What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Engineering Intern position at Elevate Semiconductor?
About Elevate Semiconductor
At Elevate Semiconductor, we empower semiconductor and system test customers by creating world-class ICs that tackle the industry's most complex automated test equipment (ATE) challenges. Our innovative team designs the lowest-power, highest-density solutions to drive down cost of test while pushing performance forward.
We're passionate about innovation, collaboration, and continuous learning — and we're looking for the next generation of engineers to help shape the future of ATE technology.
About The Role
We are seeking a highly motivated Product Engineering Intern to join our team and gain hands-on experience in the development, qualification, and support of semiconductor products throughout their lifecycle. This is an excellent opportunity to work alongside experienced engineers across product, test, and manufacturing disciplines, contributing to real projects that impact the performance, yield, and reliability of Elevate's IC products.
Key Responsibilities
This internship runs during Q1 and Q2 of 2026 (approximately January-June) and requires an onsite commitment of about 20 hours per week.
Eligibility Requirement
Due to project requirements, candidates must be U.S. Citizens or U.S. Permanent Residents (Green Card holders).
