THE BEST INTERNSHIP IN THEORY - AND IN PRACTICE.
SHARE YOUR PASSION.
World-leading technologies don’t make it into a BMW until they’ve undergone one of the most challenging journeys imaginable. It takes dynamic teams with outstanding technical skills to take them from the drawing board to the road. That’s why our experts will treat you as part of the team from day one, encourage you to bring your own ideas to the table – and give you the opportunity to really show what you can do.
Our team at the BMW Group explores the intersection of computer vision, sensor fusion, and generative simulation. We focus on multi-modal 3D scene reconstruction and novel view synthesis to build high-fidelity digital twins of real-world driving environments for state-of-the-art simulation platforms.
What awaits you?
- You support multi-modal 3D scene reconstruction and novel view synthesis by leveraging multi-sensor setups in modern vehicles (e.g., surround cameras, LiDAR, radar, and ultrasonic sensors).
- Furthermore, you help fuse these complementary modalities to build metric-accurate, high-fidelity digital twins of complex real-world driving environments.
- In addition, you support experienced scientists and engineers in tackling real-world autonomous driving data challenges and integrating reconstructed assets into simulation platforms.
- Moreover, you help develop and validate a reconstruction and synthesis pipeline bridging sparse and dense range measurements with photometric data for digital twins.
- Furthermore, you may contribute to a top-tier computer vision or robotics conference publication (e.g., CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, or CoRL).
What should you bring along?
- Studies in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or a related quantitative field, pursuing a Master's or Ph.D. degree.
- Solid theoretical and practical experience with classical and neural 3D reconstruction, novel view synthesis, and representations like Gaussian Splatting, NeRFs, point clouds, and meshes.
- Strong proficiency in Python and PyTorch, including experience with 3D deep learning libraries (e.g., PyTorch3D, Kaolin, Open3D) and GPU-accelerated computing.
- Familiarity with modern agentic development toolchains and orchestration workflows, such as automated experimentation pipelines and LLM-assisted code and research agents.
- Prior experience with multi-modal sensor fusion, such as camera-LiDAR calibration, radar or ultrasonic point-cloud processing, or sensor dropout robustness is a plus.
- Broad overview of automotive simulation, synthetic data generation, and generative world models, plus a track record of open-source contributions to 3D vision projects.
- Good English skills; German language skills are a plus.
Are you passionate about pushing the boundaries of 3D computer vision and sensor fusion for automotive digital twins? Then Apply now!
What do we offer?
- Comprehensive mentoring & onboarding.
- Personal & professional development.
- Flexible working hours.
- Mobile work.
- Attractive & fair compensation.
- Apartments for students (subject to availability & only at the Munich location).

Working student essentials
What this Tech internship in Munich means for you: the pay rules, the social contributions, and what international students should check before applying.
Weekly hours
Internships have no 20-hour cap, but a voluntary internship longer than three months generally has to pay at least the German minimum wage. Mandatory internships in your study programme are exempt.
Working student rulesSocial contributions
Mandatory internships are largely exempt from social contributions. Voluntary internships are treated like regular employment once they run long enough, so contributions usually apply.
Check your insuranceInternational students
Non-EU students can work 140 full or 280 half days per year (raised from 120/240 in March 2024). A working student contract usually fits within this — confirm the exact limits printed on your residence permit.
