Summary
The Hardware Intern will design and develop robotic cells, build prototypes, and test rigs for robotic peripherals. The role involves planning experimental trials and contributing to project planning and execution within a collaborative engineering environment.
Job description
Who We Are: We build the intelligence that lets robots sense, reason, and act in the real world—moving beyond the lab and into everyday industrial settings like warehouses and factories. Our technology closes the automation gaps that traditional systems can’t solve. We are on a mission to redefine how physical work gets done, and we’re looking for curious, bold thinkers to help shape the future of robotics with us.
Overview: We’re looking for motivated students and engineers eager to put their university knowledge into practice—bridging the gap between academic theory and hands-on, solution-driven work.
Your Responsibilities:
- Design and develop robotic cells
- Build prototypes and test rigs for robotic peripherals (e.g., innovative vacuum grippers)
- Plan and run experimental trials
- Contribute to project planning and execution
Qualifications:
Must have:
- Excellent CAD skills, demonstrated through portfolio projects you can present
- OR Outstanding academic record—minimum GPA of 1.7 or better on the German scale—in an engineering program at a reputable university
- Strong analytical thinking
- Solid grasp of technical interrelationships
- Familiarity with machine design and control engineering
Our interview plan:
- Application
- Take‑home assignment: You’ll complete a short, role‑relevant task with clear instructions and a deadline.
- Cultural fit interview (40 min): A conversation about how you work, what motivates you, and what you’re looking for. Expect CV highlights, your “why,” and time for your questions.
- Technical fit interview (45 min): A deeper dive into your skills and problem‑solving approach for this role.
- On‑site visit: Meet the team at our office and collaborate on a real challenge similar to the work you’d do here. You’ll get a clear feel for the environment, ways of working, and the role.
What We Offer:
- Flexible working hours
- Option to work from home when needed
- A motivated team and an open corporate culture
Note to applicants: We are currently experiencing a high volume of interest in this role. Due to this, our review process is taking a bit longer than usual. We appreciate your patience.
