SENIORITY
Intern
About the role
The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory seeks motivated engineering interns to prototype, evaluate, and improve mission‑relevant communication systems. You'll join a team that values curiosity, teamwork, and learning across subject areas.
Study areas include Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Electrical Engineering; you will develop skills in RF, SDR, and GNURadio, while gaining Linux-based integration and automation experience to support national security missions.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
