Robotics Test Engineering Internship (Summer 2026)

Locus Robotics is a leader in the rapidly growing eCommerce order fulfillment optimization space. Our solution helps warehouse owners attain 2-3X efficiency improvement over cart-picking operations, by empowering pickers to work collaboratively with our robots. All this is accomplished while integrating with the operator’s Warehouse Management System, utilizing and optimizing existing facility infrastructure. This is an opportunity to join the ranks of a brilliant, high performance team, deploying cutting-edge technology to address real-world logistics challenges for major global brands.

The Robotics Mechanical / Test Engineering Internship will support the engineering team in testing, validating, and improving robotic systems used in warehouse automation.

This 2026 Summer Internship provides hands-on experience working with electromechanical hardware, test processes, and prototype robotic systems. The intern will assist engineers in evaluating product performance, supporting new product development, and helping ensure our robotic systems meet quality and reliability standards.

This experience offers an excellent learning opportunity to work directly with engineers and technicians on real-world robotics systems and testing environments.

This role is on-site based out of Nashua, NH. Local candidates only.
