RIVR, part of Amazon is a robotics company pioneering Physical AI through real-world doorstep delivery.
Founded in 2024 as an ETH Zurich spin-off, RIVR, part of Amazon developed wheeled-legged robots designed to operate in complex, unstructured environments such as stairs, gates, doors, and uneven urban terrain.
We believe that achieving general physical intelligence requires solving real customer problems in the real world, where robots can learn from rich operational data at scale.
By combining custom robot hardware, onboard autonomy, and cloud-based coordination, RIVR, part of Amazon is building the next generation of safe, reliable autonomous robots for last-mile delivery.

As a Robotics Wireless & Network Engineer Intern, you'll sit between the hardware and software teams as a hands-on engineer across that entire path, configuring and segmenting networks, characterizing wireless links, building the monitoring that keeps the fleet visible, and getting to the bottom of connectivity issuesWhat you’ll be doing Network engineering: Configure and improve the robot's internal network (VLAN, NTP/PTP time sync, DHCP/DNS).
Real-time traffic: Make sure ROS2/DDS, WebRTC and MQTT flows behave correctly on the network.
Wireless and RF performance: Characterize how the cellular, Wi-Fi and satellite links behave in the real world (coverage, th.
