Job description

Software Developer Intern

TeleWorld Solutions is seeking a motivated Software Developer Intern to join our engineering team. In this role, you will assist in enhancing the backend logic and data integration layers of our enterprise automation platform while contributing to its web-based user interface. This is a unique opportunity for a college student to gain hands-on experience working on an established, high-scale project, where you will contribute to real-world features that power global wireless networks.

You will work closely with senior developers to maintain enterprise services, optimize data processing, and ensure a seamless connection between our backend systems and our management console.

Who We Are: The Architects of What Connects Us We are TeleWorld Solutions, and we are the strategic backbone for the world's most ambitious wireless networks. We're not just consultants; we're the engineers, designers, and problem-solvers that operators, OEMs, and tower giants trust to bring their boldest visions to life. Our playground is the invisible architecture of connection—from vast macro networks to the hyper-precise world of DAS, Small Cells, and Wi-Fi. With a legacy of hundreds of thousands of successful implementations, we help our clients navigate the entire lifecycle of their network: from the first line of a design to the final optimization, and every critical decision about performance and value in between.

Why does this matter to you? As an intern, you won't just be writing scripts; you will be helping build the "brain" of a 5G network automation engine. You will learn how to handle complex data states, manage enterprise-level services, and visualize that data for network engineers. Here, your work is powered by deep, tangible engineering excellence, providing the "how" for global connectivity. Welcome to the engine room of connection. Let's build what's next.

With the experience of hundreds of thousands of successful implementations, including macro, DAS, Small Cells, and Wi-Fi, the world's leading network operators and OEMs trust our knowledge and experience to plan, perform, troubleshoot, and implement an array of technologies and solutions.

TeleWorld helps customers plan, design, manage, measure, and monetize opportunities throughout the network lifecycle and across every element of their network.

Come join our Veteran-Friendly Team. The Company with Great Benefits and certified as "A Great Place to Work".
