Guys, I'm currently looking for an intern to come play with my company's Linux-powered autonomous robot fleet this summer: Harvest Automation <http://www.harvestai.com> is looking to give one bright individual some industrial experience that includes:
* Working with actual robots, simulations, testers, operations people, and developers to help solve issues in the application, network, and operating environments. * Creating test plans, test cases, and conditions for testing of the robot software (both on actual hardware, running around in the real world, and in simulation) from information in specifications, feature descriptions, or bug-reports. * Creation of test cases that address software scenarios, system testing, regression testing, negative testing, error or defect retest, performance monitoring and usability * Reproducing and resolving software issues with the database, UI, or communication protocol * Implementing a software solution from a requirement description within the code base using the database, UI, or communication protocol * Updating test results and requirement descriptions in our issue-tracker * Assisting in system set-up and software installation * Assisting in the installation/configuration of re-creations of the software production environments We're in Billerica, MA (~14 miles south of Nashua). We're really hoping to find someone who's already got a reasonably good grasp on what software-development entails; my boss has been recruit from the college CS programs around Boston, and is expecting to find someone working on a Master's CS Degree; I suspect that we'd do well to open up the search a bit--that there's probably someone on the list either who knows someone in college or high school (or *whatever*) who's already savvy enough to have read some of the more interesting compsci literature on their own, spent some time hacking on open-source projects, and even has some code/patchsets associated with a github/launchpad/ohloh/openhub/sourceforge/whatever account that they could show along with trails through mailing lists and public bug-trackers..., or who _is_ such a person themselves. I'd like to hear from those people. Experience with C++ and Python are pluses (and if you're savvy enough to grok things metaclasses, that's probably a big plus). If you know C# or Java, that's OK too. You'll need to have some background somewhere in there. Knowing SQL is a plus. If you've ever programmed with a video game engine, that's a plus. Understanding of network architectures and how Wi-Fi actually works is a plus. -- "Don't be afraid to ask (λf.((λx.xx) (λr.f(rr))))." _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
