General Robotics is building general-purpose intelligence for every robot in any form, across any real-world scenarios. True generalist robots need more than just a foundation model. Backed by Khosla Ventures.
About the role
We're hiring Research Engineers to develop foundation models for GRID. You'll work across model architecture, large-scale training, reinforcement learning, simulation, and evaluation to build robotic behaviors that generalize across tasks, environments, and embodiments. We value exceptional depth in one or more relevant areas; candidates are not expected to have experience across all of them.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Robotics, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
- Research or applied experience in machine learning, robotics, or computer vision
- Strong Python programming skills and experience with PyTorch
- Experience developing and evaluating machine-learning models or robotics algorithms
- Experience with at least one robotics simulation platform
- Familiarity with inverse kinematics, dynamics, and robotic manipulation
