About Our Internship Program

The company's internship program offers hands-on experience with cutting-edge technology, mentorship from some of the industry's brightest minds, and the opportunity to make meaningful contributions to real projects. We seek interns who demonstrate strong academic performance, engagement beyond the classroom, intellectual curiosity, and a genuine interest in the company's mission.

As an intern in the Infrastructure Operations team within Fleet Operations, you will support the critical infrastructure that keeps the company’s autonomous robotaxi fleet charged, serviced, and operating seamlessly. You will bridge operations, facilities, and engineering to tackle complex infrastructure readiness challenges across multiple depot sites and multi-generation vehicle platforms.

In this Role, You Will…

Improve Vehicle-to-Storage Ratios: Investigate and prototype a partner "flex-capacity" parking program to optimize parking ratios—surveying partner APIs for overflow-space booking, scoping commercial/retail partners for overnight capacity, and aligning with security and legal on access controls.

Assess Multi-Platform Depot Readiness: Map charging, service-bay, and diagnostic requirements across the company’s vehicle platforms (VH6, VH6+, VH6W, VH7, VT1, VL3) against national site capacity to produce site-by-site gap analyses.

Build Adverse-Weather Return-to-Base (RTB) Plans: Design infrastructure planning for severe weather and contingency recalls, prototyping tools (such as an Overwatch-integrated dashboard) to monitor safe-parking capacity in real time during mass RTB events.

Future-Proof Depot Infrastructure: Evaluate corrosion-resistant cabling standards, evaluate alternate charging connectors (e.g., NACS), scope automated vehicle inspection system integrations, and contribute to the long-term site build roadmap.
