Careers
Build physical AI for real factories.
Effecon builds software-first robotics for real industrial environments: perception, simulation, and motion planning turned into automation that ships. Join a small team where your work reaches real customers quickly.
Open positions
Sales / Business Developer Intern
Apply Location: RemoteDuration: 3 to 6 monthsCommitment: 80 to 100% (approx. 32 to 40 hours/week)Eligibility: Currently enrolled in a university programmeReports to: Business Development Lead

- ›Comfortable with Linux and the command line.
- ›Hands-on, curious mindset, happy to work with real, imperfect systems.
- ›Bonus: ROS / ROS 2, Isaac Sim / Gazebo / PyBullet, computer vision, Git and Docker.
