Job Description

Come Join Our Team

TASI Measurement takes pride in building quality measurement products and enriching the lives of the people who make them possible. Our interns contribute to meaningful work, learn from experienced engineers, and gain practical experience in a supportive, hands-on environment. This role is designed as a structured learning experience and a potential talent pipeline for future engineering openings.

Seametrics is a designer and manufacturer of a variety of flow metering and submersible sensor products. Since 1990, we have provided innovative solutions to users in irrigation, water & wastewater, environmental, and processing applications. Our focus on innovation, product value and customer accessibility has resulted in over two decades of continuous growth. Seametrics is dedicated to helping conserve the world’s most valuable resource by providing our customers with precision flow meter and environmental sensor products. Being part of TASI Measurement provides the resources of a larger organization with a decentralized operating structure that keeps teams close to customers and their needs. The Engineering team develops and supports electronic measurement products, embedded firmware, test methods, and the documentation required to move products from concept through production and service.

• Hands-on experience supporting embedded product development and engineering improvement work.
• Mentorship, feedback, and regular one-on-one guidance from experienced engineers.
• Exposure to microcontrollers, firmware, electronics test, laboratory tools, and controlled engineering processes.
• Opportunities to collaborate across firmware, electrical, mechanical, manufacturing, quality, and service teams.
• Opportunities to present work, document results, and build a portfolio of practical engineering experience.

The Embedded Engineering Intern will support the Engineering team with supervised work involving embedded firmware, electronics bring-up, test and troubleshooting, data collection, and technical documentation. The intern will work on a defined project with measurable learning objectives and will build practical experience in the tools, methods, and design controls used to develop and support measurement products. By the end of the term, the intern should be able to explain the problem addressed, the engineering work completed, the evidence collected, and the recommended next steps.

• Embedded development project: implement or extend a small firmware feature, diagnostic routine, or test utility under engineer direction, with documented requirements, code review, and demonstrated operation by the midpoint or agreed project date.
• Test and troubleshooting project: create or improve a repeatable bench test, fixture procedure, or diagnostic workflow; collect results from representative hardware; and summarize findings in an engineering report by the end of the internship.
• Engineering documentation project: produce or update controlled documentation such as a test procedure, interface description, troubleshooting guide, or design record, with review comments resolved after final presentation.
• Learning and communication outcome: maintain a weekly record of progress, blockers, and learning; present the completed work and recommendations to the Engineering team during the final two weeks.

• Assist with firmware development, debugging, code review preparation, and controlled software or test changes under supervision.
• Use laboratory equipment and engineering tools to inspect, measure, test, and troubleshoot electronic assemblies and embedded systems.
• Read schematics, datasheets, interface documentation, test requirements, and existing engineering records to understand assigned work.
• Collect, organize, and analyze test data; distinguish observations from conclusions; and communicate results clearly.
• Document procedures, configurations, test evidence, limitations, and recommended follow-up actions in the approved engineering systems.
• Participate in team meetings, design reviews, build or test activities, and weekly intern check-ins.
• Follow applicable safety, quality, confidentiality, cybersecurity, configuration-control, and document-control requirements.
• Ask questions early, surface blockers, and incorporate feedback from the supervisor and technical mentors.

Currently pursuing an associate, bachelor’s, or master’s degree or technical certificate in electrical engineering, computer engineering, embedded systems, computer science, mechatronics, or a closely related discipline from an ABET accredited institution. Candidates who will complete a relevant certificate or degree after the internship may also be considered.

• Foundational programming experience in C, C++, Python, or a comparable language.
• Basic understanding of digital electronics, microcontrollers, serial communications, or embedded-system concepts.
• Ability to read technical documentation and follow a structured test or build procedure.
• Basic data organization and analysis skills using spreadsheets or comparable tools.
• Clear written and verbal communication, organization, attention to detail, and willingness to learn.

• Coursework or project experience with embedded firmware, RTOS concepts, Git, version control, or software debugging.
• Experience with oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, power supplies, soldering, or electronics test fixtures.
• Exposure to UART, SPI, I2C, USB, RS-485, CAN, Modbus, HART, or similar interfaces.
• Experience documenting a technical project and presenting the results to others.

Curious, dependable, coachable, safety-conscious, methodical, and comfortable working through unfamiliar technical problems with guidance.

This role is primarily performed in an office and engineering laboratory environment. Essential duties may involve sitting, standing, walking, reaching, and using hands to operate computers and laboratory equipment. The intern must be able to occasionally lift and move instruments, components, or assemblies weighing up to 50 pounds, with or without reasonable accommodation.

Reasonable accommodations will be provided to qualified applicants and employees with disabilities in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Washington Law Against Discrimination.

TASI Measurement is committed to fostering a sustainable and socially responsible environment. We strive to provide a supportive and inclusive workplace where every individual is valued, respected, and given opportunities to learn and contribute. We recognize that the well-being, safety, and development of our people are central to our success.
