Linux Foundation Networking (LFN) is looking to engage student developers in open source software
development, with opportunities to gain hands on experience, by working with the industry’s leading technologists contributing to Industry leading open source networking projects (OPNFV, ONAP, FD.io, ODL etc…). We welcome interns from anywhere in the world.
LFN Internships are for University or College students who are interested in contributing to real-world impactful Open Source projects. Each intern will be working with a mentor from the LFN project community to complete a project either in 3 months (full time 40 hours a week) or 6 months (part time 20 hours a week). This is a paid internship program that accepts applications throughout the year and the internship projects start on a quarterly schedule (e.g. Jan 1, April 1, June/July 1, and September 1). As an open source project, each intern will work remotely from his or her location of choice.
