Job Title

Electrical Engineering Internship Portable Gas Sensing Prototyping

Job Description

6-9months assignment, 40h/a week,

allowance 500-700 Euro

Philips has a long history of introducing innovative products across consumer and healthcare domains. Today Philips is a 100% health-technology company where hardware, embedded systems and sensing play a central role in bringing new health capabilities to users.
This internship focuses on designing, prototyping and testing embedded electronics for gas-sensing devices that must be integrated into a hand-held device form factor. You will work at the intersection of sensor interfacing, low-power embedded design, signal conditioning, and data acquisition to enable
reliable measurement of exhaled-breath characteristics (flow, O2, CO2, VOCs) in a constrained, robust, hygienic, handheld enclosure.

Your role:

• Conduct a state-of-the-art review of gas sensing methods and sensing technologies.
• Develop and explore the solution space, perform a trade-off and implement the most promising
• approach.
• Explore and collaborate with mechanical engineering teammates to ensure sensor placement and
• sampling pathway are compatible with prototype form factor and housing.
• Test and benchmark the developed prototype, collect measurement data, and iterate on
• hardware/firmware based on results.
• Produce technical documentation: schematics, bill of materials, firmware description, test protocols,
• and a concise evaluation report including limitations and next steps.
• Broadcast and present results to internal audiences.

.
You're the right fit if:

• Currently enrolled in a Master’s program (WO/MSc.) in Electrical or Biomedical engineering.
• Experience with analog and digital sensor interfacing, electrical prototyping, ADC’s.
• Good knowledge of Arduino/Raspberry Pi.
• Interest in healthcare technology, prototyping and hands-on work.
• Experience with analog/digital circuit design is a plus.
• Knowledge of Python or MATLAB is a plus.
• Language: good written and spoken English.
• Previous internship experiences is not necessary but a plus.
• Good communication skills and enthusiasm to work in an international team.

How we work together
We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week.
