About this role

Your mission & challenges

  • Drive the development of cognitive robotics applications through Physical AI and the NeuraGym platform.

  • Training & Fine-tuning cutting-edge models: Take foundation models to production-ready robotic intelligence by executing the full NeuraGym pipeline — including teleoperation, data annotation, training, simulation, deployment, and validation — tailored to real-world robotics applications. Define the data strategy that makes a fine-tune work and own the full post-training loop inlcuding hyperparamter interation, data mixture, LoRA and a honest evaluation.

  • Hands-on robotics: Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to design, build, and optimize next-generation intelligent robotic systems powered by AI.

  • Customer Enablement & Support: Guide and onboard users to NeuraGym by reviewing training pipelines and scripts, identifying data quality issues, troubleshooting model behavior, and providing hands-on support to resolve persistent blockers.

  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Serve as a key interface between the Cloud and AI teams, ensuring smooth collaboration, technical alignment, and efficient problem-solving across domains.

  • Product & Research Feedback Loop: Translate field experience and customer insights into actionable feedback for both the NeuraGym product roadmap and the Neura core AI roadmap

What we can look forward to

  • Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering or related field

  • Hands-on machine-learning experience in robotics - strong in at least one of: vision-based manipulation, reinforcement/imitation learning, or multimodal models - and keen to learn the rest

  • Demonstrable experience fine-tuning large pretrained models for robotics or another domain: PEFT/LoRA and full fine-tunes, dataset curation, distillation, and evaluation. Familiarity with the open VLA and policy-learning ecosystem (e.g. π0/π0.5, OpenVLA, LeRobot, diffusion policies) is a strong plus

  • Solid Python skills (C++ a plus); practical experience with PyTorch or TensorFlow
    Comfortable working directly with real robot hardware and associated middleware

  • Cloud experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and experience with robotic simulation tools (IsaacSim, MuJoCo, etc.) is a plus

  • Proven problem-solving abilities and ability to handle multiple projects in parallel

  • Strong bias toward execution and a high level of personal commitment: you take deployments personally, work through setbacks, and measure yourself by what runs at the customer

  • Clear communicator who can translate between researchers, engineers and end-users. You have a good command of English and German language (B2 - C1 level)
