We look for Manipulation Engineers who have built systems that grasp, place, insert, and assemble in the real world, not just in simulation. If you obsess over contact dynamics, gripper design, and the gap between a beautiful policy and a robot that fumbles in production, you will love this role.
You will work across grasp planning, contact-rich control, and learning-based manipulation. Expect to bridge simulation and reality, design experiments that isolate failure modes, and partner closely with mechanical engineers on tooling and end-effectors.
We want people who can move fluently between a notebook, a controller, and a workbench. Strong intuition for rigid body dynamics, optimization, and modern robot learning is essential. Familiarity with MuJoCo, Drake, or similar simulators is a plus.
If your favorite demos involve cluttered bins, deformable parts, or tight tolerances, send us a video.
