Description

  • Implement, validate, and iterate on machine learning algorithms for weld perception tasks such as point cloud registration, seam detection, and joint geometry estimation.
  • Build and maintain data pipelines for training and evaluating perception models, including annotated 3D scan ingestion, synthetic data generation, and dataset management.
  • Run model evaluation experiments, perform failure mode analysis, and benchmark performance against quantitative accuracy thresholds.
  • Integrate trained models into production ROS-based robotics services with low-latency inference and deployed cell compatibility.
  • Write clean, well-tested Python code and maintain clear documentation of methods, parameters, and results.
  • Participate in code and experiment reviews and communicate technical findings to guide next steps.
  • Lead research, development, and production deployment of advanced perception algorithms across multiple sensor modalities.
  • Design and lead experiments for state-of-the-art deep learning and geometric feature learning models.
  • Design and lead real-time perception systems for during-weld seam tracking using sensor fusion and probabilistic state estimation.
  • Define and own the end-to-end ML lifecycle from dataset design through fleet deployment, including go/no-go evaluation frameworks.
  • Architect distributed training and hyperparameter optimization workflows and drive data acquisition and annotation strategy.
  • Mentor engineers across levels and provide technical leadership on perception systems and ML methodology.

Requirements

  • Master's or Ph.D. in CS, Robotics, or a related field such as Computer Vision, ML, or Perception; a Bachelor's degree with strong production ML experience is also considered.
  • 3+ years of real-world robotics or industrial ML experience for Experienced level, or 7+ years for Senior/Staff level.
  • Strong Python fluency and hands-on PyTorch experience, including training, evaluating, and deploying deep learning models in production.
  • Experience with 3D point cloud data and libraries such as Open3D, including surface segmentation, spatial queries, and point-wise labeling.
  • Familiarity with 3D deep learning architectures such as PointNet++, GeoTransformer, or similar transformer-based or graph-based approaches.
  • Comfort integrating ML models into production robotics services within ROS-based architectures and containerized deployment environments.
  • For Senior/Staff candidates, a demonstrated track record of leading end-to-end ML projects from dataset design through fleet deployment with rigorous go/no-go frameworks.
  • For Senior/Staff candidates, experience architecting distributed training and hyperparameter optimization workflows.

Benefits

  • Daily free lunch.
  • Flexible PTO.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.
  • 6 weeks of fully paid parental leave, plus an additional 6–8 weeks for birthing parents.
  • 401(k) retirement plan through Empower.
  • Generous employee referral bonuses.
