Role overview
Our client is building rugged,
multi-purpose humanoid robots
designed to perform real work in real-world environments.
The founding team brings decades of experience across humanoid robotics, bionics, and large-scale hardware product development, with systems that have operated in extreme environments across land, sea, space, and complex public settings. Their mission is to ship beautiful, reliable robotic products at scale while building a highly customer-focused engineering team.
We are looking for a
Deep Learning Manipulation Engineer
to help train humanoid robots to perform dexterous manipulation tasks in the real world. This is an opportunity for someone who thrives on hard problems, enjoys ambiguity, and wants to see their work directly translated into deployed robotic systems. Candidates with experience shipping real products are especially compelling, though strong aptitude and drive are equally valued.
As one of the early hires in this team, you will help shape the overall deep learning and manipulation strategy, infrastructure, and technical direction. You’ll work on cutting-edge problems at the intersection of learning, control, sensing, and hardware.
What we're looking for
- Experience with adjacent ML areas in robotics such as perception, point clouds, segmentation, and object detection
- Publications at top machine learning or robotics conferences
- Hands-on experience deploying robots, collecting large datasets, and training models that run reliably in production environments
Why Join
- Opportunity to shape the future of humanoid robotics and real-world autonomy
- Work alongside deeply experienced, mission-driven engineers and researchers
- Access to advanced labs, prototyping tools, and the freedom to experiment
- Competitive compensation, strong benefits, flexible working arrangements, and meaningful equity
