Freedom to explore technical trends and breakthrough technologies through meaningful projects, while making an impact in the world. Test your limits and take on challenges.
For nearly 40 years, Altair has been grounded in a culture of four key values - envision the future, communicate honestly and broadly, seek technology and business “firsts,” and embrace diversity and risk taking. These values are core to Altair’s internship program.
Altair offers a cutting-edge internship program that fosters innovation, leadership, and a passion for making a difference. As one of the brightest, you will play a critical role in helping us turn today’s problems into tomorrow’s opportunities.
Developed with our culture in mind and focused in three areas:
We assign students a comprehensive technical project supported by lunch and learns, so they’re exposed to as much technical expertise as possible to make their project a success. Interns also able to connect with our chief technical officers to collaborate and learn about our innovations, and the industries/customers we support with our best-in-class products.
We focus on professional development skills including leadership, presentation, communication, and networking. Partnering with internal and external resources, our experts provide advice and best practices during lunch and learns specifically focused on leadership competencies, presentation skills, and personal branding.
Our program fosters a fun social experience. We play online games as a team, get to know each student’s personal story, and we bond over common topics like universities, where we grew up, and outside of work hobbies. We also include social engagements like panel discussions with employees who were once Altair interns.
