Job Description
Are you passionate about Artificial Intelligence, embedded systems, and solving real-world engineering challenges?
As an AI & Embedded Engineering Intern, you will work with a team of experienced engineers to explore innovative solutions that improve engineering productivity, product quality, and the development of industrial automation products. You will have the opportunity to apply AI technologies, software engineering, and embedded systems knowledge to address real business and engineering challenges faced by global engineering teams.
You will take ownership of a meaningful project from concept to implementation, developing solutions such as AI-powered engineering assistants, intelligent automation tools, test automation platforms, or data-driven engineering insights. Along the way, you will gain hands-on experience in software and embedded systems development, learning how AI can be applied to accelerate product development and improve engineering effectiveness.
In addition to innovation projects, you will gain hands-on experience in embedded software development activities, including designing, developing, testing, debugging, and validating software solutions. You will work with technologies such as Python, C/C++, embedded platforms, automation frameworks, and modern AI tools while learning how industrial automation products are developed in a global engineering organization.
You will collaborate closely with embedded software engineers, system engineers, test engineers, and technical leaders across multiple regions. Through mentorship and participation in real product development activities, you will gain exposure to industry best practices, Agile development methodologies, enterprise-scale engineering tools, and cross-functional collaboration within a multinational environment.
At Rockwell Automation, this internship is more than a learning opportunity. It is a chance for you to contribute innovative ideas, develop practical solutions, and create measurable value while building technical and professional skills that will prepare you for a career in engineering and technology.
