Hardware Engineering Intern (Co-Op SpringIntern Summer 2027)

The best infrastructure is invisible. You only notice it when it fails. For decades the people responsible for our roads bridges and sidewalks have been asked to manage the physical world with tools that cant see it.

CYVL is the Physical AI company changing that. We help governments build infrastructure faster with hardware software and AI turning street-level capture into living intelligence that 500 cities and towns across the country use to see whats out there direct the work and fix problems before they fail.

We believe in a future where infrastructure keeps up with society. Every street sidewalk bridge everywhere. The proof isnt a dashboard. Its a smoother commute a safer walk to school public dollars going where they matter most.
