Engineering Internship
6-Month Internship in Albuquerque, NM
Knight Scientific Systems has a need for interns in the fields of Computer Science, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, or Electrical Engineering. Interns at Knight get experience in all parts of the business: doing technical work for customers, doing internal research, and writing proposals. We balance oversight and independence, providing help when needed while expecting interns to deliver self-directed solutions. We expect you to be honest and creative, to communicate often, and to support the team. It would be great if you had experience with Java or C++, or with python or Matlab, but it isn’t necessary. People who are smart, hardworking, and humble will thrive at Knight.
