Applied Researcher - Deployment Intelligence
Redwood City, CA · On-site · Full-time · Posted Jul 21, 2026
- Education
- Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in CS, Robotics, Statistics, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
About the job
Improve deployed robot models by analyzing fleet data, monitoring for failures and drift, and turning deployment findings into continuous model updates.
What you'll do
- Build pipelines that use deployment data for fine-tuning and online policy improvement.
- Analyze fleet sensor and video data to identify failure modes, drift, and regressions; build real-time fleet monitoring.
- Apply reinforcement learning and develop evaluation and data-selection methods to improve performance across customer sites.
What they ask for
- Hands-on experience in at least two of reinforcement learning, sensor-data modeling/anomaly detection, vision-language models, or continual/online learning.
- Experience building monitoring, evaluation, or data pipelines for a live ML system.
- Strong Python and PyTorch (or JAX); comfortable with large multimodal datasets and distributed compute (Slurm/GPU clusters).
- Experience designing and interpreting production experiments and applying statistical rigor.
Nice to have
- Experience with robot fleets or other physically deployed autonomous systems.
- Experience with perception or foundation models, anomaly and drift detection, or human-in-the-loop learning.
Tools
Python, PyTorch, JAX, Slurm
AI focus
Use deployment data, reinforcement learning, monitoring, and evaluation to improve robot policies and generalization in real-world settings.
