Senior AI Engineer - Dexterous Manipulation & RL

RIVR; Zürich; Vor Ort; CHF 120.000 - 160.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

RIVR, part of Amazon, is seeking a Senior AI Engineer to advance dexterous manipulation through reinforcement learning, using real‑world data for robust grasping and dynamic hand‑offs.

You will prototype algorithms in Python, deploy models on hardware, and write production‑quality C++. Collaboration with the foundation model team and hands‑on work with perception and control will shape next‑gen last‑mile robotics.

Qualifikationen

• Strong background in robotic manipulation, including dynamics, grasp synthesis, and trajectory optimization.
• Master’s degree or higher in Engineering, Robotics, or Machine Learning.
• Minimum five years of industry or research experience; PhD experience is applicable.
• Strong deep learning fundamentals including supervised/self-supervised learning and RL (MDPs, policy optimization, sim-to-real).
• Background in robotics with autonomy/manipulation; experience deploying neural nets on hardware.
• Proficient in production‑level C++ and prototyping in Python.

Aufgaben

• Develop RL algorithms for robust, contact‑rich dexterous manipulation using multi‑sensor input.
• Address real‑world manipulation challenges like diverse packages and door handles.
• Collaborate with foundation model team to leverage simulated and real data.
