Jobs at AIRoA (AI Robot Association)

Design, implement, and verify firmware and embedded software for humanoids, dual-arm robots, robotic hands, and teleoperation systems. Develop low-level control platforms, device drivers, communications (CAN/UART/SPI/I2C/Ethernet), logging/diagnostics, and interfaces to ROS/ROS2. Conduct real-robot testing, failure analysis, and system integration with mechanical, electrical, AI, and cloud teams to improve reliability and reproducibility for research data collection.

Responsible for designing data collection systems, developing teleoperation systems, creating automated model pipelines, and integrating VLA models onto robots.

Design and build robotic data collection systems, develop teleoperation systems, and integrate models onto humanoid robots while collaborating with multidisciplinary teams.

Interns will design data preprocessing pipelines, train VLA models using various learning techniques, improve model performance, and publish research results.

Design and maintain ML pipelines and distributed training clusters, optimize model performance, collaborate with researchers, and improve ML infrastructure.

This role involves designing scalable data collection systems for humanoid robots, developing teleoperation systems, and creating automated pipelines for model deployment.

Design and implement data pipelines, train VLA models, improve robustness through innovations, deploy models on robots, and publish research findings.

The Junior Research Scientist will design and implement data processing pipelines, train VLA models, and improve model efficiency, along with publishing research in top-tier conferences.

The Senior Research Scientist will design data pipelines, train VLA models, implement algorithms, evaluate performance, and publish research.

The role involves designing data collection systems, developing semi-autonomous teleoperation systems, and integrating VLA models onto physical robots.

Lead launch and operation of a membership community for large corporations: design membership structure, recruit and onboard enterprise members, run engagement initiatives and events, manage community tools, and track KPIs to drive growth and retention.

As a Robotics Engineer Intern, you'll design data collection systems for humanoid robots, develop control systems, and work on machine learning models while collaborating closely with a team on complex robotic systems.

The Robotics Engineer will design and build data collection systems for humanoid robots, develop teleoperation systems, automate model deployments, and integrate state-of-the-art robotic models. Collaboration with interdisciplinary teams is essential for transitioning prototypes to scalable engineering systems.

Lead and build AIRoA’s operational foundation: support board and committee operations, design governance and internal rules, manage budgets/contracts and back-office functions, coordinate member communications and events, and implement systems to scale secretariat operations.

Support internal and external communications, PR, event planning, HR/admin tasks, and cross‑division coordination. Rotate across divisions to enable organizational engagement and drive AI×robotics outreach.

Manage back-office operations including meeting coordination, minutes, event secretariat, contract and document management, office/assets management, payments and budgeting. Standardize workflows and support governance while collaborating across teams to build AIRoA's operational infrastructure.

Lead end-to-end engineering recruitment for AIRoA, hiring domestic and international engineers. Define requirements, manage sourcing, screening, offers, English interviews, and visa/relocation coordination. Build hiring processes, talent pipelines, and university/community relationships to support global R&D expansion.

Lead end-to-end recruitment for business roles (strategy, PR, HR, general affairs, internal IT) at AIRoA: headcount planning, direct sourcing, agency management, selection-process design and operation, offer design/closing, and alignment with project leaders to build teams that support robot data ecosystem and foundation-model initiatives.

Provide legal support for AIRoA projects and operations: draft and review contracts, design contract schemes, create regulations and IP/data handling rules, advise on NEDO/public contracts, and support corporate governance, compliance, and risk management for a general incorporated association.

Lead and operate the Information Systems Department to build and maintain internal IT infrastructure (network, storage, servers, virtualization, containers, security), provide helpdesk support, coordinate with vendors/subcontractors, produce network diagrams and NEDO reports, and ensure reliable development environments for a large national AI robotics project.
