Technical Services Co-op

Location: Boston, MA Department: Internships

InterSystems is seeking motivated students for multiple co-op openings within our Technical Services organization. Opportunities are available across networking, cybersecurity, enterprise systems, and general IT. Technical Services supports the infrastructure, systems, security, networks, applications, and technology services that enable InterSystems to operate globally.

Each co-op combines hands-on technical experience, mentorship from experienced IT professionals, and ownership of a defined project with a meaningful outcome. Students will contribute to important IT work while developing practical skills, confidence, independence, and a strong foundation for continued professional growth.

Areas of Opportunity

Networking: Help build, secure, and troubleshoot the connectivity that keeps a global company running. Gain hands-on experience with enterprise wired and wireless networks, routing and switching, firewalls, network monitoring, performance, reliability, and automation, while contributing to projects that improve how people and systems connect.

Cybersecurity: Work alongside security professionals to help identify and respond to real-world threats. Gain experience with security monitoring, vulnerability management, threat investigation, security controls, remediation, and improving the organization’s security posture.

Enterprise Systems: Gain hands-on experience with the technology behind enterprise-scale IT services, including Windows and Linux, cloud and data-center technologies, identity, enterprise applications, monitoring, automation, reliability, and infrastructure operations.

General IT: Develop broad experience across corporate technology while solving real problems for users and the business. Work with endpoints, hardware and software, systems administration, automation, IT service management, and technologies that improve the employee experience.

Mentorship and Project Experience

Co-op students will work directly with experienced Technical Services professionals who provide technical guidance, mentorship, and exposure to enterprise IT practices. Each student will also take ownership of a defined project related to their primary area of focus.

The project will address a real InterSystems technology or operational need and give the student an opportunity to explore a subject in depth, apply what they are learning, solve problems, and demonstrate increasing technical ownership. By the end of the co-op, students should have made a meaningful contribution to InterSystems and strengthened their technical capabilities and professional credibility.
