Electrical Engineering & AI-for-EE Intern m/f/d

Change the world. Love your job.

We're looking for an EE intern who is equally comfortable on a scope and at a terminal. Over six months, you'll work on real hardware — schematic capture, board bring-up, and firmware — while also helping us push the frontier of how AI accelerates EE workflows. A meaningful portion of the work involves using AI coding agents (specifically Claude Code) to speed up firmware development, test automation, and design verification. The longer internship window means you'll own a project end-to-end, from spec through bring-up to validation. If you've already been using LLMs to build embedded systems and want to do that as your day job for half a year, this role is for you.

What you will do

• Contribute to schematic design, PCB layout review, and bring-up of new hardware revisions

• Write and debug low-level embedded firmware (bare-metal or RTOS) for ARM Cortex-M class microcontrollers

• Develop board bring-up scripts, hardware-in-the-loop test fixtures, and automated validation tooling

• Use Claude Code to accelerate firmware development, generate driver scaffolding, write tests, and assist with debugging

• Help build internal AI-assisted workflows for EE tasks — e.g., agentic schematic review, datasheet querying, register-map generation, or test-vector synthesis

• Take a hardware/firmware project from definition through validation over the course of the 6-month engagement

• Document designs, decisions, and lessons learned for the broader hardware team

Qualifications

• Currently pursuing a BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related field, with availability for a continuous 6-month full time internship

• Hands-on hardware design experience: schematic capture, component selection, and PCB design (Altium, KiCad, or equivalent)

• Demonstrated low-level embedded software experience in C or C++ — register-level peripheral programming, interrupt handling, debugging with JTAG/SWD, and reading ARM datasheets/reference manuals

• Practical experience using Claude Code (or comparable agentic coding tools) on a non-trivial project — bonus if that project involved embedded or systems work

• Comfort with lab instruments: oscilloscope, logic analyzer, multimeter, DC supply, soldering

• Strong fundamentals in digital and analog circuit design

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with at least one RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, ThreadX) or bare-metal scheduling

• Familiarity with common embedded protocols: I²C, SPI, UART, CAN, USB

• Python proficiency for test automation, instrument control (PyVISA), or data analysis

• Exposure to DFT/DFM, signal integrity, or power integrity considerations

• Prior work integrating LLMs into engineering workflows — prompt engineering, MCP servers, agent harnesses, or eval pipelines for technical tasks

• Open-source contributions to embedded, EDA, or AI tooling projects

Our offer for you:

• Benefit from an attractive compensation

• Join an international work environment where your ideas count and where you can thrive in a diverse culture

• Explore a world of opportunities for your personal and professional development
