Systems Engineering Intern supporting vehicle telematics and energy-stack product development across hardware, firmware, and software integration.
About the Role We are looking for a hands-on Systems Engineering Intern to help build and evolve our vehicle telematics and energy-stack products across hardware, firmware, and software domains. You will work alongside senior engineers and OEM partners, supporting cross-functional teams (mechanical, electrical, firmware) to ensure seamless system integration and to move products from requirements through validation. You'll start by supporting core systems-engineering activities and grow into greater ownership as you ramp up.
Key Responsibilities Support the development and management of System Requirements (SOR/SRS), functional requirements, and system specifications. Assist in creating system architecture and defining system interfaces across hardware, firmware, and software. Contribute to DFMEA, risk analysis, and design-improvement activities. Help maintain requirements traceability and change management. Support the preparation of verification and validation plans; execute functional, performance, and reliability tests under guidance. Help identify system-level test cases and draft procedures for major components (powertrain, battery system, charger system, telematics). Interpret test data using basic numerical analysis to support objective decisions. Participate in design reviews, root cause analysis, and corrective actions. Create and maintain technical documentation (schematics, integration workflows, validation reports). Collaborate with cross-functional teams to support timely product development and compliance with quality processes.
Requirements 0–1 year of experience (including internships and academic/capstone projects) in Systems Engineering, embedded systems, or electrical/firmware development. Bachelor's degree (or final-year student) in Electrical, Electronics, Mechatronics, or a related engineering discipline. Exposure to requirements documentation (SOR/SRS), DFMEA, or requirements management — through coursework, projects, or internships. Foundational understanding of system integration, verification, and validation. Basic understanding of power electronics, control systems, and hardware/circuit debugging. At least one hands-on project spanning multiple domains (mechanical + electrical + hardware/firmware). Strong analytical, documentation, and communication skills, with eagerness to learn.
Good to Have MATLAB / Simulink or any other modelling or requirement-flow-down tool. Formula Student / BAJA or similar hands-on engineering-team background. Any exposure to integrated systems and a holistic, cross-platform view.
Mindset A non-compromising attitude toward product excellence, balanced with a flexible, collaborative approach and a genuine willingness to break assumptions, learn fast, and build.
