About The Role

You don’t just want to learn robotics in lectures – you want to see it working on real robots in real greenhouses? In our newly established AgTech team, you will work on mobile robots operating in high-end greenhouses and help us rethink agriculture through intelligent automation. This internship gives you the opportunity to join a strategic initiative at ZEISS that aims to revolutionize labor automation in agriculture using cutting-edge robotic systems.

Your Role

Implement and evaluate state-of-the-art motion planning and control approaches for highly unstructured environments
Develop, refactor and maintain motion generation pipelines building blocks in a large robotics codebase
Test approaches on real hardware in greenhouses

Your Profile

Pursuing a Master’s degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Data Science or related field
Good foundation in robotics, kinematics, dynamics, motion planning, control theory, optimization, or machine learning
Good coding skills with C++ and Python
Hands-on experience with tools like ROS 2, Pinocchio, Drake, MoveIt, Tesseract, ros2_control or LeRobot is a plus
High motivation and openness to learn new skills
Ability to work well in an interdisciplinary, international team
Excellent command of English; German skills are an asset but not required
