About Company

Exantro is building autonomous battery-swap infrastructure that enables drones to operate continuously without pausing for power. The company was founded on the belief that the real bottleneck in scaling drone operations is energy, not the drone itself. Exantro engineers stations, batteries, and software that transform one-off drone flights into reliable, ongoing services. The team focuses on integrating hardware and software to create robust, scalable systems for next-generation autonomous operations. Joining Exantro offers the chance to shape the core technology behind high-impact drone infrastructure from an early stage.

About the Role

We are looking for a Mechanical Design Intern to support our hardware team in the design and development of our autonomous battery-swapping station. The role involves close collaboration with our mechanical and robotics engineers, spanning CAD design, prototyping, and testing.

What you will work on
- CAD design and iteration of mechanical components and assemblies
- Building, assembling, and testing physical prototypes




- Design support for outdoor-rated enclosures, including sealing, gasketing, and IP-rating considerations (IP54/65/67)
- Supporting design for manufacturing (DFM) and vendor coordination
- Hands-on debugging and design iteration based on test feedback

What we are looking for
- Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field
- Hands-on experience designing and building systems as part of a university competition team (e.g. SAE, robotics competitions, BAJA, drone/rover teams) or equivalent personal/academic robotics projects
- Preferably have some experience with outdoor-rated systems, sealing, gasketing etc.
- Working knowledge of CAD tools (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or equivalent)
- Comfortable in a hands-on environment — building, testing, fixing, and iterating on physical hardware
- Genuine interest in startups and robotics
