Join us for a unique 10-12 week paid internship that offers personal and professional development, an executive speaker series, and community-building.

As a Hardware Engineering Intern, you will develop system and subsystem boards for next generation server and storage products. The teams you work with design, develop, and deploy next generation server and storage machine products while ensuring that this equipment is reliable. You’ll work closely with engineers to improve our hardware to meet Google's standards of quality and reliability, and your work has the potential to impact many of Google users.

Google is and always will be an engineering company. We hire people with a broad set of technical skills who are ready to address some of technology's greatest challenges and make an impact on millions, if not billions, of users. At Google, engineers not only revolutionize search, they routinely work on massive scalability and storage solutions, large-scale applications and entirely new platforms for developers around the world. From Google Ads to Chrome, Android to YouTube, Social to Local, Google engineers are changing the world one technological achievement after another.

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis and it’s in the applicant's best interest to apply early. The anticipated application window is open until April 30, 2027, but may close earlier if all available projects are full. Applications submitted after the application window or once role is closed/projects are full will not be considered.

Participation in the internship program requires that you are located in the Taiwan for the duration of the internship program.

This internship is intended for students who are currently pursuing a PhD degree program in Reliability Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.

Google is a global company and, in order to facilitate efficient collaboration and communication globally, English proficiency is a requirement for this internship program.
