## About the role

You will build environments, evaluations, agent systems, and post-training methods with an external robotics team. You will train and evaluate agents with reinforcement learning, world modeling, imitation learning, planning, and multimodal perception, using feedback from simulation and deployed robots. The experiments will test behavior under partial observations, long horizons, changing environments, and hardware and safety constraints. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Relevant experience: robotics, embodied AI, RL, imitation learning, control, world models, simulation, computer vision, agent evaluation, or production systems interacting with the physical world
- Hands-on experience building and debugging model-training, post-training, agent, evaluation, or closely adjacent experimental loops
- Strong experimental judgment: meaningful baselines, careful trace inspection, clear failure attribution, and a willingness to change direction when the evidence changes
- Strong Python and the ability to build artifacts that other researchers and engineers can run, inspect, and extend
- Comfort owning ambiguous problems and keeping partners and teammates current as you resolve them
