Remote Embedded Software Intern information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Embedded Software Intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Embedded Software Intern, you generally need a solid understanding of computer science fundamentals, C/C++ programming, and familiarity with microcontroller architectures, often supported by ongoing or completed coursework in electrical engineering or computer engineering. Experience with development tools such as integrated development environments (IDEs), version control systems like Git, and debugging hardware or simulators is typically required. Strong problem-solving skills, self-motivation, and effective communication are crucial soft skills for remote collaboration and learning. These skills and qualities are important because they enable interns to contribute meaningfully to real-world embedded systems projects while adapting to remote teamwork and project demands.

What are some common challenges faced by Remote Embedded Software Interns, and how can they be managed effectively?

Remote Embedded Software Interns often encounter challenges such as limited access to physical hardware for testing, coordinating with geographically dispersed teams, and troubleshooting issues without in-person support. To address these challenges, interns should proactively communicate with their mentors, make use of simulation tools, and participate in regular virtual meetings to stay aligned with project goals. Establishing a strong routine for documenting progress and asking for feedback can also help interns stay engaged and overcome obstacles effectively.

What is a Remote Embedded Software Intern?

A Remote Embedded Software Intern is a student or recent graduate who works remotely to assist in the development and testing of software that runs on embedded systems, such as microcontrollers or IoT devices. Their tasks often include writing code in languages like C or C++, debugging hardware-software interactions, and collaborating with engineering teams through virtual platforms. The position provides hands-on experience in embedded systems while allowing interns to work from anywhere, making it ideal for gaining industry experience without the need to relocate.

Job description

We believe power is a promise - a shared commitment to be there for others when it matters most.

For more than 65 years, we've turned big ideas into solutions that help protect homes, strengthen businesses and build a more resilient, efficient, sustainable energy future.


Ready to Power a Smarter World with us?


The Senior Director Engineering , Home Software Applications is a senior engineering and product strategy leader responsible for defining, building, and scaling the software foundation that powers Generac's connected home energy ecosystem. This role carries dual responsibility: leading dealerfacing software applications while owning the platform teams that support consumerfacing experiences. The scope spans feature teams across PWRcell Battery Storage, PWRmicro Solar Microinverter, Home Standby (HSB) Generator, Load Management, and the Home Energy Management System (HEMS), working in close partnership with the broader platform organization. Feature teams for Smart Thermostat and Security remain embedded within their respective business units, requiring strong collaboration and alignment across the enterprise.


This leader is both a builder and a transformer. Generac's Home Software organization is in the midst of a significant evolution, reshaping how software is designed, developed, and delivered in an increasingly AInative world. The Senior Director will accelerate this transformation by embedding AIassisted development practices across teams, evolving team topologies to maximize scale and leverage, and delivering intelligent, datadriven features across every customer touchpoint. Success in this role requires handson experience deploying large language models in production-specifically Claude Code-paired with the ability to partner closely with Platform Product Management, Software Platform leadership, business unit leaders, engineering, design, hardware, and gotomarket teams to define and execute platform strategy at scale.

This role is on-site, preferably in Oakland, CA or Toronto.

Responsibilities

  • Own and drive the technical and product strategy for the Home Software Applications across its full scope:

  • Ownership of dealer-facing software platforms (portals, commissioning tools, remote diagnostics, field service applications)

  • Platform team ownership for consumer-facing mobile and cloud applications; direct feature team ownership for PWRcell, PWRmicro, HSB Generator, Load Management, and HEMS

  • Accelerate the ongoing AI transformation of the software engineering organization, embed AI-assisted development practices, retool workflows, evolve team topologies, and build a culture of continuous learning; leverage hands-on experience with Claude via Amazon Bedrock to lead credibly and drive product innovation

  • Lead, grow, and develop a high-performing engineering organization of 25-50 engineers across multiple squads and disciplines; establish clear career paths, talent development programs, and a strong engineering culture

  • Partner with the CTO, Home to define multi-year platform architecture and technology strategy; ensure alignment with Generac's broader corporate strategy and Home business objectives

  • Drive platform reliability, scalability, and security across all software components; establish engineering standards, best practices, and quality frameworks appropriate for connected home energy systems

  • Collaborate with Platform Product Management to define and evolve the platform roadmap, ensuring shared infrastructure capabilities enable and accelerate all business unit feature teams

  • Partner closely with Business Unit leaders and Business Unit Engineering leaders to align platform capabilities with product line needs, clarify ownership boundaries, and resolve cross-team dependencies efficiently

  • Collaborate with the UI/UX Design and Research team to ensure customer and dealer-facing experiences are informed by deep user insight and meet Generac's quality standards for usability and accessibility

  • Lead the engineering strategy for intelligent home energy features - including predictive load management, AI-driven energy optimization, demand response, and personalized energy insights

  • Manage platform-level technology partnerships and third-party integrations, including consumer ecosystem platforms, utility APIs, grid operators, and OEM technology providers

  • Establish and track KPIs for platform health, engineering productivity, and product quality; present progress and strategic updates to CTO and executive leadership

  • Drive substantial business growth as a direct result of platform capabilities, enabling new business models, unlocking new market segments, and accelerating time-to-market for new products

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Marketing, Sales, and Service to ensure platform capabilities are well-understood commercially and support the full customer and dealer lifecycle

Basic Qualifications

  • Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical discipline

  • 15+ years of progressive software engineering experience, with at least 5 years in a senior engineering leadership role (Director or above) managing large, multi-disciplinary software teams

  • Demonstrated experience delivering software products across mobile (iOS/Android), and cloud/backend services

  • Hands-on, practitioner-level experience building or deploying AI/LLM-powered applications using Claude Code or equivalent LLM

  • Proven experience leading or actively participating in an AI-driven engineering transformation, including adopting AI-assisted development tooling, restructuring team workflows, and evolving engineering culture
