Intrinsic

The current intake is a single open Vision Foundation Model Research Intern role in Mountain View paid at $57.69 per hour, requiring a Master's or PhD student in computer science with PyTorch or JAX experience; the firm publishes no graduate scheme, no named summer cohort, and no fixed deadlines. With no structured cohort calendar, a candidate is tracking the careers page through the year for new intern postings rather than preparing for a single application window, and the addressable pool at any given moment may be just one or two open roles.

Research and engineering teams run across Mountain View, Munich, Singapore, and Zurich, with the current open intern role building computer-vision foundation models for industrial robotics. An offer therefore comes with the compute and model resources of Google's research infrastructure rather than those of an independent robotics startup; for a candidate, that practical difference – Alphabet-scale benefits and Google AI tooling included – is the consequence to weigh against the equity and autonomy of a pure-play robotics employer.
