About the job

Develops and deploys visual reasoning, inspection, and robot behavior systems, integrating on-edge vision-language inference into real-world robot workflows.

What you'll do

  • Develop visual reasoning and inspection algorithms and pipelines for real-world deployment.
  • Build reusable inspection and robot behavior primitives.
  • Integrate on-edge vision-language inference and robot reasoning into behavior loops and mission workflows.

What they ask for

  • MS in robotics, computer science, aerospace engineering, electrical engineering, or a related field.
  • Strong C++ and Python, with hands-on ROS 2 experience designing nodes and systems that ship.
  • Working knowledge of behavior trees and computer vision.
  • Experience integrating learned models into a robotics system.

Nice to have

  • Experience with open-vocabulary detection or visual grounding with VLMs on robots.
  • GPU inference optimization on embedded hardware (TensorRT, quantization, ONNX), thermal imaging or anomaly detection, or deployments on legged platforms in industrial environments.

Tools

C++, Python, ROS 2, TensorRT, ONNX
