About the role
A hands-on 6-month, full-time internship to bridge the gap between hardware and software. You'll work on classical industrial engineering challenges, playing around with and evaluating various sensors from different suppliers, conducting feasibility checks, and building prototypes to solve real tracking problems.
What you'll do
- Explore and test hardware in our Berlin office, set up test beds, and evaluate sensors (IoT, industrial, optical, etc.) from various suppliers
- Deeply understand current tracking and counting limitations, brainstorm ideas, and propose creative hardware/sensor-based solutions
- Use Python or/and C to interface with sensors, collect data, and build functional prototypes
- Validate whether a sensor setup actually works in a simulated production environment to complement our existing tech stack
- Collaborate closely with our engineers to work on hardware prototypes and sensor data
What you'll need
- Currently pursuing a degree in a relevant field (Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or similar)
- Previous experience with embedded devices, IoT, or industrial sensors
- Interested in how physical sensor data (like time-of-flight, radar, or infrared) can blend with software approaches to solve complex tracking problems
- Able to look at a physical bottleneck, understand the root cause, and systematically test hardware to fix it
- Strong prototyping and programming skills in Python
- High motivation, love figuring things out on your own, and can push a project forward without needing constant hand-holding
Nice to have
- A computer vision background
What they offer
- Hands-on experience in working in an AI-first software company
- Collaborate with a diverse team working on cutting-edge projects with real-world impact
- Network with professionals and leaders in the field
- Flat hierarchy, open 360° feedback, and flexible working hours
- Urban Sports club and quarterly team retreats
- Strong opportunity to transition into a full-time role
