The Internship Programme at Graphcore
Explore a career at Graphcore through a 12-week summer internship, gaining hands-on experience on real projects. You’ll bring fresh ideas, put your learning into practice and help shape what we’re creating. Along the way, you’ll tackle challenging problems with a team who welcome your questions and support you as you build your skills and confidence.
What you’ll be doing
Put your Linux and scripting foundations to work exploring the cloud platforms that support Graphcore’s AI systems.
As a Cloud Platform Engineering Intern, you’ll help deploy, test and monitor services across private and public cloud environments. You’ll contribute through clearly scoped tasks, with guidance from experienced engineers as you build confidence.
Your tasks could include writing or improving scripts, reviewing metrics and logs, investigating issues and documenting what you learn. You’ll see how automation and monitoring help the team manage high-performance AI infrastructure and how continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) and Infrastructure-as-Code are used in real systems.
Your team and support
The Cloud Platform team provides large-scale AI systems through private and public cloud services. Its work brings together Graphcore AI systems, industry-standard servers, switches and storage. Some environments use pre-release hardware and software, giving you a view of how new technology becomes usable.
You’ll work alongside experienced engineers through sprint activities, technical reviews, project demonstrations and practical investigations. You can ask for help as you learn, share your progress and use feedback to improve your work on defined tasks.
Decisions are shaped by evidence, engineering judgement and open discussion. As an intern, you’ll be encouraged to ask questions early, share what you find and try out ideas, with support from experienced engineers as you learn.
How you’ll learn and grow
Over the 12 weeks, you’ll build practical experience with Linux systems, scripting, automation and monitoring through the work your tasks focus on.
Investigating issues with logs and metrics will help you develop a methodical approach to problem solving and understand how cloud services fit together. Technical reviews and project demonstrations will help you explain your findings, learn from feedback and explore whether platform engineering is a direction you’d like to pursue.
Your internship is a chance to explore a future at Graphcore. Depending on your performance and the roles available, there may be an opportunity to join one of our graduate programmes once you’ve graduated.
What we’re looking for
Currently studying towards a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, IT, Electronic Engineering or a related subject
Basic Linux and command-line experience, gained through study, projects or independent learning
Some scripting or programming experience, such as Python, Bash or a similar language
A methodical approach to investigating technical issues, with clear communication, curiosity and willingness to learn from feedback and take responsibility for defined tasks
Bring an interest in cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, networking, CI/CD, monitoring or computer systems.
Previous industry experience is not required. Tell us what you built or investigated through coursework, personal or team projects, independent learning or other relevant experience, how you approached it and what you learned.
