#Discover I 2027-2028 Software Engineering DevOps, Test Automation & AI Agents Intern

Job Description:

Ready to join one of our Graduate Programs in Spain?

AIRBUS offer more than 70 vacancies for our full time graduate program in Spain - #Discover I 2027/2028 - Starting date March 2027 until February 2028.

We are looking for recent graduates from different disciplines interested in developing their professional career in the aeronautical sector. The current context demands different ways of looking, thinking and relating.

The selection process will be during October 2026 until January 2027.

What does this internship consists in?

Together with Camilo José Cela University, Airbus has developed an exclusive program (Discover) designed for those interested in the best training in new areas of knowledge essential to be able to develop as professionals of the future.

You will have the opportunity to study a Master, organized in three training blocks, that will allow you to Discover the skills most in demand today. It will be combined with an 11 month internship at Airbus in an area related to your degree, where you can learn and complete your academic background.

The start of the internship will be in early October 2026, and will last 11 months (August disabled for all purposes). It is a full-time experience (40h/week), in which you will receive an attractive study grant.

Internship Job Description:

This is an ideal opportunity if you are looking for a truly hands-on technical internship—far from repetitive tasks—where you will learn how mission-critical software is built, compiled, and validated in a cutting-edge professional environment.

What You Will Learn and Do:

• AI Agent Development: Experiment with building AI-powered assistants and automated workflows (in Python) to support the team with real tasks such as log analysis, code reviews, and failure diagnostics.
• Synthetic Test Scenario Generation with AI: Explore the use of AI agents to automatically design and generate complex test cases and edge-case scenarios in Python to stress-test mission software and uncover hidden defects.
• Linux Environment Evolution: Collaborate on updating, maintaining, and improving our development and testing toolchains on Linux systems.
• Automation & CI/CD: Learn to configure and optimize Continuous Integration pipelines, ensuring C++ and Python codebases are compiled and tested automatically and rapidly.
• Containers & Virtualization: Work with technologies like Docker to create clean, reproducible testing and simulation environments.

State-of-the-Art Tech Challenges You Can Explore:
We aren't looking for someone to just do routine maintenance; we want you to help us explore the state of the art in mission systems engineering:

• Sovereign / On-Premise AI: Researching and deploying local LLM models on isolated (air-gapped) Linux servers with full data privacy.
• Smart Simulation & Testing: Generating synthetic data and scenarios with AI to validate complex systems, and containerizing Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) environments.
• Next-Gen Software Engineering: Exploring deterministic build tools, advanced static analysis for safety-critical C++, and automated fuzzing.

Required skills #AirbusDiversity

As a successful candidate, you will be able to demonstrate the following skills and experience:

• Degree in Computer Science, Telecommunications Engineering, Data Science, or a related field
• Level B2 English.
