Internship: Universal Input / Output (UIO) modules in Industrial Automation Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC)

Context:

In the Industrial Automation industry, UIO modules offer configurable analog and digital input/output channels to connect various field devices to a PLC such as temperature sensors, pressure transmitters, or motor control signals. By using a UIO module, automation systems can reduce the number of different hardware components needed, leading to lower inventory costs and a more streamlined system design. In short, UIO modules are part of the cutting-edge automation technologies that will drive the future of smart manufacturing and represent a growing revenue opportunity for TI at our key industrial customers.

Subject:

Your goals during this internship will be to tackle those new opportunities by:

1. Testing newest TI solutions using customers’ requirements and concerns. You will exchange with industry experts and report your findings both internally and to customers.
2. Evaluating the Total Addressable Market (TAM) at customers.

The internship mission revolves around 3 guiding steps, the rest of the project will be defined together with the intern:

• Build your own understanding of customer needs.
• Evaluate new semiconductor technology that TI can propose for UIO modules, and compare it versus what our competition is currently proposing from a technical & price perspective.
• Test and showcase to customers the technical advantages of TI solution in their uses cases.

The team you will join:

In this role you´ll be part of a team of and field application Engineers and account managers based in Issy-Les-Moulineaux who are working with key industrial & automotive customers to generate revenue growth. This is achieved by working closely with our customers, identifying early projects and working closely with the R&D to solve their engineering design challenges at the right cost.

Profile:

• Enrolled in Electrical engineering
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Ability to work independently as a team member
• Strong technical skills
• Strong communication & ability to present
• Experience with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes and debugging skills is preferred
