About the Role

You will lead policy pretraining, training the policies that map robot perceptions to actions. As a senior individual contributor, you will own a core part of the pretraining stack end-to-end, take major training experiments from idea to trustworthy results, and set direction for others.

Responsibilities

  • Design and train policy-pretraining models, owning significant parts of the architecture and training loop.
  • Design, run, and analyze experiments; debug training dynamics; iterate quickly.
  • Build reusable components and drive the efficiency and reliability of the pretraining pipeline.
  • Investigate model behavior from data and metrics, and turn findings into concrete improvements.
  • Set technical direction for pretraining and mentor engineers on the stack.

Requirements

  • Deep hands-on experience training deep models with strong engineering fundamentals in a modern ML framework.
  • A track record of driving ambiguous, large-scale training workstreams to a result independently.
  • Comfort reasoning about model behavior from data and metrics rather than intuition alone.
  • The judgment to make sound modeling and architecture trade-offs and set direction others follow.
  • Experience mentoring engineers and raising technical standards.
