Internship Python Gis Developer information

What does an Internship Python GIS Developer do?

An Internship Python GIS Developer assists in designing, developing, and maintaining Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications using Python programming. Their tasks often include writing scripts to process spatial data, automating GIS workflows, and supporting the integration of GIS data with other software systems. Interns typically work under the guidance of senior developers and GIS specialists, gaining hands-on experience with tools like ArcGIS, QGIS, and relevant Python libraries such as GeoPandas and Shapely. The role helps students and recent graduates build valuable technical and problem-solving skills in both programming and geospatial analysis.

What types of projects and tasks can an Internship Python GIS Developer expect to work on during their internship?

As an Internship Python GIS Developer, you can expect to be involved in a variety of projects that combine geographic information systems (GIS) with programming skills. Typical tasks may include developing or improving geospatial data processing scripts, assisting with map creation and visualization, and supporting data analysis using Python libraries such as GeoPandas or ArcPy. You will likely collaborate with GIS analysts, data scientists, and other developers in a team environment, gaining hands-on experience with real-world spatial datasets. This role offers valuable exposure to both software development and geospatial technologies, which can be a strong foundation for future career growth in GIS or software engineering.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Internship Python GIS Developer, and why are they important?

To excel as an Internship Python GIS Developer, you need foundational knowledge in Python programming, geospatial concepts, and ideally a background in geography, computer science, or a related field. Familiarity with GIS software (such as QGIS or ArcGIS), spatial databases, and libraries like GeoPandas or GDAL is typically required. Strong problem-solving ability, attention to detail, and effective collaboration skills set candidates apart. These skills enable accurate spatial data analysis, efficient development, and meaningful contributions to geospatial projects.

Job description

MERL is seeking a self-motivated and highly qualified Ph.D. intern to contribute to the development of a safety-oriented active SLAM system for aerial robots. The work will involve the development of perception-aware safe planning algorithms, along with extensive validation in both simulation and on hardware, using drones equipped with onboard cameras.
The intern will work closely with MERL researchers in robotics and autonomy. The internship is expected to lead to a publication in a top-tier robotics, computer vision, or control conference and/or journal. The position has a flexible start date (Summer/Fall 2026) and a duration of 3-6 months.
Required Specific Experience
  • Current enrollment in a Ph.D. program in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related field, with a focus on Robotics, Computer Vision, and/or Control Systems.
  • Hands-on experience with aerial robots, including real-world flight testing.
  • Expertise in one or more of the following areas: active SLAM; 3D computer vision; coverage path planning; multi-agent pathfinding; perception-aware planning.
  • Excellent programming skills in Python and/or C++, with prior experience using ROS2 and high-fidelity simulators such as Isaac Sim and/or MuJoCo.
  • A strong publication record or demonstrated research potential in leading computer vision or robotics venues, such as ICRA, IROS, RSS, RA-L, T-RO, CVPR, ECCV, ICCV, or NeurIPS.

Preferred Experience
  • Strong software engineering skills, demonstrated through a publicly accessible codebase (e.g., GitHub or GitLab). Applicants are required to provide links to representative repositories.
  • Experience with onboard perception, visual-inertial systems, or safety-critical autonomy.
  • Familiarity with trajectory optimization, MPC, or optimization-based control for robots.

The pay range for this internship position will be 6-8K per month.
Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs, Inc. "MERL" provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability or genetics. In addition to federal law requirements, MERL complies with applicable state and local laws governing nondiscrimination in employment in every location in which the company has facilities.

Improper interference with the ability of MERL's employees to perform their job duties may result in discipline up to and including discharge.
Working at MERL requires full authorization to work in the U.S and access to technology, software and other information that is subject to governmental access control restrictions, due to export controls. Employment is conditioned on continued full authorization to work in the U.S and the availability of government authorization for the release of these items, which might include without limitation, obtaining an export license or other documentation. MERL may delay commencement of employment, rescind an offer of employment, terminate employment, and/or modify job responsibilities, compensation, benefits, and/or access to MERL facilities and information systems, as MERL deems appropriate, to ensure practical compliance with applicable employment law and government access control restrictions.
In addition to base pay, interns receive a relocation stipend, covered travel to and from MERL, and a monthly Charlie Card for local commuting. Interns are invited to participate in weekly social gatherings and professional development opportunities, including research talks by both internal and external speakers. Interns who meet the 90-day waiting period are also eligible for health insurance coverage. MERL provides immigration support for qualified candidates as needed.
