And delivers record business results and confirmed one of the “World’s most powerful brands”. 

Above all Ferrari is an international team (with 60+ nationalities) working with the highest level of professionalism and dedication, based on performance, meritocracy and continuous development, with innovation at the heart of our future.

We are looking for a dedicated intern in our R&D department inside the Vehicle Testing team. The internship aims to provide support to the Ordinary and Performance Press activities involving vehicles from the dedicated fleet, ensuring their smooth and effective execution.

The intern will contribute technical and operational support both during vehicle preparation phases and post-activity restoration, actively supporting first-level diagnostics of detected anomalies, as well as the planning and implementation of the necessary corrective actions.

The role involves hands-on participation, with a proactive and problem-solving approach, working in close collaboration with the involved teams to ensure continuity and successful execution of Press activities.

You will cooperate in different activities, including:

• Taking part in testing and experimental activities on running vehicles, actively contributing to vehicle preparation, approval processes, first-level diagnostics of anomalies, and restoration management.
