Job description

# Robotics Software (ROS 2) InternSix months on the autonomy stack behind our agri rovers and warehouse AMRs — ROS 2 nodes, sensor bring-up and field runs on real hardware, not only in simulation.## What you will do* Write and test ROS 2 nodes in Python and C++ for navigation, teleoperation and sensor handling.* Bring up sensors — IMU, GNSS, lidar and depth cameras — and verify their data on real hardware.* Run the stack in Gazebo, then reproduce the same runs on a rover in the yard.* Record and replay rosbags to trace failures, and write up what actually went wrong.* Help tune navigation and control parameters, logging the before and after.* Keep launch files, URDF and setup notes current so a teammate can reproduce a run.## What we look for* Python, plus enough C++ to read and modify an existing node.* Linux at the command line — building a workspace, reading logs, working over SSH on a robot.* Any exposure to ROS or ROS 2, including coursework or a personal project.* A working understanding of coordinate frames and transforms.* Git for day-to-day work.* Gazebo, OpenCV or PyTorch experience is a plus, not a requirement.## Who can apply* B.Tech in ECE, E&TC, CSE, IT, Robotics, Mechatronics or equivalent.* Third-year and final-year students, plus candidates who graduated within the last 12 months.* Able to attend on-site in Jajpur Town for the full six months.* Registered on the AICTE National Internship Portal — preferred, not mandatory.## What you get* A stipend of ₹5,000 per month, paid monthly.* Six months on robots that run outside the lab, with real sensor noise and real failures.* Access to the rover platform, test area and the full sensor suite.* One-to-one mentoring from a senior engineer, with a weekly review.* An internship completion certificate, and the AICTE portal record filed on completion.* First consideration when we next open a junior engineer role.## How we select1. 1Apply through the form — tell us your college, branch, year and internship window.2. 2A short technical call, around 30 minutes.3. 3A small take-home task: a short Python or C++ exercise, or reading an existing ROS node.4. 4Offer, with start date and reporting details confirmed in writing.## Internship detailsRole: Robotics Software (ROS 2) InternQualification: B.Tech — Electronics or Computer ScienceEligible branches: * Electronics & Communication (ECE) * Electronics & Telecommunication (E&TC) * Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) * Information Technology (IT) * Robotics / MechatronicsPositions: 2Duration: 6 monthsStipend: ₹5,000 per monthMode: On-site (in-office)Location: 1st Floor, Plot 217, Purusottampur, Jajpur Town, Odisha 755001, IndiaStart date: Rolling intake — start date is set to fit your academic calendar.Applications close: 31 December 2026 Apply for this internship
