At Intel's 5G Innovation Center in Stockholm, we develop 5G, AI and intelligent edge proof of concepts in collaboration with eco-system partners. The projects serve to demonstrate thought leadership, drive innovation, enable industry transformation and provide an end-to-end experience of how technology can transform and benefit the society. We strive to be an inspiration to the industry through marketing and events as well as proof-of-concepts and collaboration projects. We believe innovation is a team sport, with blend of experience and new ideas. (https://5gic.intel.com/)

Therefore, we open 2 roles for a thesis project with duration March-June 2022. This is a 10 week Bachelor Level thesis project, and will be conducted in a pair.

We seek a pair of visionaries - energetic, driving, enthusiastic persons with commercial veins. Likely, you aim to build a technical and business driven career, with international aspirations.

This is a great opportunity to join a technical and innovation powerhouse - Intel - and become part of an ecosystem that is shaping the future.

The thesis workers will be part of the greater 5GIC team and operate hands-on in one of the major use cases currently developed. They will be mentored directly from the 5GIC leadership and build an extensive network with other Intel and external teams, as part of the project. The project objective is to get a commercialization framework in place when moving from a proof of concept to full scale deployment. We need help to analyse the financials around mass deployment, while also accounting for sustainability goals, societal impact, and personal integrity.

The assignment and what your application needs to contain:

Please visit the website: https://5gic.intel.com/ 

There, you will find a set of available use cases. We want you to consider one of them of your choice and prepare a plan (your project plan) towards it.

The plan needs to account for:
- Financial model impact of deploying at scale (local, regional, global).
- How usage of key underlying technologies (AI, Cloud, Security) can be assessed in value drivers (value to society, companies, individuals)
- A clear link to at least one of United Nations 17 sustainability goals (https://sdgs.un.org/goals) with objective to ensure that commercialization is in direct support of UN's direction.
- Be expressed in less than two A4 pages.

While above holds a level of ambiguity, it will also test your ability to shape a project, express your thinking, and motivate your framework. Very typical in a start-up, entrepreneurial environment.

This is a fixed-term (10 weeks) contract for duration of the thesis project. There is no promise of employment upon closure. References/recommendations from Intel are natural part of successful delivery in the project.

Important: You will need to apply individually, with your own CVs and attach a shared project proposal plan.

We welcome you to join us in this exciting journey!
