About this role
What we offer
Work in an international, agile team building autonomous robotic systemsContribute to software that is tested on real robotic platforms and in the fieldGain hands-on experience with state-of-the-art technologies in robotics, autonomy, and multi-agent systemsWork closely with experienced robotics and embedded engineersTake ownership of meaningful technical projects while receiving guidance from the teamBenefit from a steep learning curve 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.
Develop data-driven dashboards and tools to monitor, analyze, and visualize system performanceExtend our simulation framework with KPIs, automated scenarios, and evaluation workflowsAnalyze simulation and field-test data to identify issues and opportunities for improvementContribute to the core robotics stack in areas such as estimation, perception, planning, control, or mission executionCollaborate closely with robotics, simulation, embedded, and domain expertsGain practical experience developing and validating software for complex autonomous systems
