Job Description:     About the Role We are looking for a motivated Software Engineering Intern to work closely with experienced senior developers on a next-generation network management service . As an intern, you’ll contribute to a focused engineering project that may involve systems software, automated testing, performance and scale analysis, or developer tooling. A key part of the internship will be learning how experienced engineers use AI throughout the software development lifecycle . You’ll use modern AI coding tools to understand existing code, investigate problems, implement changes, troubleshoot failures, generate and improve tests, and analyze results. Just as importantly, you’ll learn how to question and validate AI-generated work using tests, measurements, code review, and engineering judgment. What You’ll Work On Depending on project priorities, your work could include: • Improving parity and behavioral testing that compares expected behavior across implementations. • Testing how network management pipeline components work together, from incoming data through processing to stored or displayed results. • Developing end-to-end test scenarios for realistic user, network, or device workflows. • Measuring performance and scale and comparing results across configurations or implementations. • Improving the tools and automation engineers use to build, test, troubleshoot, and validate software changes. • Using AI to understand unfamiliar areas of the codebase, investigate defects, analyze logs and test failures, and propose potential solutions. • Participating in code reviews, debugging sessions, and technical discussions with experienced networking software engineers. Working in an AI-Driven Engineering Process This internship is about more than using AI to generate code. You’ll learn how experienced developers integrate AI into their engineering workflow: Senior developer defines the problem and constraints → Intern works with AI → AI assists with analysis and implementation → Tests and measurements validate the result → Intern reviews the output → Senior developer provides technical guidance You’ll learn how to provide AI with the right technical context, recognize when its suggestions are incomplete or incorrect, and use objective evidence to determine whether a change actually works. The goal is to develop both AI fluency and strong engineering judgment . Mentorship You’ll work closely with a senior developer who will help: • Define and scope your project. • Explain relevant system behavior and architecture. • Help you navigate an existing codebase. • Guide your use of AI development tools. • Review your code, tests, and technical conclusions. • Help you understand the engineering trade-offs behind different approaches. You won’t be exp
