What is an internship robotics engineer?

An Internship Robotics Engineer job involves assisting in the design, testing, and development of robotic systems. Interns work with engineers to build prototypes, troubleshoot mechanical and software issues, and contribute to research and innovation. They may use programming languages like Python or C++, work with robotics frameworks such as ROS, and collaborate on automation projects. The role provides hands-on experience in engineering principles, problem-solving, and teamwork in a real-world setting.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as an internship robotics engineer?

To thrive as an Internship Robotics Engineer, you need a solid background in robotics, mechanical or electrical engineering, and proficiency in relevant programming languages such as Python, C++, or MATLAB, often supported by ongoing or completed coursework in these areas. Familiarity with industry-standard robotics platforms (e.g., ROS), simulation tools, and CAD software is typically expected, while certifications in robotics or programming can be advantageous. Strong problem-solving abilities, teamwork, and effective communication are key soft skills that help you contribute to and learn from multidisciplinary engineering teams. These qualifications and attributes are essential for navigating technical tasks, collaborating efficiently, and adapting quickly to the fast-paced nature of robotics projects.

What do internship robotics engineers do?

As an Internship Robotics Engineer, you may work on a range of hands-on and software-based tasks such as assembling robot prototypes, developing code for robot control, testing sensor integration, or troubleshooting system errors. Interns are often involved in supporting ongoing research or product development under the guidance of senior engineers, giving them exposure to the entire robotics development cycle. Typical responsibilities may include running simulations, analyzing data, assisting in hardware testing, and documenting results. This role provides an excellent opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world challenges while collaborating closely with engineers from mechanical, electrical, and software backgrounds.

Job description

Meet the Team

Join Torc's System Integration & Enablement team, where we build the tools, test infrastructure, automation frameworks, and integration environments that help enable Torc's autonomous driving platform to operate reliably at scale. 
Our team works at the intersection of hardware, embedded software, platform software, systems engineering, validation, and autonomy integration. We partner closely with teams across Compute Platform and the broader autonomy organization to improve the efficiency, repeatability, and quality of platform integration activities.

Through Hardware-in-the-Loop systems, on-truck development, automation frameworks, validation infrastructure, and integration tooling, we help ensure software developed across Torc can be successfully integrated, tested, and deployed on its intended hardware platforms.

We are looking for a Systems Integration Engineer I who is curious about complex systems, enjoys hands-on technical problem-solving, and is excited to help build the foundation that enables autonomous trucks to operate safely and reliably. 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Support integration of hardware, embedded systems, and autonomy software.
  • Develop and maintain testing environments (HIL, validation labs).
  • Conduct system bring-up, integration testing, and troubleshooting.
  • Collaborate across teams to resolve complex system-level issues.
  • Develop automation scripts and tools to improve testing workflows.
  • Analyze logs and system data to identify root causes and improve reliability. 

Basic Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, robotics, or related field.
  • 1-3 years of relevant experience (internships, projects, or work).
  • Understanding of hardware/software system interactions.
  • Experience working in Linux environments.
  • Basic programming or scripting (Python, C++, Bash, etc.).
  • Strong problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills. 

Preferred Qualifications 

  • Experience with HIL or system validation environments.
  • Background in embedded systems, robotics, or automotive platforms.
  • Familiarity with networking or distributed systems.
  • Experience with automation, test scripting, or log analysis.
  • Exposure to ROS or ROS2 ecosystems.
  • Understanding of CI/CD pipelines and automated testing frameworks.Â
