At Ouster, we build sensors and tools for engineers, roboticists, and researchers, so they can make the world safer and more efficient. We've transformed LIDAR from an analog device with thousands of components to an elegant digital device powered by one chip-scale laser array and one CMOS sensor. The result is a full range of high-resolution LIDAR sensors that deliver superior imaging at a dramatically lower price. Our advanced sensor hardware and vision algorithms are used in autonomous cars, drones and many other applications. If you’re motivated by solving big problems, we’re hiring key roles across the company and need your help!

 

As an Electrical Engineering intern, you will be hands-on with schematic capture, layout, bench testing and design verification. This internship will include working closely with multi-disciplinary teams and leaders to develop our state-of-the-art LIDAR sensors in aspects such as power supplies, embedded hardware, laser drivers, CMOS sensors, among many other areas.

 

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Conduct experiments to gather and analyze the performance of both system and subsystem.
  • Record and present designs, analyses, and test outcomes.
  • Create schematics and organize the layout of electrical subsystems.
  • Collaborate with quality/reliability, firmware, and mechanical engineers to develop high-quality sensor designs.
  • Assist in the implementation, testing, and qualification of electrical systems.
  • Aid in the design and integration of spinner and flash LIDAR products.
 

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Pursuing or possessing a degree (MS, BS) in Electrical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Practical involvement in electronics design.
  • Familiarity with Altium PCB schematic capture and layout.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
