Comfort using AI-assisted development tools across iOS, Android, and shared C++ code.
Available to work four days per week in the San Francisco office for the full 12-week internship.
Preferred experience includes iOS development with Xcode or Instruments, Android development with Android Studio or Android NDK, spatial computing, augmented reality, computer vision, localization, SLAM, VPS, CMake, Bazel, SDK or library development, open-source contributions, or developer-facing APIs.
