Job Description:

Join a high-impact engineering team at AEVEX Aerospace working at the intersection of robotics, computer vision, and resilient navigation. As a summer intern, you’ll support real-world projects focused on enabling autonomous systems to navigate confidently in environments where GPS is degraded or denied. This internship offers hands-on experience across the full development cycle—from sensor data collection and algorithm prototyping to hardware integration and live flight testing.

Job Responsibility:

  • Assist in the development and testing of software for sensor data acquisition and multi-sensor fusion (e.g., IMUs, cameras, GNSS, LiDAR)
  • Support integration of novel navigation hardware and software onto AEVEX platforms, including embedded systems and edge devices
  • Participate in test and evaluation campaigns, including live flight tests at AEVEX test facilities
  • Conduct data reduction and analysis during and after flight testing to validate system performance
  • Prototype and validate computer vision or deep learning-based techniques for localization, mapping, and estimation
  • Contribute to simulations and software testing using environments like ROS, Gazebo, or CARLA
  • Collaborate with engineers in autonomy, perception, and embedded systems across defense and aerospace applications
  • Perform other duties as required
  • Regular and reliable attendance on a full time basis [or in accordance with posted schedule]
  • Responsible for exhibiting professional behavior with both internal and external business associates that reflects positively on the company and is consistent with the company's policies and practices
  • Embodies AEVEX’s cultural values and aligns daily actions with department goals and company culture

Requirements:

  • Familiarity with navigation algorithms, Kalman filtering, or SLAM
  • Exposure to embedded platforms (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson) or real-time sensor systems
  • Comfortable working with both software tools and physical hardware
  • Strong analytical and communication skills
  • Pursuing a B.S., M.S., or PhD in Computer Engineering, Robotics, Electrical/Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, or related fields
  • Hands-on experience with C++, Python, and libraries like OpenCV, ROS, or PyTorch
  • Ability to obtain/maintain a Secret DoD clearance, U.S. Citizenship required
What we offer:
  • 401(k)-retirement plan
  • comprehensive Medical, Dental, Vision, Disability and Life insurance group coverage with a portion of the premiums paid by the company
  • professional development funds
  • Employee Assistance Plan (EAP) with counseling, legal help, child and elder care support
