QGOV Engineering Internship

Before there were smartphones or smart cities, before autonomous cars or 360 virtual reality videos, there was our technology. Headquartered in San Diego, for over 30 years Qualcomm’s inventions have inspired others to make the impossible, possible. From 5G to artificial intelligence, IoT to automotive and extended reality applications, Qualcomm is inventing the technologies of an intelligently connected future, spearheading research efforts for the next global wireless standard, and collaborating with industry leaders in the wireless value chain to make this future a commercial reality. You’re bringing skills. We’ll provide the environment and the experience to push your limitless potential. Join us for our U.S. 2025 summer intern class!

Qualcomm's Government Technologies (QGOV) division develops special products based on its wireless terrestrial and satellite communication technologies for the military, federal, local, and foreign governments. As an QGov Engineering Intern, you will support government-sponsored research, development, integration, and testing of such systems, including adaptation and extension of commercial systems to novel applications and environments, as well as internal development efforts. The individual will work on a variety of projects crossing multiple disciplines from across the company to deliver timely results to Customers. You will be responsible for working closely with other engineering disciplines to design, develop, automate, document, and execute tests. Excellent written and verbal communication skills are essential. Interns must be willing to travel occasionally and work well with others in a technical, global environment. Internship openings are available in San Diego, CA, and Boulder, CO. 

 

Successful candidates could be offered a full-time opportunity requiring a U.S. government security investigation. Applicants must therefore be U.S. citizens and meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information.  

 

 

Our interns join world-class teams to help define and build what is next for mobility and the world. You’ll be paired with a mentor with visibility to your project and team, receive support from your manager, and have access to the entire Qualcomm employee community to ensure your success. To round out your summer internship, we host professional development workshops, social events, cross-functional speaker sessions, and an executive speaker series. In addition to competitive hourly pay and accrued vacation time, you will receive relocation coverage and furnished housing accommodations for the duration of your internship.
