About the Role
As a Mission Ops Engineering intern, you'll work side by side with customers building rocket engines, satellites, and aircraft, helping them solve hard test and operations problems with Nominal's platform. You'll see what it takes to deploy software into a live test environment, write code that gets customer data flowing, and turn what you learn into product feedback that shapes what we build next.
Responsibilities
- Write scripts and tooling to deploy, configure, and connect customer data to Nominal's platform
- Sit in on customer conversations and training sessions to learn how operators use our tools day to day
- Help troubleshoot issues customers run into and document the fixes for the team
- Turn what you observe in the field into structured feedback for the product team
- Own a self-contained project over the summer that improves a specific part of a customer's workflow
Requirements
- On track to graduate by Summer 2028 and open to a full-time role afterward
- Hands-on experience with hardware systems — test stands, robotics, aerospace, automotive, or similar — through coursework, research, personal projects, or prior internships
- Written code (Python or similar) for a class, research, or personal project, and want to use it on real hardware data
- Communicate clearly and want to work directly with the people who'll use what you build
- Comfortable stepping into unfamiliar technical environments and figuring out what's needed
- Genuine interest in hardware testing and the industries Nominal serves
- Must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
