What you need

  • Undergraduate or graduate candidates in computer science or engineering
  • Significant experience in Python, C++, C, or Java
  • Serious interest in systems programming (e.g. Linux kernel development, compilers, embedded systems, networking, file systems, debuggers)
  • In-depth understanding of how userland programs run on Linux and interact with the kernel
  • Clear, concise, and proactive communicator
  • Detail-oriented

Nice to have

  • Some basic knowledge of Git, databases (e.g. MySQL), and web development frameworks is a plus

Worth weighing

  • Internship role may imply limited long-term career growth opportunities
  • Focus on systems programming may not appeal to all software development interests
