About the role

  • Our approach, grounded in physics, unlocks superhuman capabilities.
  • Our team consists of pioneers in robotics and machine learning.

Responsibilities

  • Design and train perception models that are robust to lighting changes, camera viewpoint shifts, texture variation, clutter, occlusion, object instance variation, and imperfect calibration.

Requirements

  • Ability to move fluidly between research code and production-quality systems.
  • Strong understanding of how data distribution, sensor noise, calibration, lighting, and scene variation affect model performance.

Nice to have

  • Experience training policies from visual observations, including RGB, RGB-D, point clouds, object-centric representations, or learned latent representations.
  • Experience with domain randomization, synthetic data generation, differentiable rendering, neural rendering, or photorealistic simulation.
  • Experience with robotics simulators or synthetic data tools such as Isaac Sim, MuJoCo or similar environments.
  • Experience with real robot deployment, including camera calibration, hand-eye calibration, depth sensors, ROS/ROS2, or robot data collection pipelines.

Benefits

  • Build computer vision and visual representation learning pipelines for robotic manipulation, including RGB, RGB-D, depth, segmentation, pose, keypoint, and object-centric representations.
  • Develop visual models that support reinforcement learning and imitation learning policies, including end-to-end visuomotor policies that map visual observations to robot actions.
  • Improve our data pipeline for vision-based manipulation policies through domain randomization, photorealistic rendering, synthetic data generation, sensor noise modeling, and real-world fine-tuning.
  • Collaborate with robotics, robot learning, and simulation engineers to define the perception strategy for robotic manipulation.
