About the role
MicroAGI is building the data layer for physical AI to enable robots to operate in real-world environments like factories and homes. This role involves training and deploying modern neural robotic policies for customer tasks. It is an early-career position focused on translating research into reliable systems that operate outside the laboratory.
Responsibilities
- Train neural policies for manipulation and other embodied tasks using real and simulated data.
- Build data, training, evaluation, and deployment pipelines for robotic policies.
- Run experiments in simulation and transfer successful policies onto real robots.
- Collect demonstrations and deployment data, diagnose failure modes, and improve policies iteratively.
- Evaluate models for robustness, generalisation, latency, and real-world task success.
- Work alongside deployment engineers at customer sites to adapt policies to new environments and workflows.
- Turn research ideas into systems that operate reliably outside the lab.
