From Wing's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Wing offers drone delivery as a safe, fast, and sustainable solution for last mile logistics. Consumer appetites for on-demand services are increasing, but current delivery methods are inefficient, costly, and contribute to road accidents and air pollution. Wing’s fleet of highly automated delivery drones can transport small packages directly from businesses to homes on-demand, in minutes. We design, build, and operate our aircraft, and offer drone delivery services on two continents.
Our technology is designed to be easy to integrate into existing delivery and logistics networks, offering a scalable drone delivery solution for a broad range of businesses. Wing is a part of Google's parent company, Alphabet, and our mission is to create the preferred means of delivery for the planet. If you're ready to do the greatest work of your life, come join us.
Join Wing's 12-week paid summer internship! This is a hybrid, in-person program based in Palo Alto, CA, with start dates in May or June. Eligible candidates must be a current student enrolled in a degree program and intend to return to the program after the completion of the summer internship.

Design, develop, and test backend software solutions in C++ that directly impact how we manage our delivery network topology, allocate fleet resources, and coordinate autonomous flight operations.
Build and enhance core backend services and APIs that manage geospatial network locations and turn requests to move aircraft or packages into safe, coordinated drone missions.
Collaborate with engineers across Execution & Topology and partner teams to build reliable features, integrate seamlessly with existing distributed systems, and improve developer and operational workflows.
Tackle the unique, real-world challenges of autonomous drone delivery by writing well-tested, maintainable production code that enables our network to adapt to dynamic physical environments.
