Role

Who you are

Getting general-purpose robots to work in the home is just about the hardest problem one can work on. We are looking for people with the courage to tackle unsolved technical challenges with an intense work ethic
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent. We're mostly looking for graduate-level students in ML and Robotics programs, but are willing to consider exceptional people
Proficiency working with large codebases in Python, including testing
Ability to rapidly prototype ideas in code in an independent manner
Experience with Deep Learning Frameworks (Pytorch, TF, JAX, etc.)

Desirable

Fast thinker and learner
Highly independent code contributor
Capable of performing world-class machine learning research but willing to work on infra and operational scaling of the fleet when needed
Good judgement in scoping research problems and infrastructure
Robotics and ROS experience
Has built large programming projects on their own for fun (e.g. open source projects)
Systems programming
Training large-scale ML models such as visual foundation models, large language models, pixel-level generative models
Published robotics research in top ML conferences (CVPR, ICML, ICLR, etc.)

What the job involves

This is a fixed-term role of 3-6 months
As we scale from research and development to full-scale manufacturing, we are looking for an AI resident
The AI residency role is a fixed-term role involves developing full-stack infrastructure for simulation, data management, and learning within the AI team
Unlike a typical internship, AI Residents tackle projects with the same scope and difficulty as those worked on by full-time employees
Bring cutting edge ideas from the AI & Robotics research community into our products and scale them up with the largest humanoid robot dataset ever collected
Build evals that benchmark open-source models on tasks useful to 1X
Build the “data engine” (frontend UI and backend) to review logs, clean, and label data
Ship new capabilities to robots deployed in customer sites

Application process

Target start date: immediately

Our take

The field of robotics has advanced massively in the last few years, to the point where androids no longer belong to the realm of science fiction. 1X, formerly known as Halodi Robotics, is developing androids capable of human-like movement and behaviour, to employ in workplaces across the globe.

1X's flagship model, EVE, boasts front and rear optics, wheeled navigation and gripper-hands. The android is strong enough to move shipments but gentle enough to handle fragile items, making it ideal for work in retail storerooms or distribution centers. In addition, it is able to open doors and take elevators, and its AI mind grants it heightened navigation abilities, meaning it is simple to fit into workplaces without making large adjustments.

With significant funding at its back, the company is now looking to scale up its manufacture of EVE androids, as well as accelerate the production of its second-gen bipedal android model NEO which is described as an "intelligent android assistant". Though the adoption of working androids is still in its early stages, 1X has certainly made a splash in the space and may well be one to watch as it takes its place in shaping the future of robotics.
