Description

The Opportunity

As a Senior AI/ML Engineer, you will work at the intersection of foundation models and robotics, developing systems that combine vision, language, and action for embodied intelligence.

You will help bridge cutting-edge AI research with real-world robotic applications, ensuring that large-scale models can operate reliably in physical environments. This role sits at the core of building robots that can perceive, reason, and act intelligently in dynamic settings.

Your Responsibilities

  • Design and train foundation models that integrate vision, language, and actions for embodied intelligence
  • Adapt LLMs and VLMs for robotic control, planning, and interactive behavior, enabling context-aware decision making
  • Develop AI-driven control policies for manipulation, grasping, and motion planning using reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and foundation model approaches
  • Build modular, scalable, and high-performance data processing, training, and inference pipelines for large-scale datasets
  • Design reproducible workflows for training, evaluation, and deployment, including benchmarking for generalization, safety, and task success
  • Stay current with advances in AI and robotics, translating research into production systems and contributing to papers, patents, or open-source work

Technologies

  • Python, C++
  • PyTorch (or TensorFlow / JAX)
  • Transformer-based models (LLMs, VLMs, multimodal architectures)
  • Distributed training frameworks
  • Linux, Docker (Kubernetes nice to have)
  • ML pipelines and model deployment systems

Requirements

Must Have

    • MSc (6+ years industry) or PhD (2+ years industry) in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, AI, or related field
    • Strong background in machine learning, deep learning, and optimization
    • Hands-on experience with transformer-based architectures (LLMs, VLMs, multimodal models)
    • Strong Python skills and good proficiency in C++
    • Experience with PyTorch (or TensorFlow / JAX)
    • Solid software engineering skills (clean code, testing, system design, CI/CD)
    • Strong mathematical and statistical foundation
    • Experience working in Linux environments and with Docker

Nice to Have

    • Experience with reinforcement learning or imitation learning
    • Robotics experience (perception, control, or manipulation systems)
    • Experience with distributed training at scale
    • Kubernetes or large-scale deployment systems
    • Publications, open-source contributions, or research background in AI/ Robotics

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation package
  • Various employee subsidies and perks, including public transportation and Wellpass
  • Work with a world-class team in a flat hierarchy, with direct collaboration alongside the founders and engineering team
  • Opportunity to make a real impact by working on cutting-edge robotics and AI systems
  • Fast growth potential in a rapidly evolving company and industry
  • International office environment with English as the official working language
