We bring the strength of more than 100 years of experience and renowned engineering expertise to meet the needs of today’s mission and stay ahead of tomorrow’s threat.

What You Will Do

The Software Engineering department in Indianapolis is looking for interns to support development, test and other software-related tasks throughout the life cycle of product development for various projects.  These could include software applications for mobile, Windows, Linux, and even proprietary or real-time embedded operating environments.  The work associated with our Indianapolis group is most often focused on products associated with the exciting world surrounding military aircraft systems but can also include projects for other customers, both internal and external.

What You Will Learn
The Software Engineering Intern works within a collaborative team of engineers to help provide creative solutions to complex technical system and software integration problems.  The successful intern will work closely with other Software Engineers and stakeholders on tasking for solutions with the end user and operational needs in mind.  Interns may need to move between projects and processes, so adaptability and an eye toward learning are keys to success.  As one example, an intern may be assigned primarily and in ongoing fashion to an integrated and cross-functional team using Agile Scrum to update a cockpit display system.  That same intern may additionally be assigned an organizational research assignment to work on throughout the internship.
