Computer Engineering Summer Intern 2023

Link Logistics Real Estate (“Link”) owns and operates the largest U.S.-only portfolio of logistics real estate, leasing warehouse space to everyone from e-commerce giants to mom-and-pop shops. Established by Blackstone in 2019, we combine scale, cutting-edge technology, and logistics expertise to help our customers grow their businesses. Our portfolio includes more than 500 million square feet in dynamic markets nationwide. About 5 percent of U.S. GDP—translating to some $1 trillion every year—flows through the space Link customers occupy in our facilities.

Because we believe that good business must be synonymous with doing good, strong environmental, social and governance practices are foundational to our identity as a firm. These practices include setting ambitious goals to combat climate change, partnering with local nonprofits, and prioritizing internal diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. We seek to use our position, ideas and influence to drive progress in our industry and the wider world.

At Link, we give our customers space to grow—and we give people space to grow, too. Our paid 10-week summer internship program helps students gain valuable experience and develop business skills while learning the basics of commercial and industrial real estate. We offer internships in 12 departments including Capital Markets, Construction, Development, Financial Planning & Analysis, Investments, Leasing, Property Management, Marketing and more.

Link is looking for actively enrolled juniors (rising seniors) who would be interested in a Computer Engineering related internship on our Technology team this upcoming summer. Summer interns will have the opportunity to become exposed to several disciplines within the Technology organization and learn how Link uses technology as a differentiator in its Industrial Real Estate business.
