Humanoid Manipulation Research Intern | Embodied AI

Field Ai; Boston (MA); Sur place; USD 55 000 - 83 000; Temps partiel

Résumé du poste

FieldAI invites PhD students to join as Research Interns focused on humanoid manipulation, at the intersection of robotics research and applied engineering. You will contribute to manipulation capabilities for embodied intelligence, with aims to publish in top venues.

You will collaborate with researchers to advance perception, planning, and control, and support data pipelines for robotics foundation models while working on real-world robotics challenges.

Qualifications

• PhD student in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, AI/ML, or a closely related field.
• Research experience in robotic manipulation or loco-manipulation.
• Strong foundation in robot kinematics, dynamics, and control.
• Proficiency in Python and/or C++, with experience using robotics or ML tooling.
• Experience designing experiments and evaluating results on robotic systems (simulation or hardware).
• Curiosity and a strong interest in embodied intelligence and real-world robotics.
• Publications in leading robotics journals/conferences (ICRA, IROS, CORL, RA-L, T-RO, etc.)

Responsabilités

• Advance Humanoid Manipulation Research: design, implement, and evaluate manipulation strategies for humanoid robots across diverse tasks.
• Explore loco-manipulation problems integrating perception, planning, and control.
• Work towards super-human dexterity, developing systems that outperform human teleoperation.
• Contribute to the Research Community: publish a paper in leading robotics conferences/journals and present work at Field robotic conferences.
• Contribute to Robotics Foundation Model Development: support data collection pipelines and integrate manipulation data into scalable learning frameworks.
• Collaborate across disciplines: work with teleoperators, field teams, engineers on hardware integration and system bring-up.
