About The Position

At ST Engineering iDirect, we’re reshaping the future of global connectivity. As a leader in satellite communications, our groundbreaking technology empowers customers to grow, innovate, and transform their networks. Here, your skills and passion meet our vision and expertise to create something extraordinary. If you're ready to tackle technology’s biggest challenges and redefine how the world connects, the most exciting chapter of your career awaits. With ST Engineering iDirect, the sky isn’t the limit—it’s just the beginning! We’re looking for a curious, inventive, and technically sharp intern to help us push the boundaries of automated testing using Agentic AI. This isn’t a “watch and learn” internship — it’s a hands‑on, build‑real‑systems kind of role. You’ll explore how autonomous AI agents can replicate, execute, and self‑heal test cases for our NMS API and UI. By the end of the internship, you’ll deliver a suite of 10+ fully automated NMS test cases managed by an AI agent capable of diagnosing failures, determining whether the issue lies in the script or the test fixture, and fixing it before escalating to the team. In other words: you’ll help us build the future of resilient, intelligent test automation.
