Aufgaben

How will robots collaborate with humans in the future?

We develop intelligent systems that understand language, perceive their environment, interpret situations, and act autonomously in the physical world.

In our team, we combine Foundation Models, Agentic AI, Computer Vision, and Robotics to create intelligent Physical AI systems for the production and logistics environments of tomorrow. As a working student, you will contribute to real-world development projects and apply state-of-the-art AI technologies directly to robotic platforms.

Together with experts from production, logistics, and vehicle development, you will explore, develop, and validate new capabilities for autonomous and assistive robotic systems. This role offers the opportunity to transfer cutting-edge research and advanced AI technologies into practical industrial applications.

Your Responsibilities

· Research and develop intelligent Physical AI applications on modern robotic platforms

· Build multimodal agent systems capable of understanding language, perceiving their surroundings, and autonomously making decisions

· Develop computer vision and perception components for interpreting complex real-world environments

· Integrate Foundation Models, Vision-Language Models, and agent frameworks into robotic applications

· Design, evaluate, and document experiments on real robots and simulation environments

· Develop and validate new approaches for human-robot interaction

· Evaluate emerging research approaches and technologies in AI, Computer Vision, and Robotics

· Collaborate with experts from production, logistics, and vehicle development to create practical industrial solutions
