About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Develop learning-based manipulation models for end to end sensor-driven interaction (e.g., reaching, motion generation, and execution in dynamic environments).
Build and maintain manipulation training pipelines: dataset creation from robot logs/teleop, action representations, augmentation, and distributed training.
Design evaluation metrics and regression tests that quantify manipulation reliability, recovery behavior, and safety in real environments.
Develop sim-to-real workflows for manipulation learning, including simulation environments, domain randomization, and failure-mode testing.
Optimize and distill models for edge deployment; benchmark latency, memory use, and stability on target hardware.
Partner with the AI platform team to integrate policies with control and safety systems, and validate end-to-end performance on robots.
Analyze field performance, identify dominant failure modes, and drive iterative improvements through data collection and targeted retraining.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field (PhD a plus).
3+ years of experience applying ML to robotics manipulation, visuomotor control, or sequential to sequence models.
Strong proficiency in PyTorch and experience building reliable training/evaluation pipelines.
Strong software engineering skills in Python; ability to collaborate across ML and robotics teams.
