Embedded Engineer Internship

About the Role

We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented  Embedded Engineer Intern  to join our engineering team. As an intern, you will work closely with senior engineers to design, develop, test, and optimize embedded systems for real-world applications. This role is ideal for candidates passionate about low-level programming, microcontrollers, and hardware–software integration.

Key Responsibilities

• Assist in the  development, testing, and debugging  of embedded firmware for microcontrollers (ARM, AVR, PIC, ESP32, etc.).
• Work with senior engineers to  design and integrate embedded hardware components  such as sensors, actuators, and communication modules.
• Develop and maintain  C/C++ code  for embedded platforms.
• Participate in  PCB testing, hardware bring-up, and troubleshooting.
• Collaborate on building  IoT solutions, including communication interfaces (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN).
• Help create  documentation, including design specs, test cases, and technical reports.
• Support  performance optimization, power management, and reliability testing.
• Conduct  research on new technologies, tools, and development methods.

Requirements

Required Skills

• Strong knowledge of  C/C++  programming for embedded systems.
• Understanding of  microcontroller architecture  (ARM Cortex-M, AVR, PIC, ESP32, etc.).
• Familiarity with  embedded development tools  (Keil, STM32CubeIDE, MPLAB, Arduino IDE, PlatformIO, etc.).
• Basic understanding of  electronics and circuit fundamentals  (resistors, capacitors, GPIO, ADC/DAC).
• Hands-on experience with  communication protocols: UART, SPI, I2C, PWM.
• Ability to read hardware  datasheets, schematics, and technical documentation.
• Knowledge of  RTOS concepts  (FreeRTOS or similar) is a plus.
• Problem-solving mindset with strong debugging skills using tools such as  logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and debuggers.

Preferred Qualifications

• Currently pursuing a  Bachelor's or Master's degree  in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related fields.
• Experience with  IoT platforms  (ESP32, Raspberry Pi, Arduino).
• Familiarity with  Git/GitHub  for version control.
• Knowledge of  Linux systems  and shell scripting.
• Exposure to  PCB design tools  (KiCad, Eagle, Altium) is an advantage.
• Prior internship or personal projects involving embedded systems.
