About Aseon Labs

Robotic pitstops for self-driving cars. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

Aseon is looking for a Mechanical Engineering Intern to start now and work directly alongside the founding team on the mechanical design and production implementation of the Aseon Pod. This is a six-month, in-person placement based in our Redwood City office and workshop, built for someone finishing a master's degree or undergraduate engineering programme seeking ownership and hands-on hardware exposure that conventional graduate roles or corporate rotation programmes can’t offer.

What they're looking for

  • Recent Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, or Bachelor’s programme
  • Prior project or internship experience in a robotics or hardware startup context
  • Ability to propose unconventional solutions
  • Technical precision with an ability to make design decisions backed by underlying mechanics
  • Command of 3D CAD (SolidWorks, CATIA, NX or equivalent), including some experience with FEA or basic simulation tools
  • Rigorous fundamentals in mechanisms, tolerancing and electromechanical system design, and familiarity with common fabrication methods such as sheet metal, machining, 3D printing or moulding
More about this role

Aseon Labs builds robotic pitstops for self-driving cars. A depot in a box for charging, cleaning and inspecting autonomous fleets directly in operating zones.

Autonomous driving is working. The operational layer around it is not. Today, fleets lose significant time and money travelling to centralised depots for charging, cleaning and servicing, creating dead miles, lower uptime and operational bottlenecks that limit fleet scale.

Aseon Pods are modular, rapidly deployable robotic stations that keep autonomous fleets operating near demand. By bringing operations directly into demand zones, Aseon helps fleet operators increase uptime, reduce operational overhead and scale markets more efficiently without relying on large centralised depots.

George and Dan are second-time founders and mobility infrastructure operators. Previously, they built and scaled Pushme to 5,000 stations across 40 cities and were acquired by TIER-Dott. Aseon Labs is backed by Y Combinator (YC P26) , has just closed a $10M raise, and is headquartered in Redwood City.
