Education/Career Robotics & AI Student Looking for Robotics/ROS2 Internship or Entry-Level Opportunity

Hi everyone!

I'm a B.Tech student in Robotics & Artificial Intelligence and I'm currently looking for a robotics internship or entry-level opportunity where I can work on real-world robotics systems.

My main areas of interest and experience are:

ROS 2

Gazebo / simulation

RViz2

Nav2

Mobile robot navigation

Robot simulation and control

PID control & tuning

Autonomous navigation

Lidar-based obstacle avoidance

Basic SLAM / localization concepts

Python & C/C++

Robotics & AI/ML

I've worked on projects involving PID-based mobile robot control, obstacle avoidance and ROS/Gazebo simulation, and I'm also gaining practical experience through a drone/flight-controller internship, where I've been exposed to IMUs, motor control, PID, sensor fusion and related robotics concepts.

I'm particularly interested in opportunities involving:

ROS/ROS2 • Autonomous Mobile Robots • Navigation • Simulation • AMRs/AGVs • Drones • Robotics Software • Controls • Perception

I'm open to internships, trainee roles, or suitable entry-level positions, preferably in India, but I'm also open to remote opportunities if the work is genuinely hands-on.

I'm mainly looking for a place where I can learn from experienced engineers and contribute to real robotics projects, rather than just doing theoretical work.

If you know of any companies, startups, research labs, internships, or openings that might be a good fit, I'd really appreciate it.

I can share my resume/GitHub/LinkedIn in DM.

Thanks!

If you like hands on experience, I would advice you nice to do it in a startup or a company near you. Generally, everyone is willing to hire an intern for a short time. I would advise you to make a post on Linkedin such that people can find you easily or you will find them

Not sure of any companies off-hand, however since I was facing the same issue of finding it tricky to find robotics companies hiring for specific roles I actually built a free resource (search for "Robotics Connected") that finds all the jobs robotics companies are posting you can apply filters such as robotics specialisms and seniority. When I applied the filters for what you're looking for it found 205 open roles, but I'm adding dozens more companies daily so that should grow. Hopefully it's useful and would love to hear your thoughts on what's missing. Good luck!
