Applied Robotics Engineer - Customer Deployments

OMN4I (Stealth); München; Vor Ort; EUR 60.000 - 90.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

OMN4I (Stealth) seeks engineers to deploy humanoid robots at customer sites, starting with simple tasks and expanding as proof of value. You will leverage today’s open-source robotics software and control stacks to deliver practical solutions now, while directly engaging customers to define use cases and expectations.

You’ll document deployments as benchmarks to guide research priorities and model performance, working hands-on in early-stage projects across different industries.

Qualifikationen

• Hands-on experience deploying robots in real-world environments.
• Strong familiarity with open-source robotics software and control stacks.
• Interest in customer-facing aspects: scoping use cases and managing expectations.
• Willingness to be the sole on-site engineer for deployments.

Aufgaben

• Scope, install, and run humanoid robot deployments at customer sites for narrowly defined, high-value tasks.
• Build on open-source software and control stacks; ship best available solution now.
• Collaborate with customers across segments to identify entry use cases and capture operational requirements.
• Turn deployments into benchmarks to guide model improvements and field comparisons.

Jobbeschreibung

MISSION

We're building a physics-grounded, self-play-trained world model for general-purpose robot fleets. But the fastest way to know which use cases matter, where the hard problems actually are, and what "good enough" looks like isn't a whiteboard — it's a robot doing a real job at a real customer site. You'd own that: getting humanoid robots deployed on simple, well-scoped tasks using today's best available open-source software, and turning that experience into the customer insight and the baseline our research has to outperform.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Scope, install, and run humanoid robot deployments at customer sites for narrowly defined, high-value tasks — starting simple, expanding as it proves out.
• Build on today's open-source robot software and control stacks rather than waiting for our own models to be ready; ship the best available solution now.
• Work directly with customers across segments to find the strongest entry use cases and build real operational understanding of what they actually need.
• Turn each deployment into a structured benchmark — a concrete bar that our internally developed models need to beat before they replace the open-source baseline in the field.
• Feed what you learn (task structure, failure modes, customer constraints) directly back into the research team's priorities.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

• Hands-on experience deploying robots (humanoid or otherwise) on real tasks outside a lab — you've made something work in an environment you didn't fully control.
• Strong working knowledge of open-source robotics software and control stacks, and comfort integrating and adapting them quickly rather than building from scratch.
• Genuine interest in the customer side of robotics: scoping a use case, managing expectations, understanding what "reliable enough to trust" means for a specific operation.
• Comfortable being the only person on the ground for a deployment — this is early-stage, hands-on, and often unglamorous work.

NICE TO HAVE

• Prior experience in a customer-facing or field deployment role (industrial automation, applied robotics, systems integration).
• Familiarity with benchmarking methodology — designing evaluations that are fair, reproducible, and actually predictive of real-world performance.
• Background with humanoid platforms specifically, or general-purpose (non-task-specific) robots.
• Comfort traveling to customer sites as needed.
