Job Description
Internship Subject:
Using technology to optimize the comfort of our daily life: this is what drives innovation for smart buildings.
An automated building requires a vast number of sensors and devices, and powering each element can be challenging. Battery based systems are often used but the maintenance can be difficult when the device is out of reach. We can take the example of an environmental sensor on the roof. Energy harvesting offers a sustainable solution to this challenge.
With a semiconductor market in constant in evolution, new devices can achieve higher efficiency, low power consumption and optimized Maximum Point Tracking algorithms. It is an opportunity for latest TI products to enable efficient energy harvesting solutions.
Your goal during this internship will be address this challenge with the use TI new devices in the signal chain and power conversion area. You will achieve this by prototyping, testing, and comparing newest TI solutions with what currently exists on the market. Exchange with industry experts and report your findings both internally and to customers.
The internship mission revolves around 3 guiding steps: the rest of the project will be defined together with the intern:
You will lead the project definition and the level of difficulty as well as what you want to spend time on, from using premade building blocks to designing them, from focusing mostly on software or hardware with the guiding hand of local application engineers and TI system experts.
Qualifications
The team you will join:
In this role you'll be part of a team of and field application Engineers and account managers based in Issy-Les-Moulineaux who are working with key industrial & automotive customers to generate revenue growth. This is achieved by working closely with our costumer, identifying early projects and working closely with the R&D to solve their engineering design challenges at the right cost.
Profile:
Other information specific to the role (i.e. % travel...)
Support the field sales and field application engineer to visit customers and solve their design challenges
If successful during your internship it may lead to you being hired as a graduate Analog Field Applications Engineer or Technical Sales Representative in 2026.
