On-siteEngineeringFull-time
What You'll Do
- Contribute to training runs: Work alongside founding engineers on world model or eval model experiments end-to-end
- Run real-robot evaluations: Collect demonstration data, run policies on physical hardware, and document failure modes
- Build tooling: Write Python and PyTorch code that improves our data engine, training pipelines, or eval infrastructure
- Close the sim-to-real gap: Run experiments that test how well simulation predicts real-robot behavior
Requirements
- Strong coding in Python and PyTorch
- Currently enrolled in a BS, MS, or PhD program in ML, robotics, computer vision, or a related field
- Hands-on experience training or fine-tuning a generative model, VLM, or policy (coursework or research counts)
- Ability to work in-person in San Francisco
Nice to Have
- Experience with real robot hardware or simulation environments (Isaac, MuJoCo, etc.)
- Prior research in manipulation, 3D vision, or model evaluation
