Boeing Summer 2027 Internship Program (Paid) – Security & Fire Operation (S&FO)

Company:

Launch your career with Boeing, celebrated by WayUp as a Top 100 Internship Program in the US for 2026! We are seeking motivated, enthusiastic, and innovative students to join our 2027 intern program.

Boeing is the world's largest aerospace company and leading manufacturer of commercial jetliners, defense, space and security systems, and service provider of aftermarket support. We are engineers and technicians. Skilled scientists and thinkers. Bold innovators and dreamers. Join us, and build something better for yourself, for our customers and for the world.

In more than 65 countries, you’ll find our people working on advances like remarkable aircraft comprised mostly of composite materials. Versatile and powerful jet fighters and rotorcraft that explore new uses of technology. Aircraft powered by hydrogen and biofuels. And even blended wing body and hybrid-electric aircraft.

Today, because of our amazing people and powerful technologies, our products connect the globe, protect freedom, and advance scientific discovery around the world.  From the depths of the ocean, to Mars and beyond, we're inspiring the next century of explorers – we invite you to join us on the journey ahead!

The Boeing Security & Fire Operations (S&FO) is seeking talented, forward-thinking students ready to join our energetic team, gaining hands-on experience across corporate site security, aviation security, emergency preparedness, business resilience, and fire protection engineering. As an intern, you will contribute to real-world projects in your specific function all while supporting daily operations in risk assessments, monitoring access control and camera systems, airport/airfield security protocols, and compliance documentation. This is a unique opportunity to work cross-functionally with facilities, operations, legal, and emergency response teams, and to see how layered protection strategies come together to keep people and operations safe.

In this role you’ll help design and test emergency exercises and business continuity playbooks, analyze vulnerabilities and mitigation options, and assist in industrial fire engineering assessments. You’ll learn to translate technical findings into clear briefings for stakeholders, support aviation security audits and access-control improvements, and contribute to after-action reports that shape future resilience. Ideal candidates are curious, detail-oriented, and driven by purpose—ready to learn complex systems, think creatively under pressure, and make a measurable impact on organizational safety and continuity.

As an intern at Boeing, you’ll gain hands-on experience, learn from experts, and collaborate with teams that do truly amazing things.
 
Over the course of our 10-12-week internship experience you will have the opportunity to:

  • Work directly with a mentor in your field of study while finding solutions to real world problems
