IBM Internship 2026 has a fresh opening for the 2027 engineering batch. IBM India has posted an Intern / Associate Engineer role in Bangalore that works as a pre-requisition: instead of hiring for one fixed team, IBM collects applications here and then matches shortlisted students to openings across its business units.
For IBM Internship 2026, IBM names two of those units in the listing. IT Services & Consulting delivers enterprise technology and hybrid cloud work for clients, and Infrastructure & AI builds enterprise AI agents and hybrid cloud architecture. The role is tagged under Cloud, runs on a hybrid work model and is a general day shift.
Job Summary
IBM Internship 2026 – Full Job Details
The IBM Internship 2026 posting is short on day-to-day duties because the final team is decided after screening. What it does spell out clearly is who can apply, so read the eligibility section carefully before you submit. IBM lists the position as entry level, with 0 years of experience required.
IBM Internship 2026 – Software Developer Intern (Job ID 134098)
The second IBM Internship 2026 opening is a Software Developer Intern role in Bangalore (Job ID 134098). It sits inside a project linked to IBM’s automation strategy, so interns write, test and ship code alongside full-time developers and work with several stakeholder teams. IBM wants self-starters who can work with limited supervision, juggle tasks and explain their work clearly.
Unlike the Associate Engineer pre-requisition below, this listing does not restrict branches or set a CGPA cut-off. It asks for a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or an equivalent field, with a Master’s preferred, and 0 years of experience.
IBM Internship 2026 skills for the Software Developer Intern role:
- Strong command of at least one language and working fluency in a couple more – Go, Java, Python or scripting languages
- Data structures, algorithms, system analysis and design
- UI development
- Test-driven development and API-driven interfaces
- Git and GitHub for source control
- Good to have: data science or data engineering basics, and any cloud platform (IBM Cloud, AWS, Azure or GCP)
Stipend is not listed for this role either; reported IBM India intern stipends fall around ₹30,000–55,000 a month. The details further down this page cover the Intern / Associate Engineer requisition (137023).
Eligibility for IBM Internship 2026
- Pursuing BE, B.Tech, ME or M.Tech, completing the degree by May 2027
- Branch: Computer Science or Electrical and Electronics specialisations only
- Current aggregate of 6.0 CGPA or 60% or above in the degree you are pursuing
- Currently enrolled, or recently completed the qualification
- Comfortable with hybrid work from Bangalore
Branch and batch filters are strict: IBM says only CS and Electrical & Electronics branches “can apply”. Mechanical, civil, chemical and other branches are not listed, and neither are BCA, BSc or MCA students. Your degree must finish by May 2027, and you need 60% / 6.0 CGPA right now, not just at graduation.
Skills listed for IBM Internship 2026
IBM’s skill section is generic: being enrolled in or recently finishing a degree, a basic grasp of business operations, simple admin work such as data entry and record keeping, team communication, and applying classroom knowledge to real problems. Preferred extras are awareness of industry trends, small-project experience and exposure to data analysis or visualisation.
Template mismatch: those skills and the “About Business Unit” text describe IBM’s corporate headquarters functions (marketing, finance, HR), not an engineering team, even though the role is filed under Cloud and asks for CS or Electrical & Electronics engineers. IBM itself says the actual skills “may differ”. Prepare for a technical intern role, not an admin one.
IBM Internship 2026 stipend
IBM does not publish the stipend in this listing. Reported numbers for IBM India interns range from about ₹30,000 to ₹55,000 a month: AmbitionBox shows Software Developer Interns taking home roughly ₹36,000–38,000, and candidate posts mention ₹30,000 for associate developer interns. Treat this as a guide until you see your offer.
