Internship : Robotics & Physical AI

Job description

Build the next generation of autonomous construction robotics At MESH, we're developing autonomous robotic systems that automate the planning, handling, and assembly of reinforcement for the construction industry. Our multidisciplinary team spans robotics, AI, software, mechanical engineering, and digital fabrication, turning cutting-edge research into industrial products deployed on construction projects worldwide. Tasks Role description As industrial robots become increasingly autonomous, perception, data, and AI are transforming how they understand and interact with the physical world. As a Robotics & Physical AI Intern, you will contribute to the development of intelligent robotic systems capable of perceiving, planning, and acting in complex industrial environments. You will work on one or more of the following projects: 3D perception using industrial depth cameras Multi-sensor calibration and robot perception Point cloud processing, geometry processing, and 3D scene understanding Foundation models and Vision-Language-Action (VLA) systems Robotic grasping and manipulation Motion planning and trajectory optimization Reinforcement learning and imitation learning Robot simulation using Isaac Sim, MuJoCo, or Gazebo Data collection, annotation, and evaluation Deployment and integration of AI models with industrial robotic systems Requirements Required qualifications Currently pursuing a Master's or PhD degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, with a strong interest in robotics, perception, or machine learning. Strong programming skills in Python and/or C++ Familiarity with Linux and Git Good English communication skills Nice to have ROS / ROS 2 PyTorch OpenCV, Open3D, PCL, or similar 3D vision libraries Robot kinematics and dynamics Motion planning (MoveIt, OMPL, or similar) Robot simulation (Isaac Sim, MuJoCo, Gazebo, or similar) CUDA / GPU programming Experience with industrial robots (e.g. ABB) German, Italian, or French We don't expect candidates to have experience with every technology listed above. Curiosity, strong programming fundamentals, and a willingness to learn are more important than prior experience with specific robotics frameworks. Eligibility Applicants must be legally authorized to work in Switzerland or be eligible to obtain the required Swiss work authorization without em…
