• Interest in robotics, embedded systems, or AI applications

Preferred Skills (Nice to have)

• Experience with QML animations, Signals/Slots, or Qt Creator
• Awareness of networking protocols (UDP/TCP), UART/I2C
• Use of Git, VScode, or terminal editors
• Projects involving robotics simulation, sensor fusion, or dashboard UI
• Understanding of modular code design and state management in UI

What You'll Get

• Mentorship from senior engineers
• Real-world project experience in robotics, computer vision, and GUI development
• Opportunity to contribute to live systems and UI panels used in field
• Friendly and collaborative work environment
• Certificate of internship and potential full-time offer based on performance
