Introduction: A Career at HARMAN Automotive

We’re a global, multi-disciplinary team that’s putting the innovative power of technology to work and transforming tomorrow. At HARMAN Automotive, we give you the keys to fast-track your career.

• Engineer audio systems and integrated technology platforms that augment the driving experience
• Combine ingenuity, in-depth research, and a spirit of collaboration with design and engineering excellence
• Advance in-vehicle infotainment, safety, efficiency, and enjoyment

About the Role

At HARMAN, we recognise that effective collaboration and adaptability are critical elements in delivering value to our customers.

As a member of our Build and Integration (B&I) team, you will support DevOps and CI/CD ways of working used to build, test, and deliver software reliably. You will work with tooling such as Git/Gerrit, Jenkins, Linux, and scripting to help maintain and improve our CI/CD toolchains and automation.

This is a 6‑month internship (full‑time or part‑time) with a hybrid working model; on‑site preferred (Bucharest) due to collaboration with engineers and CI/CD workflow needs.

What You’ll Gain

• Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines and build & integration workflows used in real automotive software projects.
• Mentorship from engineers working on build systems, automation, and integration quality.
• Practical scripting experience (Python/Groovy/Bash) to automate build flows and adjacent tasks.
• Potential pathway to a long‑term role based on performance and business needs.

What You Will Do

• Understand and work with CI/CD pipelines, including automated testing and quality checks.
• Support continuous delivery pipelines with Jenkins and help improve pipeline reliability.
• Help maintain our build environment and manage access/permissions under guidance.
• Monitor our version control system (Git/Gerrit) and support day-to-day integration needs.
• Measure and monitor CI/CD performance; support dashboards/metrics and continuous improvement.
• Develop and enhance scripts to automate the build flow and adjacent tasks.
• Use AI-assisted tools to accelerate scripting, debugging, log triage, and documentation—always validating outputs and handling data responsibly.

What You Need to Be Successful

• Basic understanding of CI/CD concepts (pipelines, automated build/test, quality gates) and a strong interest in going deeper fast.
• Demonstrable scripting ability (e.g., Python and/or Bash) through coursework or projects.
• Familiarity with version control (Git) and collaborative workflows.
• Comfort working in a Linux environment.
• Networking/troubleshooting mindset: basic familiarity with debugging connectivity issues (logs, permissions, endpoints, simple TCP/IP/DNS intuition).
• Comfortable using AI-assisted tools to improve productivity in DevOps workflows (scripting, debugging, analysis, documentation) with disciplined validation.
• Evidence of excellence through strong academic performance and/or meaningful projects (CI pipelines, automation scripts, Linux tooling).

Bonus Points if You Have

• Exposure to Jenkins pipelines and/or Gerrit workflows.
• Experience with Python, Groovy, and Bash used for CI/CD automation.
• Interest in modern automation infrastructure deployment concepts.

What Makes You Eligible

• Hybrid working model; on‑site preferred (Bucharest).

What We Offer

• Flexible work environment, allowing for full-time remote work globally for positions that can be performed outside a HARMAN or customer location
• Access to employee discounts on world-class products (JBL, HARMAN Kardon, AKG, and more)
• Extensive training opportunities through our own HARMAN University
• Competitive wellness benefits
• “Be Brilliant” employee recognition and rewards program
• An inclusive and diverse work environment that fosters and encourages professional and personal development
