Earth Observation Intern

About Arjuna Space AI India

Arjuna Space AI India is building an Earth Intelligence platform that combines satellite imagery, geospatial data, artificial intelligence and cloud computing to understand changes happening on Earth.

Our applications span forest intelligence, climate monitoring, disaster detection, agriculture, maritime intelligence and environmental monitoring.

What you will work on

As an Earth Observation & AI Intern, you will work directly with our technical team on real satellite-data projects.

You may work on:

• Processing Sentinel, Landsat and other Earth Observation datasets
• Satellite image analysis and interpretation
• Land-cover and vegetation mapping
• Forest and tree-cover monitoring
• Change detection using satellite imagery
• NDVI, NDWI and other spectral indices
• Thermal and multispectral data analysis
• Preparing datasets for machine-learning models
• Geospatial data processing and visualization
• Building small AI/ML experiments for Earth Observation
• Researching new satellite datasets, sensors and applications
• Contributing to prototypes that can become real customer products

Technologies you may work with

Python • Google Earth Engine • GIS • GeoPandas • Rasterio • GDAL • QGIS • PostGIS • SQL • PyTorch/TensorFlow • Cloud platforms

You do not need to know all of these. We care more about your ability to learn and solve problems.

Who we're looking for

Students or recent graduates from:

• Aerospace Engineering
• Remote Sensing
• Geoinformatics
• Geospatial Science
• Computer Science
• AI/ML
• Environmental Science
• Geography
• Physics
• Related fields

You would be a good fit if you

• Are genuinely curious about satellite data and Earth systems
• Enjoy working with data rather than just reading about it
• Can write basic Python
• Are comfortable learning unfamiliar tools
• Can independently research a technical problem
• Want to see your work become part of a real product

What you will get

• Hands-on experience with real Earth Observation datasets
• Exposure to AI/ML for satellite applications
• Experience building geospatial prototypes
• Mentorship from an early-stage space-tech team
• Opportunity to contribute to customer-facing projects
• A portfolio of practical EO/AI work
• Internship certificate and letter of recommendation based on performance
• Potential opportunity for continued work with Arjuna Space AI India

Important

This is not a passive internship where you simply observe a team.

You will be expected to take ownership of defined technical problems and produce working outputs.

If you want to learn how satellite data becomes actual intelligence, products and decisions, we'd like to hear from you.

Apply with:

CV + LinkedIn/GitHub/portfolio (if available) + a short note explaining one interesting application of satellite data you would like to build.
