Applications are open for the highly competitive Software Engineering internships at Google

Applications are open for the highly competitive Software Engineering internships at Google. Apply ASAP. And internships for summer 2014 would be live by the first week of September. So start preparing!

Software Engineering Internship at Google, Fall 2013 

Locations: Mountain View, CA; New York, NY; Seattle/Kirkland, WA; and Waterloo, Ontario.

As a Software Engineer, you will work on their core products and services as well as those who support critical functions of our engineering operations. Depending on your background and experience, you will be working in one of the following areas:

• Product and Systems Development: Whether it's finding new and innovative ways to advance search quality, building computing platform and networking technologies, automating the indexing of videos, or continuing to refine and scale complex auction systems (just to name a few), you will be developing solutions to some of the most challenging technical problems out there. You will research, conceive and develop software applications to extend and improve on Google's product offerings and collaborate on scalability issues involving access to massive amounts of data and information. Examples of specialist domains: UI development with AJAX and similar technologies, security, embedded systems and mobile apps (Android), developer tools (IDEs, large-scale build systems, compilers).

• Engineering Productivity: As a software engineer in the Engineering Productivity organization, you'll use your software design, analysis and programming skills to create innovative automated testsystems. This isn't a job in which you'll simply debug and run test cases, in fact that only scratches the surface. The test team undertakes a broad range of challenges on a daily basis, designing and building intelligent systems that can explore various use cases and scenarios for distributed computing infrastructure. Just imagine trying to design and build an automated testing system for something that's never been done before. There are no text books that can help you learn this, which is why we have some of the best and brightest engineers working in this group.

• Site Reliability: Software engineers working in Site Reliability are involved in every facet of Google's production and work on the cutting edge of cloud-based computing. As a member of this elite team you are in the thick of everything involved with keeping Google running, from code-level troubleshooting of traffic anomalies to maintenance of our most cutting edge services; from monitoring and alerts to building new automation infrastructure. Software engineers on this team love to create robust and scalable software that scale to tens of millions of users. You will tackle challenging, novel situations every day, and work with just about every other engineering and operations team to provide services and applications that are quintessentially Google - fast, reliable and accessible to all.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Currently pursuing a BS or MS degree in Computer Science or related technical field.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience in systems software or algorithms
• Excellent implementation skills (C++, Java, Python)
• Knowledge of UNIX/Linux or Windows environment, and APIs.
• Familiarity with TCP/IP and network programming is a plus.
• Must be currently enrolled in a full time degree program and returning to the program after the completion of the internship
