Internship: Research and Prototyping GPU and Networking Technologies for Future Radio Systems in Dre

GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) have become a staple in high-performance computing. Their ability to process large amounts of data in parallel makes them a great solution for various computing problems, including in SDR. Together with you, we would like to explore the solutions offered by GPUs for our SDR product line, and figure out how we use them to accelerate wireless applications, such as 6G research, spectrum analysis, and many others!

In This Role, Your Responsibilities Will Be:

• Get familiar with GPU-based development workflows and understand the architecture of GPUs

• Understand how to move data in and out of GPUs

• Prototyping GPU-accelerated SDR applications to enable higher-speed signal processing applications

• Connect GPUs with our DMA/RDMA based options.

Who You Are: You seek out experts and innovators to learn about the impact emerging technologies might have on your business. You create a plan and outline for various audiences. You dig for root causes of a problem and look for patterns.

For this Role, You Will Need:

• Ongoing academic studies in Computer Science, Information System Technology, Electrical Engineering or comparable field of studies (from 4th semester)

• Courage to independently research a complex topic

• Interest in high performance computing and enthusiasm about the latest technologies

• Interest in programming hardware components such as GPUs

• Familiarity with Linux operating systems

• Basic knowledge in C/C++ and Python

• Good command of spoken and written English and/or German

• Availability for 4 to 6 months starting in October 2025

• This internship must be a mandatory part of your studies

Preferred Qualifications that Set You Apart:

• You have some experience in GPU programming (e.g., with Cuda, Vulkan, GPUDirect...)

• Some background in DSP (e.g., how does an FFT work)

• You have created or contributed to software projects, ideally with some hardware integration (e.g. GPU, Network card (NIC), Raspberry Pi, Arduino…)
