Software Intern (Autonomous Vehicle Retrofit)

Main goal Develop ROS 2 control software that converts a low‑speed campus EV’s brake, throttle or steering into a closed‑loop drive‑by‑wire subsystem running on an NVIDIA Jetson. Companion project This software role runs  in parallel with a separate Mechatronics‑Hardware internship  (see “Autonomous Vehicle Retrofit – Hardware” on Riipen). If you prefer to work as a pair with a hardware‑focused teammate, mention it in your application. Key tasks Tool scan (OSCC, raptor‑dbw‑ros2). Evaluate linear‑actuator vs. DAC throttle schemes. Collaborate with hardware intern on sensor limits. Integrate CAN messages with Telebotics safety ECU.

Software Engineering Intern (Autonomous Vehicles)

Telebotics is focused on advancing its AI Driver for low-speed vehicles, aiming to enhance its teleoperation system and basic autonomy features. This project invites a team of software engineering students to apply their programming skills in Python and/or C++ to improve sensor and software integration. The goal is to develop and test teleoperation features using ROS/ROS2 and simulation tools like Gazebo. Students will engage in building and running simulations to evaluate system performance. The project provides an opportunity to work in a startup-like environment, fostering a problem-solving mindset. The team will also support the integration and validation process in collaboration with hardware teams, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of both software and hardware interactions.

Hardware Intern (Autonomous Vehicle Retrofit)

Main goal Retrofit a low‑speed campus EV’s pedals and steering column with commercial linear actuators and a worm‑gear DC motor; produce CAD brackets and wiring harnesses. Companion project This hardware role runs  alongside a Control‑Software internship  (see “Autonomous Vehicle Retrofit – Software” on Riipen). If you’d like to pair up with a software‑focused learner, please note it in your cover letter. Key tasks Select actuators and motor. Compare COTS vs. custom hardware ROI. Coordinate sensor pin‑outs with software intern. Fit brackets to vehicle chassis and test.
