Role Overview
Pace Robotics is looking for a Robotics Data & Interface Engineering Intern to bridge the gap between human operators, cloud infrastructure, and embedded robotic software. You will build native control interfaces, architect data platforms for operational tracking, and design API endpoints for system integrations, working directly with ROS 2, Nvidia Jetson Orin, and cloud platforms.
Responsibilities
- Design and develop a native GUI using Qt or PyQt5.
- Interface GUI components with ROS 2 nodes, topics, and services.
- Establish UI/UX design and workflows tailored for industrial field operators.
- Create a centralized data platform to track robot work progress, diagnostics, and telemetry.
- Build and expose robust REST API endpoints for end-user integration.
- Connect live robot telemetry to cloud environments for remote analytics.
- Perform hardware and field testing with physical robots and embedded Linux edge devices.
- Develop operational dashboards and data visualization tools.
Requirements
- Recent graduate (less than 1 year experience) or final year student with a degree in Computer Science.
- Proficiency in C, C++, Python, and JavaScript.
- Hands-on experience with Qt and PyQt5 (or PySide6).
- Working knowledge of ROS 2 concepts.
- Familiarity with React JS, Next JS, and REST API architecture.
- Familiarity with cloud platforms such as Firebase, AWS, or GCP.
- Comfort with Linux / Ubuntu and embedded platforms.
- Knowledge of Git and collaborative workflows.
Skills
- ROS 2
- Python
- Qt
- React.js
- Linux
Nice to Have
- Experience with design tools like Figma, Adobe XD, or Sketch.
- Exposure to rosbag and custom logging scripts.
- Understanding of Docker, systemd, and deployment pipelines.
- Familiarity with data analysis libraries like Pandas, NumPy, or Matplotlib.
What You'll Gain
- End-to-end ownership of features from UI wireframes to physical testing.
- Real-world impact in the high-growth construction robotics market.
- Cross-functional mentorship from top-tier robotics and software engineers.
