Maintain and add new functionality to our FPGA code base, including code to control and test our SDR (software-defined radio) and SDN (software-defined network);

Design custom IP for new features of both Kepler's satellites and ground stations;

Add support for current sensors/communication interfaces (such as SPI, I2C, UART);

Work with high-speed FPGA interfaces (e.g. JESD204b, 10G Ethernet, Aurora).

Requirements

2+ years in an Electrical or Computer Engineering degree program, or equivalent.

Experience with Verilog, SystemVerilog, or VHDL. (You will be working in SystemVerilog).

Currently enrolled in an undergraduate program at a Canadian post-secondary institution and returning to studies after the internship.

Available for a full-time, 4–16 month internship beginning January 2027.

We have a strong preference for candidates who can work from our Toronto office at least 2–3 days per week to support collaboration and team engagement.



We recognize that exceptional candidates may require a different arrangement and are open to discussing flexibility where appropriate.
