Summer 2027 - Electrical Engineering Internship, FPGA

Please Note: To conform with the United States Government Space Technology Export Regulations, the applicant must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., conditional resident, asylee or refugee (protected individuals as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3)), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State. At CesiumAstro, we are developers and pioneers of out-of-the-box communication systems for satellites, UAVs, launch vehicles, and other space and airborne platforms. We take pride in our dynamic and cross-functional work environment, which allows us to learn, develop, and engage across our organization. If you are looking for hands-on, interactive, and autonomous work, CesiumAstro is the place for you. We are actively seeking passionate, collaborative, energetic, and forward-thinking individuals to join our team. The CesiumAstro hardware team is looking for Summer 2027 interns to develop HDL-level FPGA systems for satellite communication systems.   FPGA development interns will work closely with CesiumAstro engineers on FPGA circuits and systems through all phases of the development process. Areas of focus will include design, verification, testing, and deployment at the HDL level. FPGA HDL designs will include high-speed serial interfaces and data streams, digital processing cores, multiple clock domains, and management interfaces. Testing, validation, and verification will also be central tasks for any FPGA design. Assignments will be determined by a mix of project availability and the interests of the successful candidates.   CesiumAstro interns regularly present their work to peers, mentors, and CesiumAstro executive leadership throughout the course of the summer. As such, excellent written and verbal communication skills are required.   To apply, please include a cover letter describing your interest in FPGAs and either space systems or communication systems, as well as your status as a US citizen or permanent resident.
