At Evidence Action, your colleagues are your greatest asset. You'll partner with high-caliber colleagues in an environment blending innovation, autonomy, and teamwork. Our team excels in disruptive thinking and believes in rolling up our sleeves to get things done. If you're looking to work flexibly and with purpose, join a team that delivers measurable change for millions.

The Role

This is a 6 month, full time paid internship. India Safe Water Program is building a lightweight, purpose-built operations management platform to coordinate field and Head Quarter activity — similar in spirit to tools like Zoho or a lightweight CRM, but tailored to our program's workflows. The platform will be used to plan and track field visits, route approvals, manage vendor coordination, and give Head Quarter real-time visibility into activity status across the program.

You will report to the Senior Officer, Safe Water Operations and work directly with the Data, Survey & Operations team to design, build, and deploy this application from the ground up. You will get hands-on ownership of a real production system used daily by program staff — not a simulated project. This is a strong 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 platform will support the following core modules:

Field activity planning — scheduling and logging of 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, assigning and revoking roles and permissions
Secure user login and authentication
Vendor coordination section — vendor-facing activity and status updates
Head Quarter dashboard — consolidated view of activity across all field locations
Follow-up and completion tracking, with basic notifications/reminders

Responsibilities

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

Requirements

Essential

Completed a degree in Computer Science IT, or a related field (or equivalent self-taught/bootcamp experience)
Project experience on the following platforms

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 (SSH, file permissions, processes)

Desirable

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/authorization patterns (JWT, sessions, 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

Disclaimer: The job description provided above is a general outline of the typical responsibilities and requirements for the role. It may be modified or expanded based on the specific needs and structure of the organization.

Position Location
This is a 6-month internship (with the possibility of extension or conversion, based on organisational need) based in New Delhi, India.

We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an Indian employment visa at this time. Applicants must be legally authorized to work in India for roles based in India.

À propos de Evidence Action

We do development differently.

Evidence Action is a global nonprofit organization with an approach distinctive in international development – we exclusively scale interventions that are backed by strong evidence and can be delivered with exceptional cost-effectiveness. We take a data-driven approach to identifying and scaling interventions which deliver outsized impact for the hundreds of millions of impoverished individuals who are our clients. We deploy deep expertise in building for scale, coupled with a focus on rigorous measurement and continuous program improvement, to ensure these solutions measurably improve the lives of millions.

We deliver tremendous impact.

Our programs – in health, nutrition, and safe water – have grown since our founding in 2013 to reach over 280 million people annually. Our Deworm the World Initiative has helped governments across Asia and Africa deliver over 1.3 billion childhood deworming treatments – which have been shown to increase long-term income by 13%. This places deworming among the most cost-effective income generation programs in the world, as ranked by charity evaluators such as GiveWell and The Life You Can Save. Our Dispensers for Safe Water program provides sustained safe water access to over 4 million people in rural Kenya, Uganda, and Malawi. Our last-mile delivery network services communities through a free-to-use, human-centric design that increases usage over 5 times that of traditional water treatment options, preventing childhood illness and deaths caused by unsafe water. Dispensers for Safe Water has been recognized by Charity Navigator for its high cost-effectiveness, by Expo2020 as one of only 25 Global Best Practice Programmes, and a chlorine dispenser now resides in the Nobel Museum, selected by 2019 Nobel laureate Michael Kremer – whose work was integral to the program’s development.

We drive innovation.

Evidence Action’s Accelerator builds the next generation of exceptional programs, taking an approach most similar to a venture capital model. We thoughtfully advance promising new programs through a rigorous, 6 stage process – from desk research to testing at large scale. We are ruthless in exiting programs which do not meet our criteria on scalability, evidence of impact, and cost-effectiveness, ensuring that the programs that do advance deliver outsized impact for millions of people.

We are global.

Over 400 individuals work on our programs across eight countries – Kenya, Liberia, Malawi, Nigeria, Pakistan, Uganda, India, and the United States, including both Evidence Action staff and close partners. We are united by a tremendous passion for our mission and the impact that together we create. We are strong because of our diversity of experience, geography, and background – with over 90% of our people in the countries where our impact is focused. This spirit, and our culture, are guided by a set of core values that underpin our work. These values embody our focus on evidence, urgency, iteration, and incessance in our search for solutions.

We have big ambitions.

Our goal is to double our impact by 2024, to fulfill our vision of a world where hundreds of millions of people in the poorest places have better opportunities and their lives are measurably improved. We believe in bold and urgent action – because poverty doesn’t wait, and neither should we.

We need great people.

Our success to date is due to the collective work of our amazing staff. To achieve our ambitious goals, we need to grow our team. We are looking for people who share our passion for following the evidence, seeking cost-effective ways of working, and operating at scale. We seek individuals who take an entrepreneurial approach, enjoy tackling hard problems, and iterate to achieve the best solutions – and know that people with these skills come from many professional backgrounds.

If our vision and approach excite you as much as it does us, we invite you to join us.
