Your mission & challenges
Together, we are taking the step into a new era of cognitive robots:
As an Expert in Reinforcement Learning and Behavior Cloning for Humanoid Robots at NEURA Robotics, you will lead the development and implementation of cutting-edge algorithms and systems. You will collaborate closely with our robotics engineering team to enhance the autonomy, adaptability, and interaction capabilities of our humanoid robots. This includes:
-
Improve the learning pipeline for robust locomotion and loco-manipulation on the 4NE1 humanoid, from policy training to validated on-robot deployment
-
Explore and adapt cutting-edge methods (behavior foundation models, general motion tracking, teleoperation) and ship to customers and other teams.
-
Drive sim-to-real transfer (domain randomization, actuator modeling, physics alignment) to deploy policies from simulation onto real hardware with minimal performance gap.
-
Integrate reinforcement learning and behavior cloning approaches to enable robots to learn from both simulated and real-world interactions.
-
Collaborate with controls, hardware, and perception teams to ensure seamless integration of algorithms with robot hardware and sensors.
-
Conduct experiments and simulations to evaluate and validate algorithmic performance in various scenarios.
What we can look forward to
-
Master’s or Ph.D. in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field
-
Proficiency in programming languages like Python, C++ with hands-on experience in robotics frameworks (e.g., ROS2) and robotic hardware platforms
-
Experience in developing and deploying reinforcement learning algorithms and behavior cloning techniques for robotic systems, with a strong grasp of humanoid robot dynamics, control theory, and sensor integration.
-
Hands-on experience with Isaac Lab / Isaac Sim and/or MuJoCo, and PyTorch.
-
Strong analytical skills and a proven ability to deliver innovative solutions in robotics, ideally including a track record of publications or contributions to conferences and journals
-
Your communication skills make you shine
-
You have a perfect command of the English language and, best of all, speak German well
