Intern, Isaac Loco-Manipulation Team

Join NVIDIA's Isaac Loco-Manipulation team as an intern and develop innovative robot learning technologies that enable humanoid and mobile robots for complex dexterous manipulation and loco-manipulation tasks.

As an intern, you will own a focused applied research project and collaborate with world-class researchers and engineers to turn novel ideas into validated robot capabilities.

Responsibilities:

• Develop novel robot learning methods for advancing performance in humanoids and mobile manipulators for whole-body dexterous tasks.
• Co-develop and advance GR00T and Cosmos robotics foundation models.
• Develop robot-learning technologies to enable large scale deployment of robot autonomy.
• Lead an applied research project from idea conception, prototype development, publication, and software open-source contribution.

Requirements:

• Pursuing a PhD degree or Master Degree in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field.
• Proven strong robotics research or engineering experience through academic projects, publications, and real robot experience.
• Proficiency in Python and C++, with hands-on experience using deep-learning frameworks such as PyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow.
• Experience with physics simulators like Isaac Sim, Isaac Lab, or MuJoCo and transferring data or behaviors between simulated and physical systems.
• Experience with world modeling and world action models.
• Project or research experience in robot learning, including imitation learning or reinforcement learning, and robotics foundation models.

Nice to Have:

• Strong publication record in leading robotics, computer-vision, or machine-learning journals or conferences such as CoRL, RSS, Science Robotics, ICRA, and CVPR.
• Experience in learning robot behaviors from human videos or demonstrations.
• Research or project depth in dexterous bimanual manipulation, whole-body control, or humanoid robotics.
• Passion for transforming research prototypes into scalable robotics products widely embraced by the physical AI community.
