Job description

You'll work on our Embodied AI systems, getting your hands dirty on real robots. The work spans across the entire Embodied AI stack and includes learning, prototyping, integration, working with hardware and software. You'd own a concrete slice end to end and iterate until it works in front of a real user. We value a 'customer feature request' mindset over perfecting a sub-system in isolation: define what the project needs, and pursue it.

What you bring is eagerness, and expertise or experience in any discipline that might be useful. A few signals we like:

• You've built something that other people actually used.
• Experienced to deliver a robot until a deadline (competitions, hackathons etc)
• You've shown and demoed your own work in front of others.
• Software: Linux, Docker, ROS2, Python, Git, React/TypeScript.
• Compute: Cloud (gcloud, AWS, Azure), Edge (RPi, Jetson), Microcontrollers (Arduino).
• Learning: IL/RL, PyTorch, Isaac ROS/Lab/Newton, W&B, HF's LeRobot.
• Hardware: Robotic arms, smart actuators, cameras, sensors, custom in-house robotic system.

None of these are required, and the list isn't exhaustive. Excellence in one area plus eagerness is exactly what we're after.

You'll be part of the fast-growing Embodied AI team developing solutions to real world problems.

Logistics

• Based in Lausanne.
• Start date and duration open.

A few notes on applying

• Keep your application short and concise. We thank you for not making us read more than half a page.
