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 u2014 schematic capture, board bring-up, and firmware u2014 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 u2014 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

**Required 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++ u2014 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 u2014 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: Iu00b2C, SPI, UART, CAN, USB
