Internship - Mechanical / Mechatronics / Automation Engineering

MESH - Robotic Construction; Birr; Vor Ort; CHF 11.000 - 17.000; Teilzeit

Benefits dieser Stelle

Hands-on robotics experience

Access to in-house workshops and robot

Zusammenfassung

MESH is seeking motivated engineering interns to join our team in Switzerland. You will work directly in our workshop and testing facilities on real features that translate into our products, not simulations.

Your work can lean more mechanical, automation/controls, or robotics, depending on your background and interests, with hands-on experience from concept to deployment on real machines in demanding production environments.

Qualifikationen

• Currently pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Automation, Robotics, or a related field.
• Strong hands-on instinct — comfortable in a workshop, prototyping, and iterating quickly.
• Solid fundamentals in mechanical design (CAD), and/or controls, and/or robotics.
• Practical, pragmatic problem-solving mindset — you like building things that actually work outside the lab.
• Ability to work independently while collaborating closely with a small, fast-moving team.
• Fluent in English; German is a plus.
• Available to work on-site in Switzerland.

Aufgaben

• Designing and iterating on mechanical components and subsystems for robotic machines.
• Building and testing electro-mechanical assemblies and fixtures.
• Developing and tuning automation/control logic (PLC, motion control, sensors, actuators).
• Supporting robotics integration — kinematics, end-effectors, perception, or motion planning.
• Debugging and improving system robustness based on real-world testing and field data.
• Contributing to test rigs, prototypes, and documentation for our production systems.

Jobbeschreibung

MESH is automating rebar fabrication and construction processes using robotics and software. Our mission is to bring modern robotics and industrial-grade automation to one of the most fragmented and under-invested industries, enabling faster, safer, and more precise construction through systems that integrate seamlessly into existing workflows.

We design and deploy robotic solutions that operate in harsh, real-world production environments — not labs or demos. Our work spans mechanical systems, robotics, software, and industrial automation, with a strong focus on robustness, simplicity, and deployability.

MESH is based in Switzerland, with in-house workshops and robot testing facilities. We work closely with partners across the construction and machinery ecosystem and regularly test our systems in production and on-site environments. We value close collaboration and hands-on engineering and primarily work on-site with our hardware.

About the Role

We are looking for highly motivated interns to join our engineering team. You'll be exposed to real-world engineering challenges from day one, working directly on features and developments that translate into our products — not side projects or simulations. Depending on your background and interests, your work can lean more mechanical, more automation/controls, or more robotics.

You'll work closely with our engineers in our workshop and testing facilities, seeing your designs and code go from concept to deployment on real machines operating in demanding production environments.
