About The Position

Magnet Forensics is a global leader in the development of digital investigative software that acquires, analyzes, and shares evidence from computers, smartphones, tablets, and IoT-related devices. We are continually innovating so our customers can deploy advanced and effective tools to protect their companies, communities, and countries. Serving thousands of customers globally, our solutions are playing a crucial role in modernizing digital investigations, helping investigators fight crime, protect assets, and guard national security. With employees based around the world, Magnet Forensics has been expanding our global presence. As a part of Magnet Forensics, you can expect to make a difference in the world, no matter what role you play. You’ll be supported through learning and development, not to mention an incredible team with unbelievable talent and integrity. If you think you would be the right person to join our team working towards this goal, we would love to hear from you! Role Overview Magnet Forensics is looking for a Hardware Intern to join us for a hands-on, electronics focused internship opportunity. You will work with engineers on schematic design, PCB layout, prototype bring-up, and hardware debugging for embedded electronic systems. The work is hands-on and oriented toward hardware development on real, shipping hardware products. The ideal candidate would bring us a PCB they designed, explain why they developed it, walk us through the HW + SW design, and tell us how they got it working. Exceptional candidates would be able to talk about a problem with that circuit board - solved or unsolved - and tell us about how it got fixed (or the plan for debugging it). WHY Intern for Us/WHAT You Will Gain? - Experience working on real electronic products; - Exposure to professional hardware and embedded system development workflows; - Mentorship from experienced electrical engineers; - Practical experience in PCB design, debugging, and testing. NOTE: This Internship follows a hybrid work model; therefore, candidates must be able to commute to the Company Headquarters located in Roswell, Georgia. NOTE 2: This Internship will take place during the Summer of 2026 and will have a duration of approximately 10-12 weeks.
