Job Description

About Us:

We are building next generation of motors and control systems for applications in robotics, electric vehicles, automation, and industrial motion. Our focus is on creating cost-efficient, high-performance linear and rotary actuators for OEMs across India and globally.

We’re looking for a hands-on embedded systems engineer with deep experience in PMSM and BLDC motor control, who thrives in fast-paced development cycles and wants to make a meaningful impact on real-world motion systems.


Role Overview

This internship is ideal for a student currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics, Electrical, or Robotics Engineering, with a strong interest in embedded systems and motor control. You'll work directly with our engineering team to learn and contribute to firmware development for real production and prototype hardware — not simulations or toy projects.


Key Responsibilities

  • Assist in developing and testing embedded firmware for motor control systems, including exposure to FOC (Field Oriented Control) and SVPWM algorithms.
  • Support implementation and tuning of sensored/sensorless control routines for PMSM/BLDC motors under guidance from senior engineers.
  • Work hands-on with microcontrollers such as STM32, TI C2000, or PIC for firmware development and hardware bring-up.
  • Help build and run test routines — current/voltage protection checks, stall detection, basic diagnostics.
  • Support PID loop tuning and system-level testing (current/torque/speed loops) alongside the core team.
  • Collaborate with hardware and mechanical teams during board bring-up and integration testing.
  • Maintain clear documentation of test results and contribute to version-controlled firmware repositories (Git).


Required Skills & Experience

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics/Electrical/Robotics Engineering (or related field).
  • Solid foundation in C/C++ programming and basic embedded systems concepts.
  • Coursework or project experience with microcontrollers (STM32, Arduino, TI, PIC, or similar).
  • Exposure to motor control concepts (PMSM/BLDC, PWM, PID) through coursework, projects, or personal builds is a strong plus.
  • Familiarity with basic lab tools like oscilloscopes/multimeters is a plus, though not mandatory.
  • Genuine interest in motor control, power electronics, or robotics — self-driven learners who like to tinker are a great fit.


What You Get

  • Direct, hands-on mentorship from the founding/core engineering team.
  • Real ownership on firmware features that go into actual motion platforms — not throwaway assignments.
  • Fast-paced, collaborative environment with exposure to the full hardware-to-firmware development cycle.
  • Duration: [3–6 months]
