This internship is a great opportunity if you enjoy coding with a purpose, learning how software connects to real-world hardware, and seeing your tools directly support silicon validation teams. This internship will take place during the Summer 2026 semester over the course of a 12-14 week long internship working a full-time schedule.

What You'll Do
  • Contribute to development of software tools and frameworks that support silicon validation in the lab.
  • Work with engineers to automate tests, improve workflows, and streamline data collection.
  • Build scripts and dashboards to help teams analyze large sets of validation data.
  • Write clean, maintainable code and contribute to shared infrastructure.
  • Learn how hardware validation labs operate and how software accelerates the bring-up process.
What We're Looking For
  • Currently pursuing a BS or MS in Computer Science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or related field.
  • Solid programming skills in Python, C++, or similar languages.
  • Experience with Git or other version control tools.
  • Some knowledge of data visualization or database systems.
  • Enthusiasm for working with hardware/software systems and curiosity about silicon validation.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and eagerness to learn new technologies.
What You'll Gain
  • Hands-on experience building real infrastructure that supports silicon validation workflows.
  • Exposure to both software engineering best practices and hardware validation environments.
  • Mentorship from experienced engineers working at the cutting edge of chip design and validation.
  • The chance to see your work directly impact product development.
