Intel's Rotation Engineers Program

Launch your engineering career working side-by-side with the industry's leading technologists on high profile projects across the corporation. Intel's Rotation Engineers Program (REP) is a full-time, 18-month technical development program for top recent college graduates with technical degrees (BS, MS, or PhD) and strong leadership skills.

Technical groups strategically and exclusively select and host program participants for three six-month rotations and provide final placement at the end of the program. Developed through the choice of rotations, as well as special training, mentoring and career coaching, rotation engineers assume influential positions as technical contributors and leaders.

Rotation selection is flexible and based on the rotation engineer's individual skills and career interests as well as the needs of the hosting group. While there's a great deal of variety among rotations they all share a common feature—each is challenging, specifically selected to provide a key experience in the growth of the engineer's career and has a direct impact on the technology development of the group.

Release the completed website to a selected set of vaccine researchers for beta testing; 5. Survey beta testers to identify shortcomings within the portal including technical flaws (e.g., programming bugs), design flaws (e.g. cumbersome or restricted navigation and/or workflow restrictions), and shortfalls in content (e.g., missing but important capabilities, weakness or poor usability of report outputs, or insufficiently detailed or accessible documentation); 6. Upload genomes to the website (Malaria, Schisotsomiasis, Dengue) and debug the interface.

Applicants should value collaboration and teamwork while also being able to work individually and prioritize multiple projects. A high degree of professionalism, customer focus, and organizational skills is required.
