About the role
- Today, robotics is fragmented, slow, and closed: most builders are forced to reinvent the same stack again and again, and most ideas never make it past the prototype stage.
Responsibilities
- Develop new algorithms and methods for training AI models for enhancing the robot dexterity.
- Work with other teams to develop a diverse set of robust manipulation skills for robots.
- If you want to help shape the next layer of human capability - and believe the future of robotics should be built together, not in isolation - we'd love to build it with you.
Requirements
- Currently enrolled in a PhD degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, etc., or related technical field.
- At least 2 years of experience conducting independent research.
- A track record of research excellence with your work published in top conferences and journals such as Science Robotics, IJRR, RSS, CoRL, ICRA, NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, CVPR, etc.
- Experience setting up ML experiments and analyze their results.
- Passionate about working with robots.
- Research experience in embodied AI, robotics, computer vision, machine learning, human-AI interaction, and computer science.
- Experience with deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch.
- Must obtain work authorization in U.S. at the time of hire and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment.
- Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
- Deep understanding of the SOTA robot learning techniques (reinforcement learning, imitation learning, etc.)
- Experienced with robot simulators such as Isaac Gym/ Isaac Sim/ SAPIEN/ MuJoCo/Drake, etc.
- Experience building systems based on machine learning and/or deep learning methods.
Benefits
- Design and implement state-of-the-art learning-based manipulation/navigation/control algorithms on real robots.
Company info
