Member of Technical Staff, Robotics Engineer

What you'll do

• Own deployment of learned policies on robot arms, including inference, action decoding, controller integration, latency, and safety.
• Diagnose policy failures and collaborate with researchers on data collection, experiments, and improvements.
• Design demonstration-data and physical-evaluation protocols, and adapt policies to partner hardware and new embodiments.

What they ask for

• Personally deployed software on real robot hardware and iterated to make it work.
• Fluency in software-to-robot interfaces, including command spaces, control frequencies, observation pipelines, and calibration.
• Comfort working with both software and physical robot systems.

Nice to have

• Experience deploying learned policies, including VLAs or diffusion policies, on real hardware.
• Experience with video/multimodal generative models or world models.
