MERN Full Stack Developer Intern Assignment

Objective

Build and deploy a small AI Task Processing Platform using MERN stack, Python worker, Docker,
Kubernetes (k3s allowed), Argo CD (GitOps), and CI/CD. This assignment evaluates your ability
to build production-ready applications and deploy them properly.

What You Need to Build

User registration and login (JWT authentication).


•
Create AI tasks (title, input text, operation).
•
Run tasks asynchronously in background.
•
Track task status (pending, running, success, failed).
•
View task logs and results.
•
Deploy entire system to Kubernetes using Argo CD.
•

Required Services

Frontend: React or [Link]


•
Backend API: [Link] + Express
•
Worker Service: Python (background job processor)
•
Database: MongoDB
•
Queue: Redis
•

Task Processing Requirements

Supported operations: uppercase, lowercase, reverse string, word count.


• •
When user clicks Run: create task record with status 'pending'.
Push job to Redis queue.
•
Worker processes job and updates status to 'running'.
•
Save result and logs.
•
Final status must be success or failed.
•

Docker Requirements

Separate Dockerfile for frontend, backend, and worker.


• •
Use multi-stage builds.

Use non-root user in containers.


•
Provide docker-compose for local development.
•

Kubernetes Requirements

Use namespace for the project.


•
Deployment and Service for each component.
• •
Ingress configuration.

ConfigMaps and Secrets.


•
Resource limits and requests.
•
Liveness and Readiness probes.
•
Worker should support scaling to multiple replicas.
•

GitOps with Argo CD

Create a separate infrastructure repository.


• •
Store Kubernetes manifests in infra repository.
•
Install and configure Argo CD.

Enable auto-sync on repository changes.


• •
Provide screenshot of Argo CD dashboard.

CI/CD Requirements

Run lint checks.


•
Build Docker images.
•
Push images to Docker Hub or container registry.
• •
Update image tag in infra repository automatically.

Security Requirements

Password hashing using bcrypt.


•
JWT-based authentication.
•
Helmet middleware.
•
Rate limiting.
•
No hardcoded secrets in repository.
•

Architecture Document (Required)

Explain worker scaling strategy.


•
Explain how system handles high task volume (100k tasks/day).
• •
Database indexing strategy.

Handling Redis failure.


•
How to deploy staging and production environments.
•

Submission Requirements

Application repository.
•
Infrastructure repository.
•
Live deployed URL (if possible).

Argo CD screenshot.
•
Architecture document (2–4 pages).
•
README with setup instructions.
