As a Frontend Software Engineer Intern, you will build user interfaces for robotic systems, collaborate with teams, and contribute to 3D visualization components.
About Machina Labs
At Machina Labs, we’re reshaping manufacturing through advanced robotics and machine learning. Our platform uses the largest 6-axis robots on the market to form 2D sheets of metal into complex 3D parts, layer-by-layer.
Traditional sheet metal production was designed for scale, not flexibility. It relies on costly dies and tooling that make lower volume projects prohibitively slow and expensive. We’re changing that. Whether you’re a startup building a few thousand airframes or an automaker prototyping next-generation components, Machina Labs gives you the ability to iterate and manufacture at the speed of software.
With support from the venture arms of Toyota, NVIDIA, and Lockheed Martin, we’re accelerating the future of manufacturing, one where factories are flexible, production is on-demand, and innovation is unconstrained.
About the Role
As a Frontend Software Engineer Intern, you’ll join our agile engineering team to help build intuitive, visually stunning user interfaces that let users interact with our robotic systems and real-time data. Your work will directly impact how engineers, operators, and customers control, monitor, and visualize advanced manufacturing workflows. This is a hands-on opportunity to apply your creativity in solving complex UI challenges and gain exposure to robotics, data visualization, and cutting-edge software development.
What You’ll Do
- Collaborate with engineers and designers to build responsive, performant frontend applications using React and TypeScript.
- Develop and iterate on user-facing tools for visualizing real-time robot and manufacturing data.
- Prototype and implement intuitive UI/UX flows for internal tools and external-facing dashboards.
- Contribute to 3D visualization components for robot status, simulation, and process monitoring (optionally using Three.js or WebGL).
- Work closely with backend engineers to integrate and visualize live production data via APIs.
- Support the design system and help ensure visual and functional consistency across Machina Labs software products.
- Participate in team code reviews, agile ceremonies, and brainstorming sessions to shape product features and technical solutions.
What We’re Looking For
- Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
- Expected to complete or have completed final degree within one year of the internship’s end.
- Experience with React (or similar framework) and TypeScript through coursework, personal projects, or internships.
- Understanding of core UI/UX principles and frontend development best practices.
- Ability to work with design tools such as Figma and a willingness to iterate rapidly based on team feedback.
- Interest in robotics, manufacturing, or building tools for real hardware systems.
- Strong communication skills and eagerness to work in a multidisciplinary, collaborative environment.
Nice to Have
- Experience integrating or building 3D visualization components in web applications (e.g., using Three.js, WebGL, or similar)
- Familiarity with cloud-based deployment workflows (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
- Familiarity with OpenAPI and/or GraphQL
- Familiarity with machine learning and large datasets processing/visualization
- Experience building tools for hardware, robotics, or data visualization

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
