FieldAI • Irvine, California, United States
Salary: $40 - $50 / hour
Role & seniority: Software Engineer, V&V Intern (hands-on internship)
Stack/tools: Python and/or C/C++; robotics logging (ROS/ROS2, bag files, telemetry); CI/CD (GitHub Actions/GitLab); simulation/test frameworks (SIL/HIL); log capture, analysis, and basic sensor/hardware characterization
Design, implement, and execute scenario-based tests for perception, planning, localization, and control
Maintain traceability between requirements, tests, logs, and results; build scenario-based tests and CI-integrated artifacts
Develop tooling for log capture/analysis, automate failure triage, and produce clear evidence reports
Strong interest in software/robotics testing, verification & validation, QA, or test infrastructure
Coding in Python and/or C/C++ for test harnesses/automation
Familiarity with robotics logging workflows (ROS/ROS2) or willingness to learn quickly
Basic understanding of CI/CD and reproducible development; comfort with sensor data (cameras, LiDAR, IMU)
Clear technical writing for test plans, results, and debugging notes; evidence-driven mindset
Experience with robotics simulators/testing frameworks (Gazebo, Isaac Gym/Sim)
Exposure to autonomy components (perception evaluation, planning, control validation)
Fault injection/robustness testing; dashboards/log visualization; field testing
Coursework/projects in robotics, autonomy, or safety-critical system
Field AI is transforming how robots interact with the real world. We are building risk-aware, reliable, and field-ready AI systems that address the most complex challenges in robotics, unlocking the full potential of embodied intelligence. We go beyond typical data-driven approaches or pure transformer-based architectures, and are charting a new course, with already-globally-deployed solutions delivering real-world results and rapidly improving models through real-field applications.
We are looking for a Software Engineer, V&V Intern to support the quality bar for Field AI’s off-road autonomy, legged, and humanoid robotics stacks.
In this role, you will help design and execute scenario-based tests, improve automation and CI pipelines, and contribute evidence that demonstrates our systems are becoming safer, more reliable, and more deployment-ready over time. You will work closely with autonomy, robotics, and infrastructure engineers to turn logs, simulations, and field data into clear, actionable insights.
This is a hands-on internship where you will contribute directly to real validation efforts — from simulation and log replay to structured field testing — while learning best practices for safety-critical software development in robotics.
If you enjoy breaking systems so customers don’t have to, care about measurable safety, and want your work to translate into real robots operating in the world, this role is for you. \n
\n $40 - $50 an hour
\n Our salary range is generous and we take into consideration an individual's background and experience in determining final salary; base pay offered may vary considerably depending on geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
Why Join Field AI?
We are solving one of the world’s most complex challenges: deploying robots in unstructured, previously unknown environments. Our Field Foundational Models™ set a new standard in perception, planning, localization, and manipulation, ensuring our approach is explainable and safe for deployment.
You will have the opportunity to work with a world-class team that thrives on creativity, resilience, and bold thinking. With a decade-long track record of deploying solutions in the field, winning DARPA challenge segments, and bringing expertise from organizations like DeepMind, NASA JPL, Boston Dynamics, NVIDIA, Amazon, Tesla Autopilot, Cruise Self-Driving, Zoox, Toyota Research Institute, and SpaceX, we are set to achieve our ambitious goals.
Be Part of the Next Robotics Revolution To tackle such ambitious challenges, we need a team as unique as our vision — innovators who go beyond conventional methods and are eager to tackle tough, uncharted questions. We’re seeking individuals who challenge the status quo, dive into uncharted territory, and bring interdisciplinary expertise. Our team requires not only top AI talent but also exceptional software developers, engineers, product designers, field deployment experts, and communicators.
We are headquartered in always-sunny Mission Viejo (Irvine adjacent), Southern California and have US based and global teammates.
Join us, shape the future, and be part of a fun, close-knit team on an exciting journey!
