INTERN - Engineering (Streem)
Overview
Streem, a Frontdoor company, has a simple mission: provide on-demand expertise for the world around you. We believe that as quickly as you can hail a ride with your phone, you should be able to have a plumber check out your leaky faucet. We are building a platform that allows experts to provide remote, on-demand services to their customers, saving money and time in traffic, and providing a better overall experience for both parties.
By bringing together some of the latest technologies in a convenient and easy to use app, we are revolutionizing communication beyond standard remote video. Leveraging Augmented Reality (AR), an expert can now literally reach out and point at the problem area, instead of trying to explain the issue with just words. Users can also take remote measurements since Streem captures depth information during the call. Using Machine Learning and Image Recognition, Streem can identify products, extract model/serial numbers, recognize problem situations, and more, making the professional even more efficient than if they were onsite.
We’re excited to announce our 2022 Summer Internship Program here at Streem & Frontdoor where students will have real-world responsibilities, in addition to participating in professional development, networking and social events.
