Descrizione del lavoro

NVIDIA Research is seeking research interns in Singapore to advance fundamental and applied robotics research, with a particular focus on agentic robotics. We are interested in exploring how AI agents can autonomously develop, refine, and generalize robotic capabilities by integrating reasoning, programming, experimentation, and feedback within the full robot systems stack. Our research spans robot learning, planning, simulation, perception, and control, with an emphasis on building intelligent systems that can generalize over tasks, environments, and embodiments. We are looking for interns with strong research and engineering skills, intellectual curiosity, and a collaborative mindset. You will have the opportunity to formulate and pursue ambitious research questions, develop novel algorithms and systems, and validate your ideas through rigorous experimentation. Research projects will be aligned with your expertise and the team's priorities, with opportunities to contribute to scientific publications and practical robotic systems.
