About this role
What we offer
Work in an international, agile team building autonomousroboticsystemsContribute to software thatistested on real robotic platforms and in the fieldGain hands-on experiencewith state-of-the-art technologies in robotics, autonomy, and multi-agent systemsWork closelywithexperiencedrobotics and embeddedengineersTake ownership of meaningfultechnicalprojectswhilereceiving guidance from the teamBenefitfrom a steeplearningcurve and a collaborative engineering culture
Your missionJoin our robotics team working on autonomous systems that operate as coordinated, distributed agents in real-world environments.
As a Software Engineering Intern, you will contribute to the development and validation of our multi-UAV system, with a particular focus on software tooling, simulation, and system observability.
Depending on your background and the project, you may also contribute to areas such as SLAM, navigation, perception, planning, or multi-agent coordination. This is a hands-on internship where you will develop and test software, work with real robotic systems, and see how your work performs beyond simulation.
