Job Responsibilities:
Position Overview
Magna's ADAS technologies are shaping an autonomous future and improving lives. The ADAS Intern/Co-op (onsite) primarily supports ADAS vehicle integration by coordinating prototype vehicle activities (build readiness, installations, scheduling support, and issue tracking) across cross-functional teams. The role also supports deployment and use of ROS-based tools as needed. A strong drive to learn, clear communication, and teamwork are essential.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
- Coordinate ADAS prototype vehicle activities across cross‑functional teams (build readiness, scheduling support, parts/tools readiness, stakeholder communication, and issue tracking/closure).
- Support prototype vehicle-build activities with the Engineering Services team, including RRS PC installation and related vehicle integration tasks.
- Support End-of-Line (EOL) and USS sensor calibration activities as scheduled, and document calibration outcomes and follow-up actions.
- Create utilities/tools to support the team (e.g., build/test checklists, data/log organization, basic geometry/FOV calculations, or converting a manual workflow into a repeatable script).
- Support engineers in vehicle testing activities as a second person (as required), following safety procedures and test plans, and capturing results, issues, and logs.
- Support deployment and use of ROS‑based tools (training will be provided as needed) to assist with sensor feasibility studies and integration workflows.
Qualifications:
- Valid driver's license
- Comfortable working hands-on in a garage/vehicle environment (installations, instrumentation, calibration support) and able to follow all safety procedures and PPE requirements.
Education / Experience
Enrolled in an engineering degree program (Electrical, Automotive, Mechanical, Robotics/Mechatronics, or Computer Science or equivalent)
Special Knowledge / Skills:
Mandatory:
- Basic Python programming skills (scripts for automation, data handling, and repeatable workflows). Experience with C++ is a plus.
- Coursework, projects, or work experience related to ADAS/autonomous systems, sensor integration, or automotive software development.
- Basic familiarity with a Linux/Ubuntu development environment and version control (Git) is preferred; willingness to learn is required.
- Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively in a cross-functional team setting (tracking actions, following up, and clearly documenting status).
- Demonstrates drive to learn and take ownership.
- Familiarity with ADAS/autonomous driving concepts and common sensors (LiDAR, camera, radar, ultrasonic).
- Comfortable learning and using new tools and processes to support vehicle integration and coordination (training and mentoring provided as needed).
- Troubleshooting and debugging skills (software and basic hardware integration issues).
- Good documentation and reporting habits (test logs, build notes, calibration records).
- Problem-solving and critical-thinking mindset
- Must follow safety procedures for vehicle testing, shop/garage environments, and bench testing environments.
- Attention to detail
Preferred:
- Experience with vehicle testing and data collection using tools such as Vector CANoe/CANalyzer, dSPACE, ETAS, or similar toolchains.
- Experience with vehicle instrumentation an
