## About the role

We're looking for an engineer to own how we know whether our robots are actually getting better. As we move from research to production, we need evaluation that's rigorous enough to trust and fast enough to keep up. You'll build the harnesses, task suites, and regression infrastructure that turn "the demo looked good" into a number we can act on. Own the evaluation strategy for our policies in simulation and on real hardware. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Built evaluation, validation, or benchmarking systems that a team made real decisions from
- Fluency with model training and evaluation workflows: comfortable reading a training curve, reasoning about generalization, and telling a real improvement from an overfit one
- Strong software engineering and programming skills
- Practical statistics for experiment design: sample sizing, significance, and knowing when a result is noise
- Demonstrated skepticism: a track record of finding the flaw in a result that everyone else was ready to accept
