Robotics Research Scientist - Human Data & Multimodal AI

DeepMind Technologies Limited; Greater London; Presencial; GBP 100.000 - 140.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

Google DeepMind is seeking a Research Scientist to design, implement, and evaluate large robotic models, integrating scalable data sources and human action data into robotics foundation models. You will work with simulators and real-world robots to push dexterity and generalization, reporting findings to internal and external teams.

You will contribute to research that spans reinforcement learning, vision-language-action models, and multimodal data, collaborating across global teams while

Formación

• PhD in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 2 years of experience with reinforcement learning and imitation learning.
• Experience with vision, vision-language, video, and other multimodal models.
• Experience with multimodal generative modeling, training and inference.
• Experience with capture methodologies, dataset design, experimentation, and incorporation of captured human action data into VLAs or WAMs.
• Experience working with simulators and real-world robots, esp. dexterous manipulation, and multimodal sensing (e.g. tactile, forces).

Responsabilidades

• Design, implement, train and evaluate large models and algorithms for robotic agents, making breakthroughs and unlocking new robot capabilities.
• Write software to implement research ideas and iterate quickly, working effectively with a large collaborative team with fast-paced agendas to meet ambitious research goals.
• Develop methodologies and design and conduct experiments for incorporating scalable data sources, especially human data with or without capture devices into our robotics foundation models.
• Leverage broader expertise to participate in a wide variety of research, including learning from simulation, reinforcement learning, learning from demonstrations, vision-language-action models, transformers, video generation, robot control, humanoid robots and more.
• Report and present research findings clearly and efficiently both internally and externally.
