Your Role:
As the Embodied AI Tooling Engineer, you will spearhead the development and vision of our end-to-end AI tooling ecosystem. You will own the infrastructure that powers our Embodied AI architecture, ensuring a seamless flow from raw interaction to model training. Your focus areas include:
- Data Acquisition: Building scalable tools for high-fidelity data collection from both
- physical robotic platforms and simulation environments.
- Data Lifecycle Management: Developing advanced pipelines for data
- cleaning, timestamp synchronization, and multimodal data alignment.
- Teleoperation & Remote Orchestration: Engineering low-latency tools for remote robot
- control and real-time tele-monitoring.
You are both a visionary architect and a hands-on technical engineer. You will guide a high[1]impact team to transform cutting-edge robotics research into robust, production-ready capabilities.
Key Responsibilities
- Architecture & Strategy
- System Design: Architect a modular and scalable robotics tooling portfolio that
- simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, and cloud infrastructure.
- Technical Roadmap: Define and execute a strategic roadmap, balancing rapidly.
- innovation with the delivery of stable, high-performance tools.
- Standardization: Establish industry-leading standards for data formats (e.g., MCAP,
- HDF5, LeRobot) and communication protocols across the AI lifecycle.
- Data Engineering & Pipeline Optimization
- Multimodal Alignment: Lead the development of automated tools for multi-sensor data
- fusion and precision timestamp alignment (LiDAR, Camera, IMU, etc.).
- Efficiency Tools: Design sophisticated data "scrubbing" and labeling interfaces to
- accelerate the creation of high-quality humanoid robot datasets.
- Teleoperation & Human-Robot Interaction (HRI)
- Real-time Control: Optimize teleoperation systems for ultra-low latency to improve the quality of human-demonstrated data.
- Visualization: Build intuitive dashboards for real-time monitoring of robot states,
diagnostic telemetry, and environmental perception.
- Collaboration
- Cross-functional Synergy: Partner closely with AI Researchers, Hardware Engineers, and partners to identify and bridge tooling gaps.
Basic Qualifications
- Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
- Experience: 5+ years of experience in software engineering within Robotics, AI, or Autonomous Driving.
- Technical Mastery: Pro-level proficiency in Python and C++. Deep experience with ROS/ROS2 and modern ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow).
- Domain Knowledge: Solid understanding of data pipelines (ETL), sensor fusion, and
- distributed systems. Familiarity with simulation engines like NVIDIA Isaac Sim, Gazebo, or Mujoco.
- System Mindset: Proven track record of shipping complex software products from
- prototype to production.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with teleoperation hardware (HaptX, VR controllers) or human[1]demonstration data collection.
- Contributions to open-source robotics or AI projects (e.g., LeRobot, Hugging Face
- Robotics).
- Experience in Humanoid Robotics or complex multi-degree-of-freedom (DoF) systems.
