About the role

Our goal is to revolutionize the field of robotics, enabling long-horizon dexterous behaviors to be efficiently taught, learned, and improved over time in diverse, real-world environments with people.
Our team has deep cross-functional expertise across hardware, simulation, perception, controls, and machine learning.
We measure our success in terms of fundamental capabilities development, as well as research impact via open-source software and publications.

Contribute to the design of novel robotic systems through software development, including control, perception, planning, with classical and learned methods
Enable research into learned models by working with hardware engineers, technicians, and researchers to build and integrate new robotics technologies.
Design and integrate creative system solutions
Contribute to the design of novel robotic systems through software development, including control, perception, planning, with classical and learned methods; applying state-of-the-art methods, or creating new ones as needed.
Design and integrate creative system solutions; combining actuation, structure, and sensing, as well as new mechanisms and sensory for human-scale manipulation and dexterity.
We're developing new tools and capabilities to amplify the human experience.
To lead this transformative

B.S. or higher in an engineering related field and 6+ years of relevant industry experience.
Deep multi-functional understanding of all levels of a robotic system including both hardware and software, with experience operating robots.
Experience with a full-stack approach to robotics, including familiarity with electromechanical systems and actuation, as well as practical software design.
Familiarity with physical/embodied AI methods and training machine-learned policies.
Experience with inter- and in-process communication, parallelism, logging, networking and data systems, and common methods.
Familiarity with classical motion planning and robotic control.
Strong software engineering skills
very comfortable with working in mixed Python and C++ codebase.
The ability to design and deploy integrated systems that complement and bring to bear advanced software and learning algorithms.
Bonus Qualifications
Background or familiarity with some of the following: motion control and actuation, whole-body control, robot teleoperation methods, common communication protocols, research robotic arms/systems, visual perception and depth sensors, machine learning, robotic simulation, force and tactile sensing systems, haptic interfaces.

A track record of relevant publications in top international conferences (RSS, NeurIPS, ICML, CoRL, ICRA, IROS, …)
It is unlawful in Massachusetts to require or administer a lie detector test as a condition of employment or continued employment.
An employer who violates this law shall be subject to criminal penalties and civil liability.
Pursuant to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, we will consider qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records for employment.

The pay range for this position at commencement of employment is expected to be between $162,000 and $232,875/year for Massachusetts-based roles.
TRI offers a generous benefits package including medical, dental, and vision insurance, 401(k) eligibility, paid time off benefits (including vacation, sick time, and parental leave), and an annual cash bonus structure.

The Vision We envision a future with robots that help people in our real environments with interactions that allow robots to understand, adapt, and grow with us.
Additional details regarding these benefit plans will be provided if an employee receives an offer of employment.
TRI is fueled by a diverse and inclusive community of people with unique backgrounds, education and life experiences.

Come join us and let's make general-purpose robots a reality.
