Summer Internship 2027 - Field Application

Trondheim, Norway

Dive into innovation and creativity with us!

Are you ready to put your technical skills to work where it really counts: in the water? As a part of Water Linked's Summer Internship, you'll join our Field Application team, the people who make sure our cutting-edge underwater sensors perform when it matters most: out at sea. While the specific project details are still being finalized, you'll most likely be part of a larger project that combines hands-on testing with structured data gathering and analysis.

We believe in fostering a strong learning environment where you can apply your academic knowledge to practical tasks, all while being guided by experienced engineers. As an intern, you could be integrating our sensors onto ROVs and other underwater vehicles, planning and carrying out tests, analysing data to understand how our sensors perform, and digging into technical issues when things don't go as planned.
