Software Engineering Intern -Multiple Roles (Summer 2024)

Come start your career with some of the brightest and most innovative minds in the country. Get your hands on actual projects, and at the same time, prepare for a truly awesome career in aerospace and defense. This is not your parent’s internship program – you won’t be getting coffee and ordering lunch. Our Interns have the unique experience of getting both mentoring and coaching while working side by side with recognized industry experts on real-world assignments directly related to their field of study. Bring your knowledge and desire to learn, and we’ll provide the experience!

Summer internships are typically 10-12 weeks long, start in late May/early June and work an average of 40 hours a week. Depending on satisfactory completion of certain criteria during your internship, you may be considered for a full-time position upon graduation.

As a Technical Intern, you'll ask questions, get involved, share your ideas, be part of a project team, attend planning meetings, complete assignments, absorb and learn from your team then apply that learning to active projects. You'll have the opportunity to learn fundamental business processes and procedures, build your technical foundation through practice and mentorship, and participate in an in-depth program built by our University Recruiting team which includes cross-functional workshops, Intern socials and meetings with leadership to gain understanding of the business and SNC’s culture.
