Verification Automation Trainee (Internship)

This trainee role sits between verification and software: you will build the scripts, regression flows and reports that keep a verification team fast and honest.

Reliable automation is what lets us run hundreds of tests, compare results over time and trust a regression summary.

What you will work on

Write Python and Make based regression runners and result parsers

Generate pass/fail and coverage summaries as readable reports

Automate repetitive environment setup and checks

Add basic continuous integration checks for lint and smoke tests

Track bugs and test status in a structured format

Document each script so teammates can use and extend it

Skills Required And How Deep

Writing automation others can maintain

Your first 90 days

First 30 daysRun the existing regression by hand and list what could be automated.

Days 31 to 60Ship a runner that executes tests and collects results.

Days 61 to 90Add a report with trends and failure grouping.

Who fits:
