The Role
Lead reinforcement learning and behavior cloning development for humanoid robots, improving locomotion, loco-manipulation, autonomy, and interaction. Develop and deploy policies across simulation and real hardware, drive sim-to-real transfer, integrate algorithms with controls, perception, sensors, and hardware, and validate performance through experiments. The role requires advanced robotics expertise, strong programming skills, experience with reinforcement learning frameworks and robotic platforms, and familiarity with humanoid dynamics and control theory.

Your mission & challenges

Together, we are taking the step into a new era of cognitive robots:

As an Expert in Reinforcement Learning and Behavior Cloning for Humanoid Robots at NEURA Robotics, you will lead the development and implementation of cutting-edge algorithms and systems. You will collaborate closely with our robotics engineering team to enhance the autonomy, adaptability, and interaction capabilities of our humanoid robots. This includes:

  • Improve the learning pipeline for robust locomotion and loco-manipulation on the 4NE1 humanoid, from policy training to validated on-robot deployment

  • Explore and adapt cutting-edge methods (behavior foundation models, general motion tracking, teleoperation) and ship to customers and other teams.

  • Drive sim-to-real transfer (domain randomization, actuator modeling, physics alignment) to deploy policies from simulation onto real hardware with minimal performance gap.

  • Integrate reinforcement learning and behavior cloning approaches to enable robots to learn from both simulated and real-world interactions.

  • Collaborate with controls, hardware, and perception teams to ensure seamless integration of algorithms with robot hardware and sensors.

  • Conduct experiments and simulations to evaluate and validate algorithmic performance in various scenarios.

What we can look forward to
  • Master’s or Ph.D. in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field

  • Proficiency in programming languages like Python, C++ with hands-on experience in robotics frameworks (e.g., ROS2) and robotic hardware platforms

  • Experience in developing and deploying reinforcement learning algorithms and behavior cloning techniques for robotic systems, with a strong grasp of humanoid robot dynamics, control theory, and sensor integration.

  • Hands-on experience with Isaac Lab / Isaac Sim and/or MuJoCo, and PyTorch.

  • Strong analytical skills and a proven ability to deliver innovative solutions in robotics, ideally including a track record of publications or contributions to conferences and journals

  • Your communication skills make you shine

  • You have a perfect command of the English language and, best of all, speak German well
