Summer internships at IBM Quantum are part of the IBM Research Global Internship Program, providing interns with a chance to contribute to the IBM Quantum Development Roadmap. Since 2020, IBM Quantum has trained over 400 interns across various education levels. Many of these interns have built careers at IBM Quantum or in the broader quantum field after graduation. Interns collaborate with researchers, developers, and business experts dedicated to advancing quantum computing.
The recruitment is open for three roles: software developer, hardware engineer, and research scientist. These internships will take place in the summer of 2024. In the US, interns can choose between locations in New York and California, with varying internship periods. International opportunities will be announced soon.
While prior quantum computing knowledge is not required, candidates are encouraged to familiarise themselves with Qiskit. IBM Quantum has revamped its IBM Quantum Learning platform, providing easier access to quantum computing skills development and enhancing candidates' competitiveness.
IBM Quantum's internship program equips students with skills, networks, and career pathways in the quantum field. Past internships included the Qiskit Global Summer School, poster sessions, and fireside chats with IBM Quantum's Jay Gambetta.
Former interns have praised the program for its skill-building opportunities. Arian Noori, a graduate student from the University of Wisconsin, highlighted practical skills and insights gained during his quantum hardware engineering internship. Danielle Odigie, an undergraduate from Columbia University, found fulfilment as a quantum software intern, contributing to software development connecting programmers to quantum technology.
