About the Job

Requirements

  • You are preparing a BAC+5 degree in computer science, software engineering, embedded systems, electronics, or real-time instrumentation, with a significant software development component.
  • You are seeking a six-month internship.
  • You have solid foundations in programming and debugging, practiced through academic or personal projects or an initial work experience.
  • You can analyze existing code, understand how it works, and make changes while respecting its architecture and conventions.
  • You understand software-to-equipment exchanges, including communication, data acquisition, and error handling.
  • You can develop a testing approach, analyze results, and use measurements to verify a solution's operation.
  • You have some knowledge of embedded systems, concurrent programming, or acquisition synchronization.
  • Ideally, you have some familiarity with version control tools such as Git and automated testing.

Responsibilities

  • Take ownership of the test oracle, study its architecture and interfaces, and assess its capabilities and limitations against real-time reading needs.
  • Work with the IVVQ teams to identify the instrumentation to use and specify requirements, including data to acquire, reading frequencies, latency, and operating conditions.
  • Propose and justify technical choices for new interfaces, taking into account the test oracle's architecture and instrumentation-access constraints.
  • Develop the selected interfaces and integrate them into the tool, ensuring reliable exchanges, error handling, and preservation of existing functionality.
  • Build and execute validation tests, measure performance, and verify acquisition stability over time and in case of communication interruption.
  • Document the interfaces, present results to the team, and provide recommendations based on test results and observed limitations.

Desired Qualifications

  • Use generative AI tools, including software companions, prompting, and the API marketplace, to assist with activities.
