Robotics Engineer

The role

Robotics Engineers will integrate technology onto physical hardware and lead customer deployments. You will deploy AI models, design experiments, and work with the GRID platform.

What you will do

• Set up robots for real-world deployments including integrated edge compute and sensor suites.
• Deploy state-of-the-art AI models and techniques on physical hardware.
• Lead field deployment and evaluation efforts.
• Design, execute, and analyze experiments with rigorous, well-defined hypotheses.
• Design data collection routines to acquire high-quality data from field tests.
• Maintain a deep understanding of model architectures and their effects on real-world performance.
• Identify and implement optimization opportunities to improve performance on edge compute devices.
• Work closely with AI and Simulation Engineers to transition new techniques to the field.
• Translate field-tested patterns and learnings into scalable, streamlined capabilities within the GRID platform.

Required qualifications

• Master’s degree (completed or in progress) in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Current and ongoing work authorization in the country of employment.
• 2+ years of experience in the development and implementation of robotics, machine learning, or control algorithms.
• Strong proficiency in robotics hardware/software stacks (e.g., ROS/ROS2) and programming languages (e.g., Python, C++).
• Demonstrated experience implementing and evaluating end-to-end robot learning systems.
• Ability to travel to customer sites as needed.

Nice to have

• Proven track record of building and deploying controllers, data acquisition pipelines, and machine learning or classical robotics algorithms on multiple robotic platforms.
• Experience utilizing constrained edge compute devices (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson) for data acquisition and model inference.
• Experience handling sensitive data and adhering to strict security protocols.

Benefits

• medical
• 401K
• other health benefits

Before you apply

• Role is open to candidates currently based in and authorized to work in the US.
