Job Description:

Chewy Robotics is seeking a Staff Roboticist to join our Physical AI research and development team in Woburn, MA. As a senior individual contributor, you will lead the creation and deployment of robotic systems and AI algorithms that enable bi-manual manipulation of heavy deformables, touch-augmented vision-language-action (VLA) model training, and whole-body control and reinforcement learning for humanoid robots. You will serve as a technical authority in control systems, perception, and integrated robotic architectures that advance Chewy’s efforts to build the next generation of physical AI.

Job Responsibility:

  • Lead the research, design, and development of control architectures for humanoid and multi-agent robotic systems, integrating vision, force, touch, and learning-based approaches
  • Develop and implement advanced algorithms for dynamic control, manipulation, and interaction with deformable objects
  • Design and prototype real-time control systems, simulation pipelines, and model-based controllers for robotic platforms
  • Utilize modern simulation and training environments such as Isaac Lab or Gym for robot learning, and Isaac Sim, Gazebo, or Mujoco for robotic system modeling and validation
  • Collaborate with scientists to develop reinforcement learning and imitation learning pipelines for dexterous manipulation and whole-body coordination, leveraging frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow
  • Apply control theory and modeling tools such as MATLAB/Simulink for control system design, system identification, and validation
  • Contribute to the architecture and deployment of distributed robotic systems, including communication frameworks for heterogeneous robot fleets
  • Author and publish results in peer-reviewed journals and conferences, contributing to the state of the art in physical AI
  • Provide technical mentorship and review designs and experiments conducted by junior engineers and research assistants
  • Act as a bridge between AI, mechanical, electrical, and controls disciplines, ensuring that integrated systems perform reliably and are grounded in sound engineering principles

Requirements:

  • MS or PhD in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, with 8+ years of experience in robotics R&D or advanced control systems
  • Deep expertise in robot dynamics, control, and motion planning, including model predictive control (MPC), impedance/admittance control, or whole-body control
  • Demonstrated experience with reinforcement learning, simulation-to-reality transfer, or learning-based control
  • Strong software background in C/C++, Python, and ROS/ROS2, with experience in real-time control and embedded systems
  • Proficiency with modern robotics simulation tools (Isaac Sim, Gazebo, Mujoco) and learning platforms (Isaac Lab, Gym)
  • Experience using MATLAB/Simulink for system modeling, control design, and signal processing
  • Familiarity with estimation algorithms such as Kalman and particle filters, SLAM frameworks, and sensor fusion methods for localization and perception
  • Working knowledge of image processing techniques, digital filter design, and signal processing
  • Familiarity with sensing and perception systems including force-torque sensing, IMU, RGB-D, or LiDAR fusion
  • Proven track record of delivering complex robotic systems from concept to prototype, including cross-functional integration of hardware and software
  • Strong communication and leadership skills with the ability to influence teams and articulate a broad technical vision

Nice to have:

  • Publication record and/or patents in relevant robotics, perception, or control domains preferred
  • Experience in humanoid robotics or wearable/exoskeleton systems
  • Familiarity with distributed control or orchestration of heterogeneous robot fleets
  • Experience leading or contributing to open-source robotics or AI projects
