Base Salary
$147k - $210k/yr
Responsibilities
- Integrate robot control software and hardware interfaces with a common robotics SDK across simulated and physical platforms, end effectors, and wearable devices.
- Build, validate, and maintain physics simulation environments and software-in-the-loop harnesses that model on-robot software, control loops, and hardware interfaces.
- Run and maintain an on-robot execution harness for local and remote machine learning action models in real time.
- Connect robotic platforms to teleoperation and data-logging systems to capture synchronized sensor streams, robot actions, and demonstrations for model training.
- Develop fleet orchestration and evaluation tools for standardized benchmarks and data collection.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics, or equivalent practical experience.
- At least 3 years of experience developing, integrating, and debugging software for simulated and physical robotic systems.
- Experience with physics simulation environments such as MuJoCo, NVIDIA Isaac Sim, or Gazebo.
- Experience integrating cameras, IMUs, encoders, or tactile sensors; actuator interfaces; and real-time control loops into robotics software stacks.
- Preferred: 5 years of experience building core components of robotics software stacks, SDKs, or hardware abstraction layers.
- Preferred: experience deploying or running machine learning policies, including Vision-Language-Action models or reinforcement learning controllers, on physical robots.
- Preferred: experience with system identification, actuator and sensor modeling, sim-to-real transfer, teleoperation systems, motion tracking hardware, wearable data collection devices, dexterous hands, calibration verification, system health monitoring, or hardware-in-the-loop test pipelines.
Benefits
- US base salary is listed as $147000-$210000, plus a 15% bonus target, equity, and benefits.
- The role is based in the Cambridge lab and involves collaboration with hardware, simulation, machine learning, and research teams.
