We’re looking for an intern to work hands-on with our robots. We deploy these robots autonomously in warehouses so there is a lot on the stack of things to get them working flawless. If you’re interested in autonomous navigation, motion planning, or control systems, please feel free to apply.

What you’ll do:

  • Contribute directly to our production codebase in C++ and Python.
  • Contribute fresh ideas and implementations.
  • Tackle projects that will directly help our team implement a new or improved feature
  • Build and test software for real robots!

Qualifications/Requirements

  • Currently pursuing a degree or recent grad in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Strong grasp of C++ and Python.
  • Linux experience, comfortable working in a command-line environment (you know your way around Ubuntu).
  • You have an interest in how software interacts with physical hardware (sensors, motors, or embedded boards like Raspberry Pi/Jetson).
  • Experience with Git contributions and Git best practices in a team environment

Nice To Haves

  • Experience with ROS2
  • Experience using Docker
  • Past projects in computer vision, autonomous navigation, motion planning, or other robotics-related domains

What makes you an ideal fit

  • Contribute ideas and work with autonomy when on projects
  • Tenacity and desire to tackle problems others may see as ‘too difficult’
  • Creative problem solving
  • Passion for engineering

About the interview

There’ll be 2-3 interviews discussing your skills and past projects. The final interview will consist of administrative and logistics details around hiring.
