We are actively expanding our YMS platform with new automation capabilities including gate intelligence, real-time yard visibility, and driver self-service workflows.\nAs an intern on this team, you'llcontribute to real engineering problems on a live product. You'llbe assigned to one or more focus areas based on team needs and your own strengths - which may shift during the internship as priorities evolve. You should be comfortable with ambiguity and self-directed enough to ramp up on a new area with limited hand-holding.\nWhat You May Work On\nYour work will fall within eitherof the following areas, depending on where the team needs you most:\n1. Gate Automation & Computer Vision (Research & Prototype)\nExplore and prototype computer vision and OCR approaches for automated detection of truck and trailer data at yard gates - trailer numbers, license plates, cab numbers, USDOT numbers, and seal presence\n\nBuild and evaluate training data pipelines using publicly available datasets and real-world gate imagery\n\nBenchmark detection accuracy and document what is achievable in-house vs. what would require significant investment\n\nAssess feasibility of running detection models on edge hardware (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson or equivalent)\n\n. YMS Platform Feature Development\nWork on backend features within the Kaleris YMS platform - contributing to gate workflow logic, shipment management, dock door assignments, or yard inventory tracking\n\nWrite clean, testable code and participatein code reviews\n\nHelp reduce manual data entry pain points through automation and smarter integrations\n\nWhat You Bring\nRequired:\nCurrently pursuing a B.E./B.Techor M.E./M.Techin Computer Science, Electronics, or a related field (final or pre-final year)\n\nSolid programming fundamentals in at least one language - Python, Java, or similar\n\nAny hands-on project or coursework involving computer vision, OCR, or machine learning (academic, personal, or Kaggle - show us the code)\n\nFamiliarity with PyTorchor TensorFlow, and Python data libraries (OpenCV, NumPy)\n\nAbility to pick up new technologiesindependently - you won'thave a dedicated senior in every focus area\n\nClear written communication - you'llneed to document your work and surface blockers clearly\n\nGenuine curiosity about how software solves real operational problems\n\nGood to Have:\nWeb development experience - frontend or backend\n\nRuby on Rails familiarity - our YMS platform has Rails components; any Rails or web backend experience is a strong plus\n\nExposure to REST APIs, event-driven systems, or database design\n\nInterest in logistics, yard/warehouse operations, or supply chain technology\n\nWhat You'll Get\nExposure to a real, production YMS platform used by major logisticsoperators\n\nOwnership of a meaningful deliverable - not a sandbox exercise\n\nFlexibility to contribute across different areas of the product based on where you add the most value\n\nKalerisis an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3231,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Software","Supply Chain & Logistics Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-28T04:17:17Z"}],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":101,"reasons":["conf:22","velocity","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-01T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/kaleris-associate-software-engineer-intern-yms","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/kaleris-associate-software-engineer-intern-yms.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-01T12:43:18Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":4134,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":866,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-02T00:00:00Z"}}}
