About the Role
You will design model architectures and structured world representations across vision, language, and proprioception. You will advance multimodal learning, improve generalization and robustness, conduct experiments, train and deploy models, and integrate modeling advances into the autonomy stack.
Requirements
- Deep learning for vision, language, or multimodal systems
- Model architecture design
- Transformer
- Python
- PyTorch
- Software engineering
- Experimental rigor
Responsibilities
- Design model architectures for multimodal perception, reasoning, and action
- Build models that learn structured world representations
- Advance multimodal fusion, alignment, and cross-modal reasoning
- Improve generalization, robustness, and long-horizon reasoning
- Research, prototype, train, and deploy models
- Integrate modeling advances into the autonomy stack
- Design experiments and evaluation frameworks
- Develop new modeling paradigms for embodied AI
