About this role
About RevelAt Revel, we are revolutionizing the way the world’s most critical hardware is controlled—across aerospace, automotive, energy, and manufacturing sectors. Our next-generation software stack combines an intuitive command/control interface, a specialized programming language tailored for hardware control, and a high-performance runtime environment. We empower engineers to build, test, and deploy critical systems rapidly, reliably, and safely.
The InternshipAs a Forward Deployed Engineering Intern at Revel, you’ll work at the intersection of software and hardware, helping bring Revel’s technology into the real-world systems our customers build.
You’ll work closely with our Forward Deployed Engineering and Software teams to write code, build tools and dashboards, troubleshoot hardware integrations, and help deploy Revel alongside customer engineering teams. You’ll get hands-on exposure to aerospace, automotive, energy, and advanced manufacturing environments and see how software is used to control and operate complex physical systems.
This is a highly technical, hands-on internship. You’ll have the opportunity to take meaningful ownership of projects, work directly with experienced engineers, and see your work used in real-world hardware environments.
What You'll DoWrite production-quality code in C, C++, Python, or Rust
Build custom tools and dashboards to help engineers interact with and monitor hardware
Support the integration of Revel with test stands, sensors, actuators, and existing customer infrastructure
Work alongside customer and internal engineering teams to troubleshoot and solve technical problems
Help develop and test software that interfaces directly with physical hardware
Learn how software, firmware, and hardware systems work together end-to-end
Translate learnings from customer deployments into product feedback for our software and product teams
Collaborate with experienced Forward Deployed and Software Engineers on real customer projects
Occasionally travel to customer sites with the team
What We're Looking ForCurrently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field
