  • Bonus if you have experience with any of the following: Python, ROS 2, CAD design (Fusion), or 3D printing.

  • Be part of Basel's leading robotics startup, defining the future of automated food preparation.
  • Office located in the city center of Basel.
  • Monthly stipend: CHF 1,800.
  • Strong performers have the opportunity to grow into a full-time role.
