What You’ll Do
Train RL policies for high-precision manipulation in large-scale, GPU-parallel simulation.
Transfer policies from simulation to real industrial robots, using vision and force/torque sensing.
Scale from task-specific policies to generalist models that handle new parts without retraining.
Combine foundation models (VLAs, world models) with RL to solve long-horizon assembly tasks.
Deploy and evaluate policies on real robotic cells with customers, and use the results to improve the models.
Who You Are
MS or PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field.
Hands-on experience applying RL to manipulation or contact-rich control.
Experience with sim-to-real transfer and GPU-parallel simulation (e.g., Isaac Lab, MuJoCo).
Experience deploying learned policies on physical robots.
Strong Python and PyTorch or JAX skills, including training at scale.
