Internship opportunities in GNU software-defined radio application 
development (Stipend AU$600 to AU$1,200 per week)

CSIRO's Autonomous System lab is a premiere research centre in pervasive 
computing and field robotics. AS lab is seeking a couple of talented 
individuals to join us for a 6-month internship. Based in Brisbane, 
Australia, you will join our research team and contribute significantly 
to the technology development in the field of GNU software defined 
radios. You will gain valuable experience through frequent, direct 
interaction with CSIRO researchers and engineers.

The primary responsibility of this internship is to develop algorithms 
and protocols for radio time-of-flight ranging and localisation. The 
candidates will use cutting edge hardware to implement standardised 
wireless protocols on the GNU platform and extend these protocols to 
enable localisation. Ideal candidates should be able to demonstrate 
their experience with code examples on GNU radios and be self-motivated, 
creative, and be comfortable working in a fast-paced work environment.

Required Skills and Experience
- skilled coder in C and Python
- experience with FPGA programming and GNU software defined radio 
platforms
- familiarity with building embedded software (e.g., tinyos, contiki, 
etc.) and  wireless networking protocols (WiFi, 802.15.4).

To apply
Email your resume and any other information to Wen Hu 
(wen.hu@csiro.au<mailto:wen.hu@csiro.au>). Pointers to previous work are 
highly recommended. International candidates are encouraged and wewill 
provide assistance with obtaining work visa. The positions will remain 
open until filled.
