Founding Field Robot Learning Engineer

Lucé Robotics; Paris; Hybrid; EUR 95,000 - 130,000; Full time

Job summary

Lucé Robotics is seeking a Robotics ML Engineer to teach robots new skills and improve performance across deployments. You will own the manipulation stack—from teleoperation data collection to training, evaluation, and deployment of policies using imitation learning and RL.

You will drive autonomous capabilities from teleoperation to supervised end-to-end autonomy. The role emphasizes real-time model shipping within edge compute budgets, strong PyTorch proficiency, and building data pipelines

Qualifications

• Experience training and deploying imitation-learning or RL policies on real robots.
• Able to ship models that run in real time within an edge compute budget.
• Strong in PyTorch, data pipelines and robot evaluation.
• Background from a robot learning lab or industry team (manipulation, humanoids, mobile manipulation).

Responsibilities

• Own the manipulation stack: collect teleoperation data, train, evaluate, and deploy policies.
• Develop the path to autonomy task by task: teleoperation, assisted autonomy, then supervised end-to-end autonomy.
• Perform RL post-training in simulation, sim-to-real transfer, and distilling models for onboard deployment.
• Build the data flywheel that improves models across tasks and markets.
