Hyderabad, supports you with: targeted mock interviews modelled on Tech Mahindra's actual interview format, resume review against this exact job description, Java DSA practice covering the company's known interview topic distribution, and a GitHub portfolio review focused on cloud-deployed Spring Boot projects.

Application tips

Application optimisation: 1. Apply through the official Tech Mahindra careers URL listed above — never pay any third-party "facilitator" claiming guaranteed interviews. Tech Mahindra hires directly and does not use commission-based recruiters for internships. 2. Tailor your resume to mention every keyword from this job description that you genuinely have experience with — Java, Spring Boot, the specific cloud platform, Docker, Git, REST APIs, JPA. ATS systems used by these companies aggressively keyword-match. 3. Link your GitHub profile prominently. At least one repository should be a deployed Spring Boot service (Cloud Run, Azure App Service, AWS Elastic Beanstalk — any will do). Include the live URL. 4. Apply at least 3-6 months before your target internship start date. Summer 2026 applications typically open December 2025 - February 2026. Winter 2026 applications open September-October 2026. 5. Set up job alerts on the Tech Mahindra careers portal with keywords: "Software Engineering Intern", "Cloud Intern", "Java Intern", "Spring Boot".

Interview preparation

Interview structure typically: (1) Online assessment with 60-90 minutes of Java DSA + cloud/Spring Boot conceptual questions. (2) Technical phone screen with a hiring engineer — 45 minutes including coding live in Java on a shared editor. (3) On-site or virtual loop with 3-4 interviewers covering DSA, system design (intern-appropriate scope), Spring Boot internals, cloud-specific scenarios, and behavioural questions. (4) Manager round assessing fit, motivation, and culture-add. Cloudsoft's mock interview program covers all four stages with realistic prompts from this exact Tech Mahindra pipeline.

Career growth

Post-internship path: strong performance converts to a Pre-Placement Offer (PPO) for a Software Engineer / Solutions Engineer role at Tech Mahindra on graduation. Even without a PPO, the line item "Software Engineering Intern at Tech Mahindra" on your resume opens interview doors at virtually every major Indian + global IT employer — Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Adobe, Salesforce, Razorpay, Freshworks. Within 3-5 years you're well-positioned for Senior Software Engineer roles at ₹15-30 LPA.

Company & benefits

Compensation includes monthly stipend in the range listed above, free meals at the campus cafeteria, free transportation (where applicable), access to Tech Mahindra's internal learning platforms (LinkedIn Learning, Coursera, Pluralsight, A Cloud Guru, official Tech Mahindra learning paths), mentorship, performance feedback, and a strong likelihood of converting to a full-time offer.
