Co-Founder — AI Robotics Research Scientist
About Us
We are building a full-stack robotics company — we don't just train robots, we train them and deploy them into the real world.
Our platform uses AI-powered simulation to train robots, then dispatches those robots to perform real
We are actively preparing to raise our pre-seed round and looking for an AI Robotics Research Scientist to join as a co-founder and shape the science behind what we build.
The Opportunity
We are looking for an AI Robotics Research Scientist who will become one of our technical co-founders. You will own the research and scientific direction of the company — from simulation and model training all the way to real-world robot deployment.
This is not a job. This is co-ownership. You will have a seat at the founding table, a voice in company direction, and meaningful equity.
This is an equity-only position while we raise. No salary until funded.
What You Will Own
Research & Science
• Lead the science behind Vision-Language-Action (VLA) model training
• Design sim-to-real transfer strategies that actually work on physical robots
• Develop LLM-driven scene generation pipelines for automated training environments
• Research and implement robot learning algorithms — imitation learning, RL, behavior cloning
• Validate trained models on real deployed robots in real environments
Robot Deployment
• Bridge the gap between simulation training and physical robot operation
• Develop deployment frameworks for dispatching trained robots to real-world tasks
• Build robust perception and manipulation pipelines for deployed robots
• Iterate on real-world performance and feed learnings back into training
Company Building
• Co-author the technical vision for investors and customers
• Help shape the product roadmap from a research perspective
• Contribute to fundraising conversations — tell our scientific story
• Hire and mentor future research team members as we grow
What We Are Looking ForMust Have
• ✅ Deep expertise in robot learning — imitation learning, RL, or policy learning
• ✅ Hands-on experience taking models from simulation to real hardware
• ✅ Strong Python and PyTorch skills
• ✅ Experience with robotics simulators (MuJoCo, Habitat, Genesis, PyBullet, Isaac)
• ✅ Experience working with real physical robots
• ✅ PhD or equivalent research experience in robotics, AI, or computer vision
• ✅ Entrepreneurial mindset — you want to build and own, not just research
• ✅ Experience with VLA or foundation models
Nice to Have
• ⭐ Familiarity with LLM-based code or scene generation
• ⭐ Knowledge of robot arm design and hardware (motor selection, kinematics)
• ⭐ Experience with multi-camera data collection and teleoperation
• ⭐ Published research in robotics or embodied AI
• ⭐ Prior startup or research lab experience
What We Offer
• Significant co-founder equity — you are building this with us
• Own the science — this is your research direction to lead
• Fully remote — work from anywhere
• Pre-seed fundraising in progress — salary structured upon funding
• Real impact — your research ships to real robots doing real work
We are pre-seed and pre-revenue. We are building fast, fundraising actively, and looking for someone who is motivated by equity, mission, and the chance to do something real.
You will not just publish papers about robots. Your work will be deployed on physical robots operating in the real world.
If that excites you, we should talk.
