About the Role

As our VLA/WAM Integration and Deployment specialist, you will turn our VLA and World-Action Model research into reliable capabilities running on real humanoid robots. This is a broad, hands-on role for someone who enjoys making advanced models work as part of a complete autonomous system rather than optimizing a single research component in isolation.

Responsibilities

  • Deploy and validate learned policies across multiple humanoid platforms and real-world tasks.
  • Optimize model serving, latency, action generation, asynchronous execution, and closed-loop control for real-time robot operation.
  • Connect VLA/WAM policies with higher-level agents for task decomposition, policy selection, structured conditioning, verification, recovery, and replanning.
  • Develop improved workflows for teleoperation, interventions, autonomous rollouts, failures, recoveries, and targeted post-training data collection.
  • Develop reproducible real-robot evaluations, regression suites, failure analysis, and principled comparisons between model versions.
  • Turn real-world successes and failures into datasets and experiments that improve subsequent pre-training and post-training.

Requirements

  • Strong Python and PyTorch skills and experience working with modern deep-learning systems.
  • Experience deploying learning-based models in robotics, autonomous systems, or another real-time embodied setting.
  • Familiarity with VLA, VLM, diffusion, flow-matching, video/world-model, or related multimodal architectures.
  • Strong systems intuition around inference latency, model serving, data pipelines, logging, and debugging complex ML systems.
  • Experience designing rigorous evaluation and diagnosing failures in learned systems.
  • Comfort working directly with robots, sensors, data collection, and imperfect real-world hardware.
  • Ability to work across model training, deployment, data, infrastructure, and integration rather than within a narrowly defined research area.
  • Experience with agentic AI systems, tool use, hierarchical policies, planning, or closed-loop verification.
  • Experience with TensorRT, torch.compile, quantization, model compression, or other inference optimization techniques.
  • Experience with teleoperation, human-in-the-loop learning, autonomous data collection, or online/post-training workflows.
  • Experience with humanoids, dexterous manipulation, loco-manipulation, or whole-body control.
  • Familiarity with reinforcement learning, continual learning, and sim-to-real.
