THE TEAM

Born from X, the moonshot factory, and working alongside teams at Google, we’re building a new type of robot. One that can learn by itself, to help anyone with (almost) anything. With one foot in today, and the other in tomorrow, we seek to turn the helper robots of science fiction novels into reality. Doing this requires taking on the hardest problems in robotics. All so we can work towards a future where helper robots are a part of a better everyday, for everyone.

We know that no company, no moonshot, no wild idea is greater than the efforts of the people behind it. Our team is thoughtful, driven and deliberately diverse, working together in a creative and collaborative environment, where everyone’s perspectives and expertise is valued.

We’re looking for a Motion Planning Intern and a Planning & Controls intern FOR SUMMER 2023.

YOUR IMPACT

MOTION PLANNING

• Application of motion algorithms on a mobile manipulator

• Data-driven development for robotics

• Coding best-practices at scale

• Large-scale data processing pipe-lines

PLANNING & CONTROLS

• Application of systemic modeling and control in robot manipulation

• Analysis and modeling of an electro-mechanical system

• Practical skills on motor control and actuation

RESPONSIBILITIES

MOTION PLANNING

• Develop new motion algorithms on existing robot logs

• Test and debug on real robots

• Write balanced code and deploy to our robot fleet

PLANNING & CONTROLS

• Develop methods and algorithms for system identification

• Design of experiments and validate models using hardware in the loop

• Package methods and develop a toolbox for testing on a fleet of robots

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

• Currently enrolled in an academic program and working toward completing a Master’s degree or PhD degree

• Comfortable with python and C++

• Background in either motion planning and/or machine learning

• Control theory, system characterization/identification, and working knowledge of motor control

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Motion Planning library experience

• ML model training experience

• SQL or large scale data processing

• Estimation Theory

• Statistical Analysis

Born from X, the moonshot factory, and working alongside teams at Google, we’re building a new type of robot. One that can learn by itself, to help anyone with (almost) anything.

Our vision is to build robots that will be as transformative to the physical world, as our computers are in the digital world.

But to get there, we first need to take on the hardest problem in robotics — building robots that can learn how to help us with just about anything.
