O2genes Private Limited – Computer Programming Intern

This isn’t your typical lab role — you’ll be working on real deployed systems, seeing the direct impact of your work. You’ll own projects end-to-end, iterate fast, and solve real-world challenges. The role blends software, electronics, controls, and system thinking, perfect for engineers who love cross-disciplinary problem-solving and building practical, high-impact solutions.

This role is suited for a highly driven self-starter with a strong work ethic and genuine willingness to learn. You must be comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment, taking ownership of your work, and handling ambiguity. We value team players who are proactive, resilient, and willing to step outside their job scope when needed. If you prefer rigid structures, fixed responsibilities, or a slower-paced environment, this role may not be a good fit. 

We’re looking for a hands-on Embedded Systems / R&D Engineer Intern who enjoys taking things apart, improving existing systems, and building smarter, more efficient solutions. You’ll work closely with both software and hardware, enhancing real-world industrial equipment rather than starting from scratch.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop, modify, and maintain embedded applications on Raspberry Pi (Pi 4 / Pi 5)

• Work with Python, Git/GitHub, and lightweight internal tools (e.g. Streamlit) to prototype and iterate quickly

• Dive into and improve existing codebases, using AI-assisted tools where helpful

• Reverse engineer and improve electrical systems and control boards used in industrial equipment (e.g. oxygen concentrators, air compressors)

• Redesign, prototype, and upgrade PCB controllers, reusing and optimising existing wiring where possible

• Select and integrate electronic components such as sensors, relays, timers, and controllers

• Modify and debug PLC logic (Siemens SIMATIC STEP 7) to improve reliability and enable smarter operating profiles

• Help build smart control features such as timers, schedules, automation logic, and system integrations

• Test, troubleshoot, commission, and validate upgraded systems across electrical, PLC, and network layers

What We’re Looking For:

• Hands-on experience with Raspberry Pi and embedded systems

• Working knowledge of Python and version control (Git/GitHub)

• Strong fundamentals in electronics (power, signals, sensors, relays)

• Ability to read, understand, and modify schematics and wiring diagrams

• Basic understanding of PLC systems (I/O, ladder logic, timers)

• Curious, practical mindset — comfortable experimenting, debugging, and improving real hardware

Qualifications: 

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechatronics Engineering OR Electrical & Electronics Engineering (EEE)

OR:

• Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE)

• Electrical Engineering

• Robotics / Automation Engineering

• Computer Engineering (only with strong hardware/electronics exposure)

3rd or 4th year undergraduate OR Master’s student in Embedded Systems / Industrial Automation preferred. Not suitable for Pure Computer Science students without hands-on experience in electronics, PLCs, or embedded hardware

Work Arrangement: 

• 6 Months Internship
• Monday-Friday, 9.30am-6pm
• Students looking for part-time internship are welcome. Final Year students preferred for full-time conversion.
