About the role
Simbe is building the AI-powered operating system for physical retail. Our autonomous robots and multimodal computer vision platform turn complex, constantly changing stores into accurate, actionable intelligence for leading retailers around the world.

Simbe is looking for a Hardware / Mechanical Engineering Intern to join the team designing, testing, and improving the Tally autonomous robot platform. As an intern, you’ll work alongside our Hardware Engineering team and contribute to a meaningful project tied to the team’s active priorities. Your specific project will be selected by your hiring manager closer to your start date so that your work directly supports what the team is building at that time. Depending on current priorities, your work may involve areas such as mechanical component design or redesign, DFM/DFA improvements, prototyping, bench testing, reliability improvements, manufacturing support, or early concepts for future generations of the Tally platform. This internship is designed for students who want hands-on experience building physical robotic systems and solving real-world mechanical engineering problems.
