Ever wondered what actually happens under the hood when a system writes data to a disk, or how Linux manages massive storage arrays without breaking a sweat? The Red Hat Platform Storage Team in Brno is looking for a curious intern to dive deep into the internals of RHEL and Fedora. You won't be fetching coffee or running dummy tests; you will write C and Python, maintain continuous integration (CI) pipelines, and push real code to upstream open-source communities. This long-term internship is a hands-on masterclass in how enterprise Linux distributions are built, maintained, and delivered to millions of users worldwide.
At Red Hat, you’ll work in an environment that welcomes diverse perspectives, values great ideas, and empowers individuals to contribute meaningfully. Freedom and courage are two of our core values — which means you’ll have the space to take risks, explore the unknown, and grow your strengths. But being a Red Hatter is not just about bravery; it’s also about commitment and follow-through.
Red Hat’s Intern Program is a collaborative effort between the Emerging Talent team and our intern managers. The program is designed to offer a meaningful and well-rounded experience — combining professional development, networking opportunities, social engagement, and impactful work. This is a paid, part-time internship based in the Brno office, with flexible working hours. The expected start date is February 2027.
