Senior Robotic Learning Engineer (m/f/d)

About this role

The AI Teams at Agile Robots are looking for a Senior Robotic Learning Engineer (m/f/d) , who will architect the full pipeline that turns raw robot and human data into deployed foundation models, from collection through post-training to on-robot deployment. Your Responsibilities System Architecture: Own how collection, generation, augmentation, annotation, valuation, and evaluation fit together as one coherent data-to-model pipeline, and prioritize engineering investment where it most improves model performance.

Model Evaluation & Deployment: Integrate post-training and evaluation frameworks, in simulation and on real hardware, and own the path to reliable, automatic deployment on robotic platforms. Data Valuation & Curation: Develop methods and metrics to assess data quality and value — diversity, coverage, redundancy, task relevance — and use them to guide what gets collected, kept, or discarded. Data Generation: Build synthetic and simulation-based data generation pipelines, including real-to-sim-to-real transfer, procedural task and scene generation, and generative models, to scale training data beyond physical collection alone.

Data Collection: Design scalable systems for collecting both robot-generated data (teleoperation, autonomous rollouts, scripted policies) and human data (egocentric video, demonstrations) to train imitation learning and VLA models. Cross-Team Collaboration: Partner with research scientists, robotics engineers, and infrastructure teams to translate model and research needs into production data and evaluation systems. Essential Skills Background: Master's degree or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Machine Learning, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of formal training and professional experience.

Professional Experience: 5+ years in robotics, autonomous driving, machine learning, or data engineering, with demonstrated ownership of systems spanning multiple pipeline stages, not a single component. Robot Learning: Hands-on experience with imitation learning, Vision-Language-Action models, robot foundation models, reinforcement learning, or other learning-based approaches to robotics. Programming: Software engineering proficiency in Python sufficient to build production-grade, reliable systems rather than research prototypes; familiarity with C++ is a plus.
