Join us for a unique 10-12 week paid internship that offers personal and professional development, an executive speaker series, and community-building.
As a Hardware Engineering Intern, you will develop system and subsystem boards for next generation server and storage products. The teams you work with design, develop, and deploy next generation server and storage machine products while ensuring that this equipment is reliable. You’ll work closely with engineers to improve our hardware to meet Google's standards of quality and reliability, and your work has the potential to impact many of Google users.
Google is and always will be an engineering company. We hire people with a broad set of technical skills who are ready to address some of technology's greatest challenges and make an impact on millions, if not billions, of users. At Google, engineers not only revolutionize search, they routinely work on massive scalability and storage solutions, large-scale applications and entirely new platforms for developers around the world. From Google Ads to Chrome, Android to YouTube, Social to Local, Google engineers are changing the world one technological achievement after another.
Perform high-fidelity simulation modeling (CAD cleanup, meshing) on complex 3D assemblies to quantify stress, deformation, and strain energy under extreme loads.
Predict natural frequencies and mode shapes. Conduct harmonic response, random vibration, and transient dynamics analyses to evaluate structural integrity under operational and shipping vibration profiles.
