Chevron is hiring at various operating locations across the U.S, including:
Materials Engineering Interns may work in one of Chevron’s US-based refinery operations (El Segundo, Pasadena, Pascagoula, Richmond, and Salt Lake) or Chevron’s Technology, Projects and Execution team (Richmond, Houston). Mobility is encouraged as there are many opportunities for Chevron engineers to work in a variety of assignments at different domestic locations. Typical assignments include providing Materials Engineering support to refining or upstream facilities. Your duties will include material selection, reviewing specifications, performing failure analyses, corrosion studies, and metallurgy studies. You will work under the direction of a senior materials engineer. You will be expected to provide a written and oral summary of your internship, highlighting your contributions and impact.
At the completion of the internship, interns will have the opportunity to apply for a return internship or full-time position with Chevron. If accepted for a full-time entry level position, engineering graduates
will be enrolled in Chevron’s Horizons Program, an early-career development program combining formal training, on-the-job competency development, mentoring, and multiple job assignments.
What’s Next After the Internship
Top‑performing interns may be invited back—or offered a full‑time role after graduation.
New grads who join Chevron fulltime enter the Horizons Program, a structured early‑career experience that includes:
•
Formal training + on‑the‑job learning.
•
Mentorship from experienced professionals.
•
Multiple job assignments and possible location rotations.
You can build a career as a technical expert, people leader, or both.
