Robotics Engineer: Foundation Model Training

About this Role

We're hiring Research Engineers to develop foundation models for GRID. You'll work across model architecture, large-scale training, reinforcement learning, simulation, and evaluation to build robotic behaviors that generalize across tasks, environments, and embodiments.

We value exceptional depth in one or more relevant areas; candidates are not expected to have experience across all of them.

Responsibilities

• Formulate research hypotheses and design rigorous experiments informed by deployment needs.
• Develop and scale foundation models for robotic perception and action.
• Leverage simulation and diverse datasets for pretraining, post-training, reinforcement learning, and evaluation.
• Scale existing simulation platforms for data generation and reinforcement learning across heterogeneous scenes and tasks.
• Advance generalization beyond demonstrated tasks and robust spatial understanding.
