Company Description

Based in Silicon Valley, California, Maxinsights is a fast-growing team at the forefront of one of the most exciting frontiers in robotics - robot learning. Maxinsights is building a turnkey, end-to-end data solution to accelerate and enhance the development of general-purpose robotics. Our platform improves both the efficiency and quality of data generation and curation, addressing one of the most critical bottlenecks in robotics today.

Maxinsights was co-founded by a team of serial entrepreneurs with deep expertise in robotics and autonomous driving. Our founding team combines world-class research capabilities from Stanford with hands-on engineering leadership from unicorn startups that have successfully gone public.

Backed by the praise and support of leading industry visionaries, including Jensen Huang (Founder & CEO of NVIDIA) and Marc Tarpenning (Co-Founder of Tesla), Maxinsights is helping to shape the future of physical AI.

We are seeking a Robotic Engineer Intern to support the development of robot data collection platforms. This role offers hands-on experience in ML infra and AI-based learning models. The ideal candidate will have a strong technical background and a passion for robotics research and development.
