Mechanical Engineer Intern

Do you want to dive in the fast-growing industry of drones and get a rewarding experience in a dynamic scale-up environment?  At Flyability, we believe that robots should be sent into hazardous places and dangerous environments instead of humans. To support our belief, we created Elios, the world’s first collision-tolerant flying robot that can safely enter, survey, and inspect confined spaces so that people don’t have to. With more than 130 employees, Flyability is the pioneer in the UAS indoor inspection industry. Joining Flyability is not just taking on a new job; it is seizing the opportunity to improve the lives of millions of people and contribute to the future of robotics. To complete our creative and dynamic team in Lausanne, we are seeking a: Mechanical Engineer Intern (100%) Starting date: 1st September
