Zusammenfassung

Agile Robots SE in Munich seeks a Robotics Engineer (m/f/d) specializing in Vision-Language-Action (VLA) to implement, fine-tune, and deploy VLA models and multimodal policies for robotic manipulation on production lines.

You will deploy control pipelines on real hardware, integrate vision and language outputs with robot controllers, and lead data collection for iterative improvement while traveling to deployment sites, mainly in China, to gather feedback with on-site engineers.

Qualifikationen

• 2–4 years of professional or applied experience in robotics software, computer vision, or machine learning for robot control.
• Working understanding of Vision-Language-Action models, multimodal transformers, or learning-based manipulation.
• Proficiency in Python and/or C++, with hands-on use of ROS/ROS2, Linux, Docker, Git, and ML frameworks such as PyTorch.
• Solid understanding of kinematics, dynamics, control, and motion planning.
• Experience with sensor integration (cameras, force sensors) and basic control loops.
• English working proficiency; on-site work at Munich headquarters.

Aufgaben

• VLA Development: Implement, fine-tune, and evaluate Vision-Language-Action models and multimodal policies for robotic manipulation tasks.
• Hardware Deployment: Deploy and validate robotic control pipelines on physical hardware in production-line and factory environments.
• Multimodal Integration: Integrate vision, force/torque, and language model outputs into existing robot execution and control frameworks.
• Data Collection: Run data collection campaigns, record robot demonstrations, and set up data pipelines for model training and iteration.
• Edge Performance: Test and tune model performance on edge hardware to maintain consistent inference speed and control frequency.
• Field Deployment: Travel to deployment sites, primarily in China, to deploy solutions on production floors and gather operational feedback alongside on-site engineers.

Jobbeschreibung

We are looking for a Robotics Engineer (m/f/d) VLA, who will implement, fine-tune, and deploy Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models and multimodal robot control policies directly onto physical production lines, turning AI research methods into working factory-floor behavior.

Your Responsibilities

• VLA Development: Implement, fine-tune, and evaluate Vision-Language-Action models and multimodal policies for robotic manipulation tasks.
• Hardware Deployment: Deploy and validate robotic control pipelines on physical hardware in production-line and factory environments.
• Multimodal Integration: Integrate vision, force/torque, and language model outputs into existing robot execution and control frameworks.
• Data Collection: Run data collection campaigns, record robot demonstrations, and set up data pipelines for model training and iteration.
• Edge Performance: Test and tune model performance on edge hardware to maintain consistent inference speed and control frequency.
• Field Deployment: Travel to deployment sites, primarily in China, to deploy solutions on production floors and gather operational feedback alongside on-site engineers.

Essential Skills

• Background: 2–4 years of professional or applied experience in robotics software, computer vision, or machine learning for robot control, or equivalent demonstrated project experience.
• VLA Foundations: Working understanding of Vision-Language-Action models, multimodal transformers, or learning-based manipulation (imitation or reinforcement learning), including the pretrained demonstration base most VLA policies are fine-tuned from.
• Software Craft: Proficiency in modular, readable, and well-tested code in Python and/or C++, with hands‑on use of ROS/ROS2, Linux, Docker, Git, and ML frameworks such as PyTorch.
• Robotics Fundamentals: Solid understanding of kinematics, dynamics, control, and motion planning.
• Physical Systems: Comfortable working directly with physical robots, including sensor integration (cameras, force sensors) and basic control loops.
• Location & Language: Professional working proficiency in English, with availability to work primarily on‑site at our Munich headquarters.

Beneficial Skills

• Production Deployment: Hands‑on experience testing or deploying learned policies in production lines or industrial factory setups.
• Data Pipelines: Experience with robot demonstration processing, data logging, and preparing data for robot learning pipelines.
• Technical Writing: Ability to write clear setup guides and deployment documentation.
• Mandarin Fluency: Verbal and written communication in Mandarin, supporting collaboration at Chinese deployment facilities.
