Résumé du poste

imec is offering a Master internship in Leuven to explore edge data acquisition and system characterization for real-time computing. You will design a benchmarking framework and evaluate data pipelines on real platforms such as NVIDIA Jetson and Intel NUC.

The role emphasizes measuring throughput, latency, energy, and CPU usage, with a focus on optimizing data acquisition for high-performance edge systems. An Imec allowance is provided.

Qualifications

• MSc student in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Embedded Systems, or related field.
• Available for 3 months (period to be shared in application).
• Strong programming skills in Python and/or C/C++.
• Interest in system performance, embedded systems, or edge computing.
• Comfortable working with Linux-based environments.
• Analytical mindset and interest in measurement and experimentation.
• Eager to learn, take initiative, and deliver tangible results.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work independently.
• Good written and verbal English skills.
• Experience with edge devices (e.g., Jetson), data acquisition or benchmarking is a plus.

Responsabilités

• Characterize data ingestion, transport, and prep for real-time processing on edge systems.
• Design and implement a benchmarking framework for data acquisition pipelines.
• Measure throughput, latency, CPU/memory, and energy consumption.
• Analyze buffering strategies, data transfer mechanisms, and hardware interfaces (CSI, USB, Ethernet).
• Evaluate trade-offs between latency, data loss, performance, and energy efficiency.
