The Robotics and Auto-Driving Lab (RAL) of Baidu Research is looking for intern candidates with strong robotics or autonomous driving background. We aim to build a multi-disciplinary research team that combines expertise in robotics, machine learning, computer vision, human-robot interaction, NLP, graphics, and simulation to study holistic solutions, as we strongly believe that the most significant advancement comes from the cross pollination of different areas. We aim to become a bridge that closes the gap between academic research and industrial applications. By establishing and maintaining a close relationship with world leading universities and using Baidu’s well-established engineering talent, we strive to be the first to bring research lab results, from either internally or externally, to market.

Internship Role Overview:

• Participate in researching, prototyping, and evaluating novel robotics and autonomous devices
• Write driving algorithms for real world problems
• Participate in software prototyping and experimental evaluation
• Contribute to academic publications
• Expect to produce technical reports, conference/journal papers, and prototyped system

Culture Fit:

• Mission alignment: If you want to be part of a team to accomplish this great mission, we will provide you the best possible platform to do that.
• Self-directed: We work best with people that are driven, motivated, and aspire to greatness.
