Low level embedded software optimization - Internship Toulouse

EasyMile is hiring!

About

EasyMile is a global leader in autonomous technology that powers heavy-duty driverless vehicles for airports, logistics, and industrial sites worldwide.

Since 2014, its internationally-certified software has driven autonomously in 400+ locations in more than 30 countries, over 1,000,000km.

This advanced stack enables precise vehicle control, real-time decision-making, and seamless integration with existing infrastructure. A combination of LiDAR, cameras, and radar sensors allow vehicles to accurately perceive their surroundings and navigate complex environments. EasyMile prioritises delivering safety and efficiency to its clients.

Having built its expertise in passenger transport, the company is now focused on autonomous towing which has resulted in the development of two solutions: the EZTow, a driverless tow tractor, and the EZDolly, an autonomous cargo dolly.

With several mass operations around the world EasyMile was the first to deploy fully driverless at Level 4 of autonomous driving and has the highest number of remotely supervised operations (10+) on the market to date. It is also the first autonomous vehicle solutions provider to be ISO 9001:2015 certified.

EasyMile has over 150 employees in 2 locations (Toulouse, Berlin).

We are looking for highly motivated people to build the road ahead and invent solutions to challenges never met before. Beyond excellent technical skills, we are looking for the right attitude: ambition, creativity and perseverance. Highlighting strong values such as innovation, passion, excellence, trust and team spirit, EasyMile’s team keeps pushing boundaries to invent the future of driverless technology.

Job Description

Internship details

  • Duration: 5-6 months

  • Start date: Jan - April 2026

  • Location: Toulouse, France

  • Team: EZShield

  • Internship subject: Find optimization of the embedded C code thanks to hardware mechanism

  • Compensation: 1000€ gross, tickets restaurant, CSE

Internship Context

The Safety ECU team is responsible for developing safe software algorithms to detect misbehaviors of autonomous vehicles. As part of this effort, the team designs its own hardware, operating system and applications.

The increase in performance of different kinds of sensors (LIDARs, RADARs) is pushing the limits of our hardware, and that’s why we are looking at performance optimization. This internship focuses more particularly on optimisations based on hardware mechanisms, such as but not limited to cache usage, memory usage, SIMD instructions, etc…

Missions / Responsabilities

Under the supervision of his tutor, the intern will be involved in:

  • Studying the hardware mechanisms of our processor to understand how we use it and the ones that are not yet used.

  • Analysing the existing software to see if hardware mechanisms could be introduced.

  • Analysing the existing software to find possible algorithm improvements.

  • Implementing Embedded C software optimizations for our safety-critical ECU—ensuring it meets the highest standards of reliability and performance.

  • Analyze the performance gain of implemented optimisations.

Preferred Experience

There is no typical profile at EasyMile, we all come from different backgrounds and that is what makes us strong! Don't hesitate to apply if you are motivated and interested by innovative transportation and technologies.

We are looking for:

  • Student in computer science or embedded software engineering
