Job responsibilities

  • Embedded interns own a variety of big problems integral to our system! Examples of previous projects included:
  • Building an RF radio test setup to validate antenna performance of the flight compute at the production end-of-line.
  • Develop firmware for a real-time coprocessor that manages high-frequency signals and I/O expansion for the Linux camera subsystem.
  • Building a high data rate voltage and current telemetry system that runs continuously in our RTOS using ADCs, I2C devices and GPIO interrupts.
  • Rapidly iterating on the concept of a new perception system, integrating compute modules and sensor prototypes to fly a proof of concept ASAP and de-risk key aspects of the approach.
  • Working with operations teams to identify ways to improve our ground systems behavior to enable faster aircraft launch and landing.
