We aim to (1) double the number of tasks the robot can perform and (2) half the error rate on existing tasks, quarter over quarter. The team works closely together to prioritize direction and scale up a single approach to a production-ready system. </p><h3>Responsibilities </h3><ol><li>Implement and scale up models for end-to-end navigation, manipulation, and locomotion. </li><li>Build the data engine (frontend UI and backend) to log, clean, and label data for foundation model training. </li><li>Solve the general-purpose evaluation problem and bring robot skills to 99%+ success. </li><li>Train and evaluate policies in simulation and solve sim-to-real. </li><li>Work with our robot operations team to scale up our datasets and model capabilities. </li> </ol><h3>Requirements </h3><p><b>Must-Haves: </b> </p><ol><li>Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent. </li><li>Published research in top ML conferences (NeurIPS, CVPR, ICML, ICLR, CoRL, RSS, etc.). </li><li>Proficiency working with and testing large codebases in Python. </li><li>Ability to rapidly prototype ideas in code in an independent manner. </li><li>Familiarity with linear algebra and supervised machine learning. </li><li>Experience with Deep Learning Frameworks (Pytorch, TF, JAX, etc.). </li> </ol><p><b>Nice-to-haves: </b> </p><ol><li>ROS/ROS2 experience. </li><li>Have built large programming projects on your own for fun (e.g., open source projects). </li><li>Training large-scale ML models such as visual foundation models, large language models, pixel-level generative models. </li><li>You spend time reading r/LocalLLaMA/ and tinkering with open source LLM technology. </li><li>Have implemented highly performant software. </li> </ol><h3>Compensation </h3><p>We offer a total compensation package including base salary from US$105,000 to US$250,000 annually, with generous stock options and other benefits. </p><h3>Interview Process </h3><p>Introduction Stage - we have initial conversations to get to know you better: </p><ul><li>(30m) Recruiter Screen with Win Yu </li><li>(45m) Hiring Manager Screen with the AI team </li> </ul><p>Team Interview Stage - we then dive into your experience in more depth and introduce you to members of the team. This is also the stage where you will do your take-home challenge: </p><ul><li>(90m) Technical Deep-Dive conversation with the AI team </li> </ul><p>Final Interview Stage - we move you to our final round: </p><ul><li>(15m) Role expectation management with Eric Jang </li><li>(30m) Conversation with CEO Bernt Øivind Børnich </li> </ul><p>Location: This position is based in Sunnyvale, California, USA, at our newly renovated AI headquarters. We offer visa sponsorship for exceptional candidates. Joining our team means becoming a valued member of one of the biggest brands in humanoid robotics, where you'll play a part in shaping the future of general purpose androids. </p><h3>Company Culture </h3><p>1X is an inclusive and equal-opportunity employer that values diversity. We consider all qualified applicants regardless of race, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, or any other protected class. If you have a disability or special need that requires accommodation, please don't hesitate to let us know during the interview process. We will do our best to accommodate your needs. </p>#J-18808-Ljbffr
