About the Role

Join Cosy Farms, a mission-driven startup redefining urban agriculture to produce fresh, sustainable, and delicious food. We are seeking a hands-on Embedded Systems Intern to contribute to our hydroponics farm by developing and deploying firmware that controls various environmental factors critical to plant growth.

Key Responsibilities

Develop firmware for Espressif ESP32 microcontrollers using C/C++, ESP-IDF, and Arduino frameworks to monitor sensors and control actuators managing climate, irrigation, dosing, and lighting in our hydroponics setup.
Design and implement closed-loop control systems using PID controllers and state machines to regulate pH and EC dosing, HVAC, CO2 levels, humidity, and LED photoperiod scheduling.
Enable connectivity features including MQTT-based sensor data streaming to cloud services, remote configuration management, and secure OTA firmware updates.
Work with Linux single-board computers such as Raspberry Pi and NVIDIA Jetson to consolidate data from multiple ESP32 nodes, execute local fallback control routines, and provide APIs via Python.
Perform on-site troubleshooting by inspecting sensor communication buses, diagnosing malfunctioning nodes, and deploying timely fixes directly at the farm.
Take ownership of small subsystem projects encompassing wiring, firmware development, testing, and implementation within the live hydroponic environment.

Candidate Eligibility

Must be currently pursuing or have recently completed B.Tech/BE/M.Tech in electronics, electrical engineering, ECE, mechatronics, instrumentation, or a closely related discipline.
Availability for a full-time, in-office internship at our Mumbai location for one month, starting between July 18, 2026, and August 22, 2026.
Proven experience completing at least one substantial embedded systems project beyond breadboard level, with evidence such as code repositories, schematics, or demonstration videos.
Proficiency in C/C++ programming for microcontrollers and Python scripting on Linux platforms; familiarity with at least two communication/peripheral protocols like I2C, SPI, UART, ADC, PWM, and interrupts.
Ability to interpret datasheets, utilize multimeters, and solder with neat craftsmanship.
Willingness to work full-time on-site at the farm throughout the internship period.
Additional valued experience includes expertise in ESP-IDF/FreeRTOS, OTA updates, MQTT/Home Assistant/ESPHome ecosystems, PID control theory, hydroponics or horticultural lighting, KiCad/EasyEDA, and contributions to open-source firmware projects.
Demonstrates a proactive mindset with a curiosity-driven approach to deconstructing and understanding devices.

Compensation and Benefits

Monthly stipend ranging from INR 15,000 to INR 18,000.
Certificate of completion and letter of recommendation upon internship conclusion.
Flexible working hours to accommodate productivity.

Additional Information

Cosy Farms is dedicated to innovating urban farming solutions that address the pressing food production challenges of the next 40 years. Our vision centers on sustainability, nutrition, and flavor to reshape food systems starting right in the city.
