Projects:

Geotab Ace Advance GenAI for Fleet Intelligence

  • The primary objective of this internship is to develop a Reasoning & Automation solution that evolves Geotab Ace into a fully integrated context-aware assistant. Key goals include:
    • Multi-Modal Ingestion: Implement a multi-modal ingestion layer (leveraging technologies like Googles LiveAPI) capable of processing screen content audio and text simultaneously to establish real-time user context.
    • Contextual Enrichment: Develop mechanisms to automatically enrich user prompts with environmental state (e.g. current page URL visible data charts) eliminating the need for users to manually explain their context.
    • Proactive Assistance & Navigation: Extend the reasoning capabilities of the agent to not only answer data queries but also guide users through complex workflows (Where do I go to...) and offer proactive support.
    • Optimization of RAG & SQL Generation: Continue to refine the underlying RAG architecture and text-to-SQL generation for Google BigQuery to ensure the answers provided are accurate safe and efficient.

Vehicle Collision Severity Prediction

  • Building on foundational work completed in 2025 the 2026 project will focus on model development evaluation and possibly implementation. The primary objective is to develop a baseline collision severity prediction model that moves beyond our current major/minor classification based on g-force magnitude. Success means creating a model that predicts business-relevant outcomes such as damage severity categories estimated dollar amounts for repairs or liability classifications. The intern will leverage cleaned datasets from 2025 (including claims data public crash data and other available sources) to engineer features and build initial models. Key deliverables include:
    • A baseline severity prediction model with documented performance metrics
    • Comparison of different modeling approaches and feature sets
    • Analysis of which data sources and features are most predictive of useful severity metrics
    • Recommendations for model refinement and production deployment.

Automated Scalable Load Weight Detection in Heavy Duty Vehicles

  • The project requirements and objectives are such that the end result is usable for the future work described. We should be able to detect when a vehicle on supported platforms is unloaded with a high degree of certainty. Additional bucketing of loaded vehicles into quartiles of maximum weighted load is a secondary goal. Once determining a minimum amount of driving data required to make a determination all trips meeting that criteria should be categorized automatically with the development of a daily pipeline.

How youll make an impact:

  • Interact with Geotabs Big Data infrastructure on Google BigQuery using Python and SQL.
  • Process cleanse and verify the integrity of data used for analysis.
  • Select features and build and optimize classifiers using machine learning techniques.
  • Use machine learning packages like scikit-learn and TensorFlow to develop ML models features for ML models and visualize features.
  • Interface with product managers data engineers and software developers to gather requirements.
  • Own the design development and maintenance of ongoing metrics reports analysis dashboards etc. and deliver complete analytics/reporting solutions to drive key business decisions.
  • Use data mining model building and other analytical techniques to develop and maintain customer segmentation and predictive models.
  • Make recommendations for new metrics techniques and strategies to improve the Geotab product suite.
  • Support a platform providing ad-hoc and automated access to large datasets.

What youll bring to the role:

  • Graduate or Postgraduate Degree in Computer Science Software/Electronics/Electrical Engineering or any related field.
  • We welcome applicants from a range of experience levels with an excellent understanding of Python and SQL.
  • Experience with parallelization tools like Apache Beam and Spark and scheduling tools like Airflow is nice to have.
  • Advanced pattern recognition and predictive modeling or Graph Data Modeling experience is a bonus.
  • Experience with developing machine learning models and in feature engineering is a plus.
  • Experience working with Google Compute Engine and Google BigQuery is nice to have.
