## About the role

• Design and deploy vision-language(-action) models (VLM/VLA) for contextual understanding and generalized robot action policies. • Develop and train world models for action-conditioned prediction, long-horizon planning, and environment simulation — enabling robots to reason about the consequences of their actions before execution.

- • PhD degree in Machine Learning, Robotics, or related field, or Master's degree with 4+ years of relevant experience
- • Proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, JAX)
- • Expertise in large foundation models (VLM, VLA, etc.)
- • Strong understanding of world model architectures and action-conditioned generative modeling for robot learning
- • Decent understanding of multimodal models, modern ML architectures (transformers, diffusion models, etc.)
- • Requires 5 days/week in-office collaboration with the teams
