Responsibilities

As a Software Engineering Intern at Keysight’s High Frequency Technology Center, your primary focus will be developing software automation for CAD-related engineering workflows, including design review, CAD data generation, verification, and repeatable process checks. You will help build practical tools that reduce manual review effort, improve consistency across engineering handoffs, and make CAD workflow steps more traceable, reliable, and scalable. This work may include translating engineering rules and review criteria into automated checks, improving how CAD artifacts and related metadata are generated or validated, and supporting workflow documentation so that automation can be maintained and extended over time. In addition to the CAD automation focus, you will contribute to the definition, implementation, and documentation of data ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) workflows and data pipelines that organize engineering and manufacturing data for reliable downstream use. You may also support machine learning model definition and implementation, including data preparation, model workflow development, and evaluation of how these methods can be applied to real engineering and manufacturing problems. Throughout the internship, you will work closely with engineering and manufacturing teams to turn project needs into maintainable software solutions in a technical semiconductor environment.

Preference will be given to candidates that can commit to a 6+ month internship, but shorter internships will also be considered.
