Job Description
Who We Are
Chevron is one of the world’s leading energy companies—but what really sets us apart is how we’re rethinking energy for the future. From producing oil and gas to developing lowercarbon technologies, Chevron engineers work across the full energy system to power everyday life more safely, efficiently, and responsibly. Learn more about What We Do and The Chevron Way.
What You’ll Actually Do
Chevron is hiring at various operating locations across the U.S, including:
- El Segundo, California
- Houston, Texas
- Pasadena, Texas
- Pascagoula, Mississippi
- Richmond, California
- Salt Lake City, Utah
Civil Engineering interns will be assigned a civil engineering mentor and will be assigned one or more projects during their internship to support operating facilities through the application of technical engineering knowledge and project management skills. These areas of support may include:
- Optimizing facilities to deliver maximum value safely and reliably.
- Providing technical engineering support for turnarounds and projects.
- Developing and/or deploying industry leading technologies to reduce carbon, increase efficiency and maximize returns.
- Using digitalization and data analytics to improve process operations and safety.
Opportunities After Internship
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. Civil Engineers will be enrolled in a Civil/Structural/Marine development track to develop a core technical foundation to draw upon throughout their career. Engineers in this track will develop competencies to design, analyze, fabricate, construct, transport, install and startup offshore, onshore, and nearshore facilities, and marine systems.
Horizons engineers typically complete the development program in their first five years of employment and may have the opportunity to work in multiple work locations during that time. After graduating from Horizons, civil engineers may continue to work in roles aligned with their initial Horizons track, or they may choose to focus on other areas of interest, including:
- Reliability & Integrity Engineering – focused on asset integrity, reliability, maintainability, and operability of operating assets.
- Technical Safety Engineering - identify hazards, assess risk, and develop mitigation strategies through application of engineering design principles to a managed level of risk for operating facilities and capital projects.
- Subsea Engineering – focused on design, construction, integration, testing, and installation of subsea equipment, controls, umbilicals, and pipelines; also includes engineering for well intervention, production optimization, and reliability of the subsea system.
- Engineering Design & Projects - deliver high quality designs and predictable execution of projects through the development and application of sound engineering and design principles and processes.
- General Facilities Engineering - Support operating facilities through application of broad fundamental technical engineering knowledge and small project execution skills.
Civil Engineers have the opportunity to advance throughout their career as individual contributors or as engineering supervisors and managers. Opportunities also exist for facilities engineers to work in and lead other business functions such as Operations or Business Development & Commercial.
Why Intern at Chevron?
- You work on real projects, not side tasks
- You use modern tools and cloud platforms
- You learn how software scales in a global enterprise
- You build skills that translate anywhere
- You’re supported by experienced engineers and mentors
What’s Next After the Internship
Top performing interns may be invited back—or offered a fulltime 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.
