the lottery is wage-weighted — each level is one more entry
The bottom of this range ($40,000) is below the Level I prevailing wage of $137,426. An H-1B cannot be filed below the prevailing wage, so an offer at the floor of this band could not be sponsored as posted.

About the role
- Meter is a vertically integrated networking company.
- Hardware, software, services, ISP, and autonomous networks run on a single data pipeline, from the local network to the data center.
- We sweat details most people never see, like the logo stamped inside the enclosure and the sound spec on our fans.
Nice to have
- Evaluate components, technologies, architectures, materials, and suppliers
- Write test plans and characterize performance, reliability, thermals, acoustics, power, and other system-level behavior
- Present your findings and recommendations to the hardware team at the end of the internship
- You're pursuing a degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, mechanical engineering, or a related technical field
- You like taking an ambiguous technical problem and breaking it into questions you can answer through engineering and experimentation
- You can explain technical findings clearly and turn your work into recommendations others can act on
- Experience with PCB design, CAD, embedded systems, thermal design, or data analysis is a plus, but none of it is required.
Compensation
- The estimated pay for this role is $40-$50 per hour. This role is also eligible for a relocation and housing stipend.
Company info
- Above all, we're looking for people who want to understand how great hardware gets built.
