You will gain practical experience with a wide range of digital systems and test equipment, including spectrum analyzers, signal generators, GNSS constellation simulators, oscilloscopes, power meters, and programmable power supplies while developing automation solutions in Python and contributing to design verification, prototype testing, and product development.

Location: Hexagon is a global company with locations around the world. This position is based onsite in Calgary, AB. 

As a Digital Hardware Engineering Intern, your contributions will include:

• Automating test setups using Python to control power supplies, thermal chambers, oscilloscopes, and signal generators.
• Designing, executing, and documenting product performance tests and test procedures.
• Performing signal analysis using oscilloscopes and logic analyzers.
• Configuring and operating equipment for GNSS and anti-jam system testing.
• Collecting and analyzing test data to evaluate system performance and identify issues.
• Troubleshooting test failures and performing root-cause analysis.
• Supporting design verification activities and participating in reviews of digital hardware and subsystems.
• Hand-building and debugging test prototypes and performing component-level qualification testing.
• Developing test plans and scripts to accelerate hardware testing.
• Compiling high-quality written reports using standard templates.
• Contributing to process improvements in digital hardware test automation and laboratory workflows.

Must-Have:

• Registered in an Engineering Internship/Co-op Program (Electrical, Electronic, or Computer Engineering) and completed at least the second or third year of studies by the start of the work term.
• Strong academic credentials.
• Proficiency in Python programming.
• Strong oral and written communication skills. 
• Available for a 12-month, full-time (37.5 hours/week) internship in Calgary, Alberta.
