About the Role

You will define scientific direction for embodied intelligence and biped AI. You will build and mentor scientists and engineers, evaluate robot-learning approaches, develop real-to-simulation learning loops, set rigorous evaluations, integrate advances into deployed systems, and share technical work through publications and collaborations.

Requirements

• Record of significant contributions to AI, deep learning, robot learning, or a related field
• Expertise in robot learning, world models, manipulation, whole-body control, 3D perception, or simulation and learning for physical systems
• Experience defining scientific roadmaps and leading programs through uncertainty
• Track record of recruiting and mentoring scientists and engineers
• Commitment to evaluating, integrating, and deploying reliable robots
• Ability to collaborate across disciplines and communicate complex technical ideas clearly

Responsibilities

• Define scientific direction and priorities for embodied intelligence and biped AI
• Build and mentor a team of scientists and engineers
• Evaluate approaches in robot learning, world models, manipulation, loco-manipulation, perception, and simulation
• Develop learning loops between robot data, simulation, training, evaluation, and deployment
• Integrate AI advances into reliable systems across platforms
• Set evaluations and milestones for generalisation, reliability, data efficiency, and human-robot interaction
• Share technical work through publications and conferences
• Develop academic and industry collaborations
