We need you for the position of
HARDWARE PRODUCT INNOVATION INTERNSHIP
To be an intern at Septentrio is not only a learning opportunity, but it is also a chance to put your theoretical knowledge into practice and get real industry experience. You will have a real impact, overcome challenges, and deliver valuable input. In our international environment you are treated like a professional.
Description Of The Project
GPS/GNSS positioning is becoming a common element in IoT, Autonomous and 4th revolution technology. Septentrio's GNSS products play an important role on this aspect which thanks to its accurate and flexible integration.
The internship will go over making a HardWare or System design and a high-level open-source integration for some of the most important integrations.
The work will involve some Hardware high level design/understanding as well as software understanding to make sure basic software is available to allow the integration to work.
Responsibilities Of The Intern
You will gather general requirements and come up with an innovative proposal for a new hardware product idea targeted to robotics. You also will get familiar with the ecosystem (e.g. robotics, NVIDIA SDK, Raspberry Pi, or the targeted general system) specially when integrating GPS systems. And you will evaluate possible companies doing these systems, check existing designs and pick up the best ideas from a full open-minded view.
You will make a high-level design for the system integration to allow an easy open-source (HW/SW) project. You will identify the software elements needed to make the system to work in the easiest way. You will consider the best design with cost minded view. You will produce or reproduce the electronics design hardware, 3D print or prototype the idea, document fully the design and make it available online so that community can adopt the system integration as easily as possible. The final solution should work in an intuitive way.
You
You study electrical/Electronics, Robotics or Mechatronics Engineering or Software Engineering with hardware affinity).
You have good hands-on HW design (basic PCB design, layout, etc.) and have basic Linux/Windows programming experience (understanding of software libraries or basic drivers).
Further, you are creative and Design-oriented. And you are flexible for task assignments and an independent worker, with innovative thinking.
You are the ideal candidate if you have experience with NVIDIA and Raspberry or with Autonomous vehicles or Sensor fusion.
And if you have GNSS experience or experience in making PCB designs, 3D mechanical boxes, it makes you the perfect candidate.
Preferred Timing
Any time during 2025 or beginning of 2026
Duration Of The Project
4 months (longer possible up to 6 months depending on candidate and skills)
