As a Reinforcement Learning Intern, you will assist the AI engineering team in developing and implementing reinforcement learning algorithms for robotic systems. Additionally, your responsibilities include extending the software stack to evaluate our algorithms in simulation and on hardware. This role offers hands-on experience in algorithm development, software integration, and testing within a dynamic and collaborative environment. We are committed to finding and nurturing exceptional talent; our internships are a key pathway to recruiting outstanding graduates who can make a significant impact in our team.
Important Notice: For this position, we can unfortunately only accept applications from citizens of Schengen Area countries. This restriction does not apply to ETHZ and EPFL students who are required to complete compulsory internships as part of their studies.
We believe the best work is done when collaborating and therefore require in-person presence in our office locations.
