Company Overview

Siemens Digital Industries Software is a leading provider of solutions for the design, simulation, and manufacture of products across many different industries. Formula 1 cars, skyscrapers, ships, space exploration vehicles, and many of the objects we see in our daily lives are being conceived and manufactured using our Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software.

Start your career with the Strategic Student Program (SSP)

The Strategic Student Program is our formal internship program globally. You will be mentored by guides and gain invaluable professional experience. At Siemens, SSP interns get access to an international student network and community, career development opportunities with professional growth pathways, comprehensive practical training throughout the program, access to the Siemens Learning Hub and other training materials, and the opportunity to collaborate on exciting projects within a global, diverse team. 

Topic: AI-Assisted C++ Performance Profiling and Optimization for the Simcenter Amesim Graphical User Interface.

Position Overview

Simcenter Amesim is a leading system simulation software that enables engineers to model, analyze, and optimize multi-domain physical systems across automotive, aerospace, and industrial sectors. As the software has grown in scale, features, and model complexity, maintaining a fast and fluid graphical user interface has become critical to daily engineering productivity.

This internship tackles GUI performance head-on by combining core platform engineering with cutting-edge AI assistance. During this project, you will:

Join the Simcenter Amesim platform team to investigate and improve the responsiveness of the GUI in key user workflows.

Use AI agents to analyze the codebase, locate performance bottlenecks, and propose optimizations, always backed by measurements.

Help build a feedback loop where an AI agent can run reproducible scenarios, collect timings, and compare several approaches.

Key Responsibilities

* Work with the team to define a small set of reproducible scenarios and baseline metrics that reflect customer-reported performance concerns.
* Use profiling tools to locate the slowest parts of the GUI and its underlying layers and rank them by their effect on the user experience.
* Design and implement a way to drive scenarios automatically.
* Document findings, recommendations and reusable tooling, and present the results to the development teams.

This 6-month internship is based in Villeurbanne, near Lyon (69), and starts from January 2027.

Qualifications

Currently enrolled in a Master's-level engineering program (Bac +5 / MSc or equivalent) in France, specializing in Computer Science, Software Engineering or a related field.

* Solid C++ skills; experience with Qt is a strong plus.
* Familiarity with profiling, tracing and benchmarking tools.
* Working knowledge of Python for scripting and test automation.
* Experience with, or strong interest in, AI coding assistants and agent-based workflows.
* Analytical mindset, autonomy, curiosity and good communication skills in English.
