Job Description

About the job:

We are developing an advanced learning-model based robot designed for real-world deployment in industries such as manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics to address critical labor shortages and help businesses optimize operations.

WHO ARE WE:

We're looking for a highly talented Research Scientist with a deep understanding in developing and fine-tuning foundation modals, particularly in the areas of VLMs, VLAs, Vision Transformers, and multi-modal data. We're looking for someone passionate about tackling difficult AI challenges, such as enabling a learning-model robot to perform dynamic and dexterous tasks in unstructured environments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build foundational model for vision language and action that can exhibit good reasoning and maneuvering capability. Understands transformer based ML architecture really well.
  • Design, train and deploy learning-based perception models for on-robot perception systems. Perception models should be able to do multi-modal learning capturing different semantics such as segmentation, object detection, scene understanding and tracking.
  • Work with ML infrastructure engineers to assess and monitor model performance, analyze and resolve performance bottlenecks.
  • Collaborate with various teams to understand real-world problems and define tasks, incorporating insights into ML products.
  • Produce high-quality code for software development, participate in code reviews to ensure the quality of code, and share knowledge with the team.
  • Comfortable working with sql queries and ETL logic for data ingress.

Qualifications

  • Ms/PhD in Computer Science with minimum 5 years of industry experience with focus in ML/DL, Robotics, similar technical field of study, or equivalent practical experience
