Job Description:

Meta Reality Labs Research is seeking a Robotics Research Scientist to drive foundational and applied research aimed at advancing state-of-the-art robotic architectures, dynamic in-hand manipulation, generalizable dexterous and functional manipulation, as well as tactile and multimodal sensing and perception. In this position, you will collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary team of researchers and engineers to push the boundaries of robotics science and technology. Our internships are twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.

Job Responsibility:

  • Explore forward-looking ways and novel robotic architectures to advance dynamic in-hand manipulation, generalizable dexterous and functional manipulation (rigid to deformable objects in-hand to against the environment)
  • Research novel sensors, robotic systems architectures, planning and control algorithms that involve tactile and multimodal vision and perception, dexterous manipulation and collision avoidance
  • Develop machine learning models and end-to-end applications for robotics, dexterous manipulation, and contextual understanding
  • Invent novel paradigms for robotics sensing and intelligence, leveraging a variety of sensing and machine perception modalities (images, video, audio, tactile, etc.)
  • Develop efficient models deployable to robotic systems, integrate research into full system-level robotic prototypes

Requirements:

  • Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a PhD degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Machine Learning, Robotics or related field
  • Research experience in at least one of the following research areas: robot learning, dexterous manipulation, control theory, optimization algorithms, representation learning, self-supervised learning, multimodal learning, vision-language-action (VLA) models, reinforcement learning, imitation learning, robotics policy development, computer vision, egocentric perception, embodied AI and/or LLMs
  • Experience in C/C++ and Python and deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow)
  • Must obtain work authorization in country of employment at the time of hire, and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment

Nice to have:

  • Proven track record of achieving significant results as demonstrated by grants, fellowships, patents, as well as first-authored publications at leading workshops or conferences such as Robotics (RSS, ICRA, IROS, CoRL, T-RO, IJRR), Machine Learning (NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, AAAI, JMLR), and Computer Vision (CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, TPAMI)
  • Experience with research and development of humanoid robots and dexterous robot hands
  • Experience with embedded systems and communication protocols
  • Experience with robotics frameworks such as Robot Operation System (ROS), along with experience working with robotic simulations and real-world robots
  • Experience bringing-up and debugging prototype/scientific software-hardware systems (e.g., robotics platforms, multi-camera sensing/tracking solutions, wearable sensing systems)
  • Experience working and communicating cross-functionally in a team environment
  • Intent to return to degree program after the completion of the internship/co-op
