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

  1. 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.
  1. 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.
  1. 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.

  1. 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.

Salary Range

($100,000-$120,000 DOE), plus benefits and incentive plans

Perks + Benefits

  • Healthcare + dental + vision benefits (Free for you / discounted for family)
  • 401(k) options
  • Casual dress code + relaxed work environment
