Software Engineering Summer 2024 Internship

ABL Space Systems was founded in 2017 by veterans of SpaceX and Morgan Stanley to develop low-cost launch vehicles for the small satellite industry. More importantly, we’re building a launch system we are truly proud of – no gimmicks or over-design, just reliable, rapidly deployable launches. We’re an ambitious team with big goals and, together, we’re determined to prove that reaching space can be simple, efficient, and routine.

When launch day arrives, we want you by our side

ABL’s Interns enjoy problem solving, working in a fast-paced environment, and being an integral part of their team. There is no lack of challenging work and opportunities to learn. Interns at ABL accept being responsible for tasks and are held accountable to other engineers and leadership. If being part of a grounded team and taking on roles in the design, development, qualification, build, and flight of your hardware sounds interesting, ABL is where you need to be.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

    • Currently enrolled in any engineering discipline or computer science at a four-year accredited university.
    • 3+ months experience of software programming or development experience (internship, laboratory, academic and personal/team project experience is applicable).
    • Software coding experience in one or more of the following: C, C++, C#, Java, and JavaScript (internship, laboratory, academic and personal/team project experience is applicable).

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

    • 6+ months experience of experience developing and deploying software that has been used on real-world applications and projects (internship, laboratory, academic and personal/team project experience is applicable).
    • GPA of 3.5 or greater.
    • Experience with verification and validation of safety and mission critical software (internship, laboratory, academic and personal/team project experience is applicable).

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

    • Must be able to work full time, on-site at an ABL location, for 12 consecutive weeks beginning in May, June, or July 2024.
    • Must be able to provide own transportation.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

    • Critical thinking: ABL engineers understand the “why” behind all design decisions, operational events, and test outcomes.
    • Ability to deal with ambiguity: there is no roadmap and ABL engineers must be comfortable defining their own pathway to an objective.
    • End-to-end ownership: projects are delivered fully complete and ready for flight; there is no one to pick up the slack of partially complete work.
