Google Engineering and Technical Internships 2027

Google has opened applications for its Engineering and Technical Internships 2027, providing students around the world with opportunities to gain practical experience while working on challenging technology projects. The internships are designed for students interested in engineering, software development, user experience and product management, with opportunities available across different locations and teams. Application deadlines vary according to the internship and location.

The programme gives interns the opportunity to become part of Google teams and contribute to projects from the beginning. Technical interns work on real problems involving technology, computing, product development and large scale systems while developing professional and technical skills in a highly collaborative environment.

Available opportunities include Software Engineering, User Experience and Associate Product Manager internships. Google states that Software Engineering internships are available globally for undergraduate and graduate or PhD students, while User Experience and Associate Product Manager opportunities have requirements and application timelines that vary by location.

About the Internship

Google Engineering and Technical Internships bring students into teams working on significant technology and product challenges. Depending on the role, interns may contribute to software development, site reliability, user experience design, product development or other technical projects.

For Software Engineering internships, students can work on projects involving software systems, algorithms, infrastructure, artificial intelligence, machine learning, distributed systems, applications and other areas of computer science. Google describes its software engineering internships as opportunities to work on complex computer science solutions and develop scalable software systems.

Google also offers User Experience internships where interns can contribute to the design and development of products used by people around the world. Associate Product Manager internships provide exposure to both technical and business functions, allowing interns to work with engineers while collaborating across areas such as sales, marketing and finance.

Specific internship duration and working arrangements depend on the individual position. For example, a current Google Software Engineering Intern posting describes a paid internship lasting approximately 12 to 14 weeks, although applicants should rely on the individual job description for the exact conditions of each position.

Internship Areas

Software Engineering

Software Engineering internships are available for undergraduate and graduate or PhD students. Interns may work on software development projects involving algorithms, infrastructure, artificial intelligence, machine learning, distributed systems, networking, security, applications and other areas of computing.

User Experience

User Experience internships provide opportunities to contribute to product design and development. Interns can work on experiences that affect large numbers of users while developing skills in design and technology.

Associate Product Manager

Associate Product Manager internships connect technical and business functions. Interns work with engineers and collaborate with teams across areas such as sales, marketing and finance while developing product leadership skills.

Eligibility Criteria

• Open to undergraduate and graduate or PhD students around the world, depending on the specific internship

• Applicants must meet the academic and technical requirements stated in the individual job description

• Applicants must be available to participate in all required components of the internship

• Software Engineering applicants should have relevant software development or technical experience

• Some Software Engineering roles require experience with programming languages and computer science concepts such as data structures and algorithms

• Applicants must satisfy any location or work authorization requirements stated for the position

• English proficiency may be required for specific roles

Required Application Materials

The exact materials depend on the internship and location. Google generally requests:

• Updated resume or CV

• Expected graduation date shown on the resume

• Current or recent undergraduate or graduate transcript

• Course list where a transcript is not available

• Additional information requested in the individual job description

For current Software Engineering internship applications, Google asks candidates to submit an updated CV or resume and a current unofficial or official transcript in English.

Applicants should ensure that their resume clearly presents their education, technical skills, programming experience, projects, research experience and other qualifications relevant to the position.

Selection Process

Applications are reviewed according to the requirements of each internship. Because the programme includes positions across different countries and teams, selection criteria and application timelines can differ considerably.

Some positions use rolling recruitment. Google advises applicants to apply early because roles can close once available projects have been filled. For example, the current United States Software Engineering Intern position for bachelor’s students states that applications are reviewed on a rolling basis and that the application window may close earlier if available projects become full.

Applicants should therefore avoid waiting until the final day to submit an application where a position is already open.

How to Apply

1. Review the Google Engineering and Technical Internship opportunities and identify positions that match your academic background and interests.
2. Read the complete job description for your selected internship and confirm the academic, technical, location and availability requirements.
3. Prepare an updated resume that clearly shows your education, graduation date, technical skills, projects, research and relevant experience.
4. Prepare your current undergraduate or graduate transcript or an acceptable course list where applicable.
5. Submit your application through the official Google Careers application page for the selected internship.
6. Complete all additional questions or requirements included in the individual job description.
7. Apply as early as possible, particularly for positions using rolling recruitment, because some opportunities may close before their stated application window ends.
