Are you passionate about robotics and hardware? Do you want to solve real customer problems through innovative technology? Do you enjoy working on scalable projects in a collaborative team environment? Do you want to see your hardware solutions directly impact millions of customers worldwide?
At Amazon, we hire the best minds in technology to innovate and build on behalf of our customers. Customer obsession is part of our company DNA, which has made us one of the world's most beloved brands.
We're looking for current students to join us as Robotics Hardware Development Intern/Co-op in 2026 with hardware specializations in robotics engineering, mechanical, electrical, hardware test, reliability, failure analysis, manufacturing, operations, and more!
We're looking for curious minds who think big and want to define tomorrow's technology. At Amazon, you'll grow into the high-impact engineer you know you can be, supported by a culture of learning and mentorship. Every day brings exciting new challenges and opportunities for personal growth.
By applying to this role, you will be considered for Robotics Hardware Development Engineer Intern/Co-op (2026) opportunities across various Robotics teams at Amazon, with internship positions available for multiple locations, durations (3-6+ months), and year-round start dates (winter, spring, summer, fall).
Amazon intern and co-op roles follow the same internship structure. "Intern/Internship" wording refers to both interns and co-ops. Amazon internships across all seasons are full-time positions, and interns should expect to work in office, Monday-Friday, up to 40 hours per week typically between 8am-5pm. Specific team norms around working hours will be communicated by your manager. Interns should not have conflicts such as classes or other employment during the Amazon work-day. Applicants should have a minimum of one quarter/semester/trimester remaining in their studies after their internship concludes.
The robotics internship join dates, length, location, and prospective team will be finalized at the time of any applicable job offers. In your application, you will be able to provide your preference of start dates, internship duration, and location. While your preference will be taken into consideration, we cannot guarantee that we can meet your selection based on several factors including but not limited to the internship availability and business needs of this role.

A day in the life
Our internship program provides hands-on learning and building experiences for students who are interested in a career in hardware engineering.

No matter the location of your internship, we give you the tools to own your internship and learn in a real-world setting.
