The Companies
Work with the best engineers, early
Residencies place ISE students inside your engineering team as paid contributors for three to six months at a time, real work, real impact, with academic mentoring alongside.
Where students reside
From global platforms to Ireland's fastest-growing startups
ISE partners span fintech, medtech, robotics, quantum and more, the companies students join as paid contributors.
What a residency is
Not an internship. A contribution.
Students join your team as paid contributors on real work, supported by ISE's academic mentors and a structured learning framework around the placement.
Paid contributors
Students are paid and expected to do real, shippable engineering work, not shadowing.
Three to six months
Long enough to onboard, take ownership and deliver, across up to five residencies per student.
Fully supported
Academic mentors and a learning framework wrap around every placement, sharing the load with your team.
