About Flock Safety

Flock Safety is the leading safety technology platform dedicated to helping communities thrive through proactive crime prevention and security. Our comprehensive hardware and software suite connects cities, law enforcement, businesses, schools, and neighborhoods, creating a nationwide public-private safety network. Trusted by over 5,000 communities, 4,500 law enforcement agencies, and 1,000 businesses, Flock delivers real-time intelligence while prioritizing privacy and responsible innovation.

We operate as a high-performance, low-ego team, driven by urgency, collaboration, and bold thinking. Working at Flock means tackling significant challenges, moving rapidly, and continuously improving. It’s an intense yet deeply rewarding environment for those committed to making a tangible impact.

With nearly $700M in venture funding and a $7.5B valuation, we are scaling intentionally and seeking top talent to help us build the impossible. If you value teamwork, ownership, and solving complex problems, Flock could be an ideal place for you.

We are actively seeking multiple interns for Summer 2026! These are paid, in-person, 12-week internships based out of Atlanta, GA, with dates from May 18 - August 7, 2026.

At Flock, we believe that emerging talent is crucial for future innovation. Our Emerging Talent Program offers early-career professionals the chance to make an immediate impact on real-world challenges, all while learning in a fast-paced, high-growth environment. You will work alongside experienced mentors, develop skills that will accelerate your career, and contribute directly to our mission of creating safer, thriving communities. From day one, you are treated like a full-time employee, engaging with real projects, assuming real responsibility, and making a real impact.

The Opportunity

At Flock Safety, the effectiveness of our devices hinges on their connectivity. We are looking for a Wireless Software Systems Intern to join the team responsible for the essential wireless connections—WLAN, 5G, and CV2X—that link our hardware to the cloud. In this role, you will be in our lab, assisting in the design and validation of the radio systems that enable our devices to stream critical data from the field in real-time.

This is not just about theory; you will gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge wireless radios and help resolve issues associated with wireless systems. If you are a student fascinated by wireless physics and eager to see how 5G and cellular technology are applied to public safety at scale, come help us build the future of connected hardware.

The Skillset

  • Currently pursuing a BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field with a focus on wireless communication and theory.
  • A solid grasp of software and system capabilities.
  • Ability to process measured data and translate it into clear, concise reports or visualizations.
  • A strong drive to work cross-functionally with Antenna, Systems, and Software teams to solve complex hardware challenges.
  • Exposure to Python or MATLAB for data processing.
  • A "maker" spirit—demonstrated by personal projects involving ham radio, antennas, or wireless IoT devices.

Feeling uneasy that you haven’t ticked every box? That’s okay; we’ve felt that way too. Studies have shown women and minorities are less likely to apply unless they meet all qualifications. We encourage you to break the status quo and apply to roles that would make you excited to come to work every day.

Compensation

In this role, you will receive an hourly rate of $30-35/hr. Interns are expected to work a full 40-hour week during the duration of their internship.

Location

This role is based in Atlanta, GA, where you will join our dynamic team to collaborate in person and drive innovation. Candidates must reside in or relocate to Atlanta, GA, for this position.
