## Description

We are seeking a hands-on robotics engineer who thrives at the intersection of theory and system-building. You will collaborate closely with researchers on high-impact robot learning projects, translating cutting-edge algorithms into robust, deployable behavior.

Responsibilities:

- Develop and maintain complete control stacks for robotic systems, including low-level control, motion planning, and integration of learned policies.

- Develop and maintain the sim-to-real pipeline, including system identification, understanding simulation models, and deploying learned policies from simulation to real hardware.

- Lead robot set-up across manipulation and mobile hardware platforms, including integration, calibration, and system tuning.

- Diagnose and resolve complex system behaviors across hardware, software, and runtime.

- Collaborate closely with researchers to translate algorithms into reliable, real-world robotic behavior.

- Work with modern GPU-accelerated simulation frameworks to enable large-scale experimentation.

Requirements:

- Master's + 3 years experience or PhD in robotics or relevant field. Exceptional candidates with a bachelor's degree and 3+ years of industry experience are also welcome to apply.

- Proficiency in Python and modern robotics / simulation ecosystems.

- Strong depth of experience working with either physical robots or robotic simulation.

- Strong development and debugging skills across the full robotics stack.

- Clear communication and ability to collaborate effectively with research teams.

- A structured, systems-oriented approach to building and improving complex robotic infrastructure.

Benefits:

- Medical, dental, vision, basic life insurance, basic accidental death and dismemberment insurance, short-term disability, long-term disability, and an employee assistance program.

- Voluntary life insurance program, voluntary accidental death and dismemberment program, health savings account plan, healthcare reimbursement arrangement plan, and health care and dependent care flexible spending account plans.

- 401k plan.

- $125 per month to assist with commuting or internet expenses.

- $200 per month for fitness and wellbeing expenses.

- Up to ten sick days per year, up to seven personal days per year, up to 20 vacation days per year, and twelve paid holidays throughout the calendar year.

- Annual bonuses and long-term incentive plan.
