  • Knowledge of vision-language-action (VLA) models is a plus.
  • Experience working in Linux and with version control (Git).
  • Experience with ROS 2.
  • Familiarity with edge AI hardware (e.g. NVIDIA Jetson) and inference optimization (TensorRT, quantization).
  • Familiarity with SLAM, navigation stacks (e.g. Nav2), or sensor fusion with LiDAR and depth cameras.
  • Experience with robotics simulation (Gazebo, Isaac Sim).
  • Ability to work independently and communicate technical results clearly.
  • Applicants must submit their GitHub profiles alongside resumes.
  • Comfort operating in a high-voltage industrial test lab under supervised safety protocols.

We offer:
