Business Overview 
At GE Digital, we are creating technology and solutions to enable social, mobile, analytical and cloud capabilities for the Industrial Internet. The Industrial Internet is an open, global network that connects people, data and machines. It’s about making infrastructure more intelligent and advancing the industries critical to the world we live in. At GE, we believe it’s about the future of industry—energy, healthcare, transportation, manufacturing. It’s about making the world work better. 

You will help us build highly scalable and resource-efficient algorithms, tools, and frameworks to enable large scale industrial machine learning applications. The intern will be expected to have reasonably strong skills in one area: deep learning (Python), distributed systems (Python), systems & algorithms programming (C++ with templates). 

We are seeking individuals with a strong background in computer science and programming who have a passion to build (and learn to build) software tools to support ML and data pipelines in production. At Wise, you will work closely with our top engineering team (including a number of PhDs and core contributors to open-source projects). In the past, some of our interns have stayed on to work with us after the completion of their internships. Some have gone on to work for great companies like Google. Whatever your plans, Wise@GE will be a great launching pad for your career.
