## About the role

FieldAI ’s Irvine team is where embodied AI meets real robots, real sensors, and real field deployments. Based in the heart of Southern California’s robotics ecosystem, we build risk-aware, reliable, field-ready AI systems that solve the hardest problems in robotics and unlock the full potential of embodied intelligence. If you want your work to ship, get tested on hardware, and improve through real deployments, Irvine is the place. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Hands-on experience with vision-language or foundation models applied to spatial reasoning, memory, or long-horizon embodied question answering
- Depth in 3D representations: scene graphs, neural or Gaussian-splat maps, or object-centric maps, and the estimation underneath them
- Strong Python, able to run your methods on real robots with C++ and ROS 2
- Clear thinking about what a representation is for and how to evaluate it, and comfort with a fast-paced environment where research questions are set by what the next deployment needs
