More about this role
Job Title : Autonomy Software Engineering Intern, World Modeling
Persona AI is building humanoid robots for the most demanding environments in heavy industry — shipyards, steel mills, fabrication facilities, and offshore platforms — performing welding, grinding, maintenance, inspection, and material-handling work that is dangerous, physically demanding, and increasingly difficult to staff.
We are backed by leading strategic and financial investors and engaged with global industrial leaders across Korea, Japan, the United States, and Singapore. Korea is the center of gravity for our early commercial strategy, anchored by relationships with the world’s leading shipbuilders and steelmakers. Our work spans both the robot platform itself and the systems, partners, and playbooks required to deploy it at scale.
We're looking for an Autonomy Software Engineering Intern to help build the world modeling layer of our autonomy stack. You will work hands-on with NVIDIA Cosmos3, curating real-world industrial video data from our customer facilities and fine-tuning models to give our humanoid robots a grounded understanding of the environments they operate in.
