Robot Learning Engineer

The role

Robot Learning Engineers will build learning systems that give robots new skills. You will design and deploy reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and foundation-model approaches for manipulation, navigation, and control from simulation to physical robots.

What you will do

• Design and implement state-of-the-art learning algorithms for robot manipulation, navigation, and control
• Develop novel approaches to enhance robot dexterity and mobility using reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and foundation models
• Scale ML systems for large-scale model training and fine-tuning
• Build diverse, robust manipulation skills
• Collaborate closely with hardware, controls, and systems engineers

Required qualifications

• PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field; OR Master's degree with 1+ years industry experience; OR Bachelor's degree with 3+ years industry e
• 2+ years of hands-on experience developing AI systems for robotics applications
• Deep expertise in modern robot learning techniques (reinforcement learning, imitation learning, behavior cloning, etc.)
• Strong proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX)
• Proven experience conducting real robot experiments and debugging complex robotic systems
• Experience with robot simulators (Isaac Gym, Isaac Sim, MuJoCo, SAPIEN, Drake, or similar)
• Excellent problem-solving abilities
• Strong communication skills
• Genuine passion for robotics and building products that work in the real world

Nice to have

• Publications at top robotics/ML conferences (RSS, CoRL, ICRA, IROS, NeurIPS, ICLR, etc.)
• Experience with vision-language models or foundation models for robotics
• Familiarity with sim-to-real transfer techniques and domain randomization
• Experience with distributed training and MLOps infrastructure
• Background in manipulation, grasping, or mobile manipulation
• Track record of taking research from prototype to production
