Engineering Device Integration (EVS / HAL) Internship - Summer 2026
IDEMIA Public Security is a leading provider of secure and trusted biometric-based solutions. The Engineering Device Integration Internship involves integrating scanners, cameras, and peripherals into applications, while working with various programming languages and developing user interfaces. Responsibilities Connect devices using vendor SDKs and system APIs (USB/Serial/HID), then expose clean app interfaces Build small services, libraries, and sample apps in Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, C#, and C++ (you won’t use all at once—expect guided tasks) Create simple UI flows for capture/preview/feedback (web or desktop) and handle edge cases (timeouts, errors, reconnect) Contribute to a Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) so multiple apps can use devices consistently Write integration tests, logs, and diagnostics to reproduce and fix issues across environments Document setup steps, device quirks, and best practices for future teammates Skills Enrolled in CS/Engineering (or similar) Comfortable with at least two of: Java, JS/TS, C#, C++; willingness to learn the others with guidance Basic understanding of how apps talk to devices (SDKs, drivers, permissions) and how to read API docs Familiar with Git, debugging, and writing small, clean functions Curious, hands-on, and persistent when troubleshooting hardware/software issues Desktop or web UI basics (React/Angular/WinForms/WPF/JavaFX) and event-driven programming Experience with one of: JNI, P/Invoke, Node-API/Native Addons, or gRPC/REST service wrappers Build tools (CMake, Gradle/Maven, npm/pnpm, .NET SDK) and packaging basics Knowledge of USB/HID/Serial concepts, threading/async patterns, or state machines Familiarity with logging/diagnostics tools (Device Manager, usbmon/USBView, Process Monitor), Postman, or protocol analyzers Exposure to barcode readers, signature pads, cameras, or biometric peripherals is a plus Company Overview As our world becomes increasingly digitally connected, personal identity and security only become more important. It was founded in 1984, and is headquartered in Courbevoie, FR, with a workforce of 1001-5000 employees. Its website is
