| Aspect | Game Developer Intern | Game Programmer Intern |
|---|---|---|
| Required Skills | Basic programming, game design understanding, teamwork | Strong coding skills, knowledge of programming languages like C++ or C# |
| Work Environment | Collaborative, creative teams in game studios or tech companies | Technical, coding-focused tasks within development teams |
| Typical Employer | Game studios, entertainment companies, tech firms | Game studios, software development companies |
| Common Search Intent | Entry-level game development roles, internship opportunities | Technical programming roles, internship in game coding |
Game Developer Interns typically focus on assisting with game design, testing, and basic development tasks, while Game Programmer Interns concentrate on coding, debugging, and implementing game features. Both roles are entry points into game development but emphasize different skill sets and responsibilities.
As a game developer intern, your job is to provide temporary support for the development of video games. In this role, you may work on one or more projects, experience various aspects of being a developer, and otherwise further your learning as a student. Internships in game development almost never last for the entirety of a development project. Creating games often takes years, and interns only work for a few months at most. Some larger companies may shuffle you through games at different stages of development to help you learn more about the changes that occur during the development process. This job title refers specifically to developing video games, but it is possible to find an internship helping create board games instead.

Field AI is transforming how robots interact with the real world. Our R&D team, the FieldAI Research Institute (FAIRI), is based in Cambridge, MA, where we build risk-aware, field-ready AI systems that unlock general purpose intelligence for robotics.
FAIRI is looking for a Senior Data Operations Engineer to run the day-to-day of our data operations function: building the tooling the pipeline runs on, staying hands-on enough to dogfood and stress-test that tooling yourself, and managing the interns and contractors who carry out the bulk of day-to-day collection and annotation. You’ll work directly with the Research Operations Partner to scale FAIRI’s in-house data function, and you’ll set the technical and operational bar the rest of the Data Operations Engineering team is built around.
What You’ll DoData Tooling & Infrastructure — 25%Build and maintain hardware sensor suites — sensor harnesses, camera arrays, mounting fixtures, wearable sensor stacks (including soldering and cable assembly).
Write and maintain QA scripts for in-house and vendor data drops.
Build and maintain annotation software and other internal data tooling.
Run motion capture, teleoperation, and human-subjects data collection sessions yourself — the fastest way to dogfood and stress-test tooling and protocols before handing them to the team.
Annotate robotics/AV datasets (object interaction, contact state, multi-agent) against FAIRI’s evaluation framework.
Use hands-on collection and annotation work to surface tooling gaps and drive the tooling roadmap above.
Manage and schedule data collection interns and contractors; own day-to-day throughput and quality.
Onboard and train interns/contractors on equipment, SOPs, and the informed-consent process.
Write and maintain SOPs and other supporting documentation for data collection, annotation, and lab operations.
Own first-level QC and escalation for intern/contractor output; flag protocol or safety issues.
Learn the product stack and operate various robotic platforms to demonstrate FieldAI FFM (Field Foundation Model) capabilities.
Support demo planning and execution, coordinating with the Research Operations Partner
Help produce content showcasing FieldAI’s ability to deploy robots on dull, dirty,
and dangerous jobs.
Troubleshoot hardware and software issues live during demos with important stakeholders.
You don’t need every skill below, but you should bring real, hands-on depth in several of them:
Soldering and cable assembly
Motion capture systems (e.g., Vicon, OptiTrack, markerless/IMU)
Data annotation for robotics or autonomous vehicles
QA for hardware and/or software
3D scanning and 3D printing
Data collection and human subjects research (IRB/consent familiarity a plus)
AR/VR development or production
Python, Java, or equivalent scripting
LIDAR
Robotics (platforms, sensors, or control)
Linux command line
Blender or Unity
Film/TV production
Beyond the toolkit:
Comfortable moving between hardware and software in the same day: genuinely hands-on, not hands-off.
High ownership: you can take an open-ended ask (“troubleshoot why this data had issues ”) and run with it without much hand-holding.
Strong documentation habits: you leave SOPs and processes better than you found them.
Background in film/TV production, game development, data operations, or another field where wearing every hat is normal
Interest in humanoid robotics and how machines learn from human movement
This role sits inside FAIRI’s Research Operations function, supporting the Humanoid Program. It’s built to grow: the Data Operations Engineering track is expected to scale from one person today to a small team over the next 12–18 months, and this hire is a leading candidate for Data Operations Engineering Lead as that team stands up.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
