First Robotics Intern information

What are First Robotics Interns?

First Robotics Interns are students or recent graduates who assist in the planning, building, and programming of robots for FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) competitions. They work closely with mentors and teams to learn engineering, coding, and project management skills while contributing to the team's success. This internship provides hands-on experience in STEM fields, fosters teamwork, and encourages creative problem-solving. Interns may also help organize events or outreach programs to promote STEM education within their communities.

What types of projects and responsibilities can a First Robotics Intern expect to be involved with during their internship?

As a First Robotics Intern, you can expect to work on hands-on projects that may include designing, building, and testing robot components, programming control systems, and assisting with troubleshooting during competitions or demonstrations. Interns often collaborate closely with mentors, students, and engineering professionals to brainstorm solutions and contribute to team strategy. The environment is highly team-oriented and fast-paced, providing opportunities to develop both technical and soft skills. Interns may also help organize outreach activities or workshops, gaining experience in communication and project management while supporting the mission of inspiring interest in STEM fields.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a First Robotics Intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as a First Robotics Intern, you need a solid understanding of STEM fundamentals, especially in engineering, programming, and robotics, often supported by coursework or hands-on experience in related fields. Familiarity with tools like CAD software, programming languages (such as Java or Python), and robotics kits (e.g., FIRST Robotics Competition control systems) is typically required. Strong teamwork, problem-solving skills, and effective communication help you collaborate and innovate within diverse teams. These skills and qualities are essential for successfully designing, building, and programming robots while contributing positively to team projects and competitions.

Job description

Team Description:

The Robot Software Team builds software that enables scalable neurosurgery that allows safe implantation of the N1 device, ranging from core control, sensors and perception, autonomy, surgery analytics, and more. This role tightly integrates with the robot hardware team, surgery engineering team, as well as the BCI applications team which rely on us to deliver safe and effective implantation of the N1 device. 

Neuralink strives to be a meritocratic environment: we require honest and transparent communication to ensure the best ideas win out, and we believe the best solutions emerge and the best teams are created when you assemble high-performing individuals and allow them to engage in rigorous and thoughtful inquiry. We want to work with exceptional people, and, to the extent that you excel, we want you to take on more responsibility and help all of us succeed. If this speaks to you, come join us.

Job Description and Responsibilities:

As a Software Engineer Intern on the Robot Software Team, you will be responsible for writing software and making sure your code works on an actual surgical robot, not just simulation. Our robotics integrate actuated devices with microelectromechanical systems as well as novel surgical procedures. These applications place strong emphasis on high-precision, high-repeatability mechanical motion, as well as high reliability and fail-safe design. You will be expected to:

  • Develop safety-critical software for the robot; you are responsible for contributing directly to surgery-ready software as an intern
  • Take ownership of a project that is integral to robot functioning from design to implementation under the guidance of a robot software team member
  • Jump on problems when they arise with a strong bias for action to support robot operation by non-software teams
  • Work across different engineering disciplines; your software may involve interactions with the mechanical, electrical, biological, and neuroscience teams

Required Qualifications: 

  • Evidence of exceptional ability in engineering or computer science
  • Experience in writing performant applications in a system language like C, C++, and Rust
  • Ability to work on mission-critical and safety-critical systems
  • Strong bias for action and first principles thinking

Preferred Qualifications: 

  • Hands-on experience with robotics or high-reliability systems
  • Experience coding in Linux and debugging on Linux systems
  • Experience in computer vision
  • Experience in kinematics and motion planning
  • Experience working on medical robots
  • Experience working in a high-precision environment
