About this role

Hardware Systems Intern San Francisco, California, United States We're looking for a versatile Hardware Systems Engineering Intern to join our core hardware team this fall. This individual will support the development and improvement of critical infrastructure that supports our fleet's health and uptime in a demanding 24/7 hardware operation. What happens when you ask a robot to run a dishwasher for 8 hours a day? How hard is it really to make a cup of coffee? You'll work alongside experienced engineers who are building the systems that enable robots to perform diverse tasks in warehouses as well as uncontrolled environments out in the wild. The Team The core hardware team sits at the intersection of mechanical, electrical, and systems engineering. They partner closely with software, controls, and manufacturing engineers to take PI's robots from prototype through production - developing test protocols, diagnosing field failures, and building the infrastructure that keeps the fleet running reliably in warehouses and real-world environments. In This Role You Will - Cross-Disciplinary Problem Solving: Deeply engage with problems at the intersection of mechanical, electrical, and controls for robot hardware - take an ambiguous problem, root-cause it, and design and build a solution that addresses it. - Reliability Analysis: Lead data collection and reliability analysis to identify recurring failure modes, log uptime and cycles, and support root-cause investigations (RCCA/FMEA). - Failure Pareto & System Tracking: Develop a failure pareto identifying the core issues that cause robots to fail and when. Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and software engineers
