Senior Machine Learning Engineer (m/f/d) Computer Vision for Robotics

About this role

The AI Teams at Agile Robots are looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer (m/f/d) Computer Vision for Robotics , who will design and train deep-learning models for visual servoing in precision robot manipulation. Your model's output steers the robot as it moves, so inference latency and sub-millimetre accuracy both decide whether the task succeeds. Responsibilities Method Development: Develop deep-learning methods for visual servoing and robotic vision, adapting and combining existing methods for new tasks where that requires significant changes.

Model Training: Design, train, fine-tune, and evaluate models in PyTorch, including adapting pretrained and foundation models to real robot tasks. Perception Methods: Develop 2D and 3D perception for pose estimation, depth, tracking, and geometric understanding, combining learned, classical, and optimization-based methods where each fits. Closed-Loop Integration: Integrate learned models into closed-loop robot control for high-precision manipulation.

Robot Evaluation: Evaluate models on real robots and precision manipulation tasks, analyse failure cases, and improve robustness and generalization. Real-Time Deployment: Build real-time inference pipelines in C++ and Python and optimize models with ONNX, TensorRT, and CUDA to meet the timing of the control loop. Essential Skills Background: Master's degree or PhD in computer science, robotics, electrical engineering, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of research and industry experience, with three or more years in machine learning, computer vision, or robotics.

ML Pipeline: Hands-on experience designing, training, and tuning deep-learning models end to end in PyTorch. Method Development: Experience adapting, combining, or extending existing machine learning or vision methods for a new task, with changes that required understanding how those methods work internally. Computer Vision: Solid understanding of computer vision and 2D/3D geometry. Programming: Software development in Python, with working knowledge of C++.
