Join our sensing team to develop the electronics and embedded interfaces that turn tactile, force, motion, and position signals into reliable robotic behavior. You will help bring up sensing hardware on an advanced robotic glove and work closely with firmware and mechanical engineers to validate it on real systems.
Requirements
- 01 Pursuing a BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field.
- 02 Fundamentals in analog circuits, sensor interfaces, signal conditioning, and ADCs.
- 03 Experience with embedded communication interfaces such as SPI, I2C, UART, or CAN.
- 04 Hands‑on comfort with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters, and bench power supplies.
- 05 Software development experience on microcontrollers (e.g. Arduino) and basic familiarity with programming in general.
- 06 Strong debugging discipline, clear communication, and interest in working across hardware and firmware.
- 07 (+) PCB design experience in Altium.
- 08 (+) Experience with low‑noise measurement, calibration, or data acquisition systems.
- 10 (+) Exposure to capacitive, resistive, optical, strain, or force sensing technologies.
Details & responsibilities
- 01 Design and prototype PCBs for tactile, force, IMU, encoder, and position sensors.
- 02 Support schematic capture, PCB layout review, bring‑up, calibration, and characterization.
- 03 Develop firmware, test tools, and scripts for sensor acquisition, synchronization, and data quality checks.
- 04 Investigate noise, drift, bandwidth, latency, and cross‑talk issues using lab instrumentation and structured experiments.
- 05 Collaborate with mechanical and firmware engineers to integrate sensors into constrained robotic assemblies.
- 06 A Proception employee will reach out directly to schedule additional interviews.
- 07 A portfolio is recommended where relevant.
- 08 Interview process: two technical interviews and one CEO interview.
- 01 Health Insurance: Health coverage for interns.
- 02 Meals: Lunch and dinner provided.
- 03 Commuter Benefit: Assistance with local transportation costs.
- 04 Snacks and Drinks: Fully stocked office kitchen.
- 05 Immigration Support: TN sponsorship available for eligible candidates.
- 06 Career Growth: Strong potential for full-time conversion after the internship.
