During your internship at Wingtra, you will be fully onboarded into the highly cross-functional team developing the flight behavior of Wingtra’s current and future drones. You will get the opportunity to work on real-world applied robotics problems with a focus on guidance, navigation and control, contributing to features that directly influence how our aircraft flies, navigates, handles disturbances and reacts to failures. Your solutions will be used by customers operating in challenging environments worldwide. Beyond the technical work, you will take part in the daily life of the team, including technical discussions, flight-test preparation, reviews, feedback sessions and team events. We want to support your growth in a professional engineering environment that goes beyond the purely technical domain. You will get hands-on experience across the full development cycle: from analyzing flight data and identifying improvement opportunities, to developing algorithms and embedded software, validating them in simulation and finally testing them on real aircraft. Your work will contribute to flight performance, robustness, safety and autonomy in customer-relevant scenarios. The earliest starting date is August/September and duration will be 5 to 6 months or longer - applications for later in the year cannot be given priority. Thank you for understanding.
Join the Wingtra team and become part of this venture-backed robotics scaleup with a global and international team of 125+ dedicated Wingtranauts who want to see their actions have a positive and lasting impact on the world. Founded more than 8 years ago at ETH Zurich, Europe’s leading robotics university, our goal is to build the best aerial robots to digitize the world at the push of a button and set the basis for faster and better decisions. Wingtra provides efficient and reliable data solutions to a variety of industries ranging from mining, construction and agriculture to humanitarian organizations, environmentalists and wildlife monitoring groups. We are reaching for the stars and together we might just get there. Open communication, asking hard questions and valuing diverse viewpoints are but a few things that will help us achieve our goals. Above all we will never stop learning and striving to help each other reach our maximum potential.
