Firmware Develover Intern

As a Firmware Developer Intern at Jaycon Systems, you will support the design, implementation, and testing of firmware for embedded devices used in our IoT, custom hardware, and sensor-based products. Working under the guidance of senior engineers, you will collaborate with electrical, hardware, and software teams to help ensure smooth hardware–software integration, reliability, and performance of embedded systems. This internship is designed to help you gain hands‑on experience in real‑world firmware development while contributing to active projects.
