Learn by building something useful with experienced engineers. You will own a bounded contribution with close mentorship.
Not open yet: Research program
This work starts when that stage arrives, so there is no application to submit today and we will not pretend otherwise. What is written below is what the role is for and what would make somebody right for it, published early on purpose so you can decide whether it is worth watching.
The work
Work on a defined systems, hardware, application or tooling project. Learn to test changes, review evidence and explain tradeoffs. Receive regular feedback and collaborate with the people who will use or maintain your work.
The milestone
By the end of the agreed paid placement, ship a reviewed contribution with tests or validation appropriate to the work and a clear handoff.
Evidence
Bring solid fundamentals, curiosity and evidence that you build and learn. Applicants may come through universities, vocational programs, open-source communities or independent study.
Evidence, not credentials. We are describing work you can point at, in whatever form it exists.
The exercise
Show a project, explain one difficult problem you solved and describe what you would improve with another week.
