  • Come build the world's best robots-and help make life-saving therapies accessible to all.
  • No Set Hours: Set your own schedule in alignment with your manager and team.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in research and development
  • Experience collaborating in large and complex code bases
  • Experience with modern robotics simulation environments designed for ML (e.g., Isaac Sim, MuJoCo, PyBullet).
  • A track record of deploying onto physical robot hardware, especially high-degree-of-freedom manipulators or humanoids.
  • The following is an example list of expertise - because robotics is such a broad umbrella, we do not expect candidates to check every item here
  • if you have an expertise that is not listed here, please also let us know via the cover letter.
  • Experience with planning algorithms (A, RRT, PRM, etc)
  • Experience with controller design (linear/nonlinear/optimal/robust/adaptive control, LQR, DDP, MPC, etc)
  • Experience with optimization techniques (linear/quadratic/semidefinite/nonlinear optimization, etc)
  • Experience with dynamics modeling (linear, nonlinear, Euler-Lagrange, Newton-Euler, Featherstone, etc)

Skills

  • Join the Future of Robotic Biomanufacturing!
  • Today, these therapies are produced through manual, labor-intensive processes.
  • Costs are extremely high-often $500K-$2M per patient-limiting access to only a small fraction of those who need them.
  • As product complexity increases and the cost of failure and scientific labor rises, the industry is shifting toward automation.
  • Robotics and AI are making automated biologics manufacturing feasible, reliable, and economically scalable.
