Your role in the team

  • You will become part of our AI Data Operations team and own the integration layer that connects robots, sensors, and training pipelines inside our NeuraGym environment.
  • You will be responsible for building the sensor network infrastructure, communication protocols, and data synchronization and fusion mechanisms that turn raw multi-modal robot data into reliable, training-ready streams for embodied AI.
  • Robot & Sensor Integration: End-to-end integration of humanoid and collaborative robots as well as a wide range of sensors into the Gym - from cabling and mounting concepts to driver-level bring-up, calibration, and runtime health monitoring.
  • Sensor Network Infrastructure: Design and operation of high-throughput sensor network topologies based on VLAN segmentation, QoS policies, and deterministic uplink behavior for time-critical robot data.
  • Data Synchronization & Time Alignment: Development of precise time synchronization (PTP/NTP, hardware trigger lines) and cross-modal alignment strategies to guarantee temporally consistent multi-sensor episodes suitable for model training and evaluation.
  • Sensor Fusion: Design and integration of sensor fusion components that combine visual, inertial, and proprioceptive streams into coherent scene and robot state representations - as a foundation for downstream perception, annotation, and policy learning.
  • Diagnostics & Observability: Development of diagnostic tools, dashboards, and health checks for sensor links, time sync quality, packet loss, and stream integrity - enabling fast triage during recording sessions and long-term reliability tracking.
  • Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Work closely with AI, perception, robotics, and IT infrastructure teams to define integration requirements, support QA and annotation workflows, contribute to documentation, and support CI/CD for infrastructure and sensor components.

Our expectations of you

Education

  • Excellent Master's, or PhD degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, or a related field.

Qualifications

  • Strong programming skills in Python and modern C++.
  • Solid background in network engineering.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills.
