IT Internship

Steel Dynamics • Butler, IN

21h • Onsite

About The Position

This internship is unique compared to other IT internships because instead of creating software to be sold to external companies, interns at SDI develop and debug applications that directly serve our internal customers. This means interns work closely with employees across the company, particularly those in operations, to understand their day-to-day needs and challenges. By building software that improves internal processes and supports SDI’s workforce, interns gain firsthand experience in creating practical solutions while developing strong relationships with internal customers. This direct interaction not only strengthens communication and problem-solving skills but also provides valuable insight into how technology supports a large-scale manufacturing environment. This internship is located at the Steel Dynamics Butler Flat Roll Division, located in Butler, IN.
