Are you passionate about advancing the capabilities of autonomous robots through cutting-edge AI and machine learning? Do you enjoy working on innovative solutions that bring state-of-the-art research into real-world applications? Our growing robotics startup is looking for a SWE Intern, AI, Navigation, and Controls, to join our team. Your contributions will help define how robots operate in dynamic, real-world environments, bringing meaningful impact to customers and industries. In this role, you will develop and maintain software for our on-robot autonomy stack, applying the latest advancements in AI research, including navigation, controls, multimodal models, and large language models (LLMs). You’ll work on tasks such as training machine learning models for navigation, optimizing them for on-robot deployment, and using machine learning and AI to improve fleet-level performance. Collaborative Robotics is a team of innovators and builders redefining the future of human-robot interaction. We are working to realize a world where robots are a trusted extension of your surroundings. They work, adapt, and react around you. Not the other way around. This role is located at our Santa Clara, CA headquarters. This is a full time, 3-month (12-week) internship running June–August 2026. The application deadline for this role is January 11th, 2026.
