About the Role
Pantograph is training general models that start by watching internet-scale video and end up on robots. We think the path to capable robots runs through general intelligence rather than narrow, robot-specific skills. We're scaling simple methods across video games, real-world video, and our own fleet of affordable, durable robots. We're looking for research scientists who want to scale simple methods across the largest datasets available.
Requirements
- Trained models on large GPU clusters and are comfortable working with Kubernetes
- Believe simple methods that scale beat complicated ones that don't, and reach for the simplest thing that could work
- Strive to find simple, expressive metrics and measure them accurately
- Value scientific integrity and seek to understand the true effect of different interventions
Skills
- Large-scale pre-training (video, multimodal, image, or language)
- Self-supervised, goal-conditioned, or unsupervised RL
- Robotics models, especially those trained on large-scale data
- Video generation or other large-scale sequence modeling over high-dimensional observations (e.g. pixels)
- JAX
- Measure-theoretic probability
- Stochastic processes
- Optimization theory
Experience Level
- Published work or lab experience
- Strong open-source contributions or personal projects
Education Level
- A strong background in proof-based mathematics
