This 11-week program places interns on teams where they'll contribute to meaningful and impactful projects from day one.

• Device Quality Engineering
• Connected Devices
• IoT Testing & Performance

Placement is based on business needs, skillsets, and academic background. Project work may include testing and validating hardware products, evaluating device performance, analyzing test results, supporting engineering improvements, assisting with product quality initiatives, and helping ensure connected devices meet customer and business requirements.
