  • Strong background in computer vision, deep learning, and sensor fusion.
  • Proficiency in Python and C++, with experience in frameworks like PyTorch, TensorFlow, OpenCV, and ROS.
  • Hands-on experience with real-world robotics perception systems (e.g., SLAM, 3D reconstruction, multimodal perception).
  • Experience working with hardware, including setting up and calibrating cameras, LiDAR, and other sensors.
  • Experience with data collection, preprocessing, and management in the context of training ML models.
  • Self-starter attitude with strong ability to identify problems, prioritize them, then plan and execute working solutions.
  • Enthusiasm for working in a fast paced startup environment and eagerness to support the team on a variety of topics.
Nice-to-have:
  • Familiarity with robotic simulation environments (e.g., Gazebo, MuJoCo) and experience in sim-to-real transfer.
  • Experience in:
    • Developing models that can handle noisy, incomplete, or sparse data.
    • Deployment of ML models to edge devices for real-time inference (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson).
