Responsibilities

Design and iterate on scalable, interpretable spatio-temporal-semantic world models
Fuse multi-modal sensing with semantics and embedded risk analysis
Ensure real-time performance with low latency in dynamic, uncertain environments
Develop reasoning and decision-making systems that remain reliable under uncertainty and enable success in complex real-world missions
Validate reasoning systems across challenging edge-case scenarios (e.g., sudden obstacles, degraded sensing)
Integrate reasoning with perception and control for closed-loop autonomy at high mission success rates
Implement diagnostic layers that log reasoning steps for interpretability and post-mission analysis
Develop fail-safe behaviors that trigger under uncertain or conflicting world-state estimates
Ensure adaptability to new environments while always prioritizing safety

Required

Master's degree or higher in Robotics, Computer Science, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, with focus on autonomy, reasoning, or decision-making
Strong foundation in algorithms for reasoning and decision-making under uncertainty (e.g., probabilistic methods, motion planning, decision theory, foundation models)
Demonstrated experience building and deploying autonomy systems in simulation and/or real-world robotic platforms
Strong software engineering skills in C++ and Python, with experience developing real-time robotics or AI systems
Track record of research contributions (e.g., publications, open-source projects) or demonstrated ability to advance state-of-the-art methods into practical systems

Preferred

Background in semantic reasonings, human-robot interaction, or multi-agent system
Familiarity with ROS or similar middleware for robotics development and deployment
Knowledge of hardware-aware optimization and acceleration of autonomy stacks (e.g., real-time constraints, GPU/TPU programming)
Experience deploying autonomy on physical robotic platforms in real-world field environments (e.g., outdoor, off-road, degraded sensing)
Proficiency in modern machine learning techniques relevant to robotics (e.g., reinforcement learning, foundation models, representation learning)
