Sr. SDE - Robot Manipulation & Learning, Frontier AI Robotics

Job description

We are seeking to hire software engineers who are excited about research for robot manipulation with the goal of developing manipulation systems at human-level performance. Our strategy focuses on a real2sim2real pipeline that learns from large scale human videos and leverage simulation and reinforcement learning to bridge the human-to-robot embodiment gap. Key job responsibilities • Learning manipulation: Design and implement robot learning algorithms for manipulation • Leverage vision models to extract 3D hand-object manipulation information from real-world situations • Develop large-scale real2sim2real pipeline for manipulation • Multimodal Sensor Fusion: Integrate tactile sensing, proprioception and vision into the learning pipeline About the team At Frontier AI Robotics (FAR), we're not just advancing robotics – we're reimagining it from the ground up. Our team is building the future of intelligent robotics through frontier foundation models and end-to-end learned systems. We tackle some of the most challenging problems in AI and robotics, from developing sophisticated perception systems to creating adaptive manipulation strategies that work in complex, real-world scenarios. What sets us apart is our unique combination of ambitious research vision and practical impact. We leverage Amazon's massive computational infrastructure and rich real-world datasets to train and deploy state-of-the-art foundation models. Our work spans…
