Robotics Hardware Intern: Build & Validate Next-Gen Robot

NCS Group; Singapore; On-site; SGD 13,000 - 20,000; Part time

Job summary

NCS Group in Singapore is seeking a Robotics Hardware Intern to join our hardware team and contribute to the hands-on build and integration of a next-generation robotics platform. You will work with hardware engineers on sensor placement, mechanical layout, and system assembly across the full hardware lifecycle.

You will gain practical experience from CAD to fabrication, validation, and documentation, and collaborate with software, firmware, and project teams to ensure seamless hardware

Qualifications

• Interest in robotics, mechatronics, or hardware engineering.
• Hands-on hardware work: wiring, mounting, assembly.
• Experience with CAD tools such as SolidWorks or Fusion 360.
• Basic understanding of sensors and their integration (FOV, mounting, calibration).
• Familiarity with Python or Bash scripting is a plus.
• Willingness to learn and adapt on the job; flexibility is encouraged.
• Bonus: 3D printing experience.
• Bonus: PCB design experience.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to sensor placement and mechanical layout decisions on our next-generation robot platform, working directly with engineers on design tradeoffs (field of view, mounting, calibration)
• Support wiring harness assembly, actuator integration, and mechanical assembly of hardware subsystems
• Own at least one hardware subsystem or module end-to-end—from design through fabrication to on-robot fit
• Validate assembled hardware against mechanical and sensor specifications, and troubleshoot issues as they arise
• Document build specifications, test outcomes, and design iterations
• Collaborate with software, firmware, and project teams to ensure hardware integrates smoothly with the rest of the platform; opportunities to gain exposure to adjacent disciplines are welcome
