Droid Autonomy Intern (Summer 2027)

Job description

Job responsibilities

• Work hands-on with an autonomous robot operating in the real world — to help expand its capabilities for safer and more reliable deliveries.
• Analyze, validate real-world data to understand system performance and identify failure modes and come up with unique solutions.
• Design experiments and models that improve the robot’s ability to make reliable decisions in highly variable, unpredictable environments .
• Translate insights from validation into actionable improvements that directly impacts the speed, accuracy and safety of the robot delivery.
• Collaborate closely with perception, autonomy, and flight testing teams to see how your work connects across the full robotics stack.
• Gain experience with the end-to-end process of deploying autonomy at scale —from data collection and model development through validation and live operations
• Be part of an extremely motivated team that is delivering real-world solutions at scale, not just research prototypes.
• Work with and iterate on a state-of-the-art autonomous system : analyze flight data, extract key features of the droid’s performance, and identify what it takes to improve motion planning in difficult and uncertain…
