JOIN KURIOSITY
We are a self-sustainable team looking for students interested in robotics. At Kuriosity, you'll gain skills in software, design, manufacture, outreach, and business that you will never forget. We are especially looking for incoming 8th-10th graders to join our team.
No experience is required to apply. If you're kurious and willing to commute to Palo Alto, we'd love for you to join our team!

OUR SELECTION PROCESS
We start with a Google Form to learn a little bit about you. We want to get to know you and find out how to contact you.
​
Once the application closes, we'll ask for supplementary projects if you have any you want to show us. We'll also schedule Zoom interviews for the start of summer.
​
In the Zoom interview, we dive deeper into three things. We'll ask about your technical skills, depending on what subteam you are applying to, your personal characteristics, and your life outside robotics and school.
​
After the interviews, our team will have a discussion about what you bring to the table and team fit. The decision of acceptance will then be made. In certain circumstances, we will request a ~2 week "trial period" where you will work with some members of the team without being accepted.
WHAT WE LOOK FOR
Our decisions go beyond technical skill. In fact, technical skill is a minimal part of our consideration because we believe that robotics is a place for learning — nobody knows everything.
Kuriosity is full of passionate and hard-working members. A great way to show your passion and hard working ethic is to study up on our selection process and team. Those who prepare stand out compared to those who don’t.
Preparation
At Kuriosity, the team frequently branches off into subteams to take on projects and initiatives. Nobody is ever working separately from the team.
Collaboration and Cooperation
Life-changing opportunities occur frequently, but they must be seized. Members who take initiative over opportunities that pop up around them and have the curiosity to dive deeper into the unknown will grow and fit right in at Kuriosity.
