About the role
We're building foundational models for general purpose manipulation. Our data infrastructure allows us to generate rich, multi-modal human demonstration data at exponential scale.
We are using this data to train general-purpose manipulation models that work reliably across tasks, objects, and robot embodiments.
As founding engineer, you'll own the model pipeline end-to-end - data curation, selecting architecture, training and evaluation. You'll have $750K in compute credits across Azure, AWS, and GCP, NVIDIA Inception perks, and a bespoke data pipeline already running.
You should have:
Experience implementing models end-to-end on robots, or research experience in VLAs, world models, or imitation learning
Proof of decision-making with incomplete information
Extremely competitive nature
A track record that shows you genuinely want to see robots deployed in the real world - projects, research, or competitions
Our culture is built on honesty and willingness to fail fast. If you see yourself fitting here, please apply.
