Prior hands-on experience in these areas would be a significant plus.

Your Responsibilities

• AI Methods : Develop and improve deep learning, VLA-based, or transformer-based approaches for video learning in robotics.
• Synthetic Data : Design and implement synthetic robotic videos for large-scale training data generation.
• Multimodality : Explore learning approaches that leverage video, audio, and sensory data.
• Integration : Collaborate with robotics engineers to embed video-based learning methods into robotic systems.
• Architecture : Translate functional and technical requirements into detailed system architecture and design.

Essential Skills

• Education: Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, AI, Automation, or a related field.
• Computer Vision: Strong background in video understanding, action recognition, or video-based imitation learning.
• Deep Learning: Proficiency in methods and frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow), ideally in video or multimodal contexts.
• Datasets: Experience with large-scale video datasets, including preprocessing, annotation, and pipeline design.
• Programming: Familiarity with Python, software development practices and robotics frameworks (e.g., ROS2).
• Soft Skills: Excellent problem-solving abilities, collaborative mindset, and strong communication skills.

Beneficial Skills

• Advanced Models : Experience with transformer-based video models, diffusion models, or multimodal architectures.
• Motion Retargeting : Knowledge of motion retargeting methods in robotics.
• Model Deployment : Experience with serving frameworks such as TorchServe or TensorFlow Extended.
• DevOps : Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and CI/CD pipelines.
• Publications : Track record of scientific publications in leading venues in ML, Computer Vision, or Robotics.
