OverviewThis role focuses on perception as a system-level capability, including how sensing, representation, and understanding integrate into full robotic stacks. You will design perception pipelines that operate efficiently under real-world constraints and connect seamlessly with planning, reasoning, and control layers across heterogeneous compute systems.
Responsibilities- Develop perception systems (SLAM, sensor fusion, semantic mapping)
- Design multi-modal sensing pipelines and environment representations
- Integrate perception with planning, reasoning, and control systems
- Evaluate performance under real-world constraints (latency, bandwidth, robustness)
- Contribute to system-level integration and demonstrations
- Translate perception workloads into platform-level requirements
Required Skills and Experience- Strong background in robotics perception (SLAM, vision, sensor fusion)
- Experience with real-world robotic systems or datasets
- Proficiency in C++ and/or Python
- Familiarity with modern perception and mapping techniques
- Publications in top-tier venues
"Nice To Have" Skills and Experience- Experience with multi-modal learning (vision, lidar, tactile)
- Familiarity with edge deployment and optimization
- Experience integrating perception with full robot stacks
In ReturnYou will define how robots perceive and represent the world as part of integrated intelligence systems-shaping both Arm's research direction and the architectures that will power robots at global scale.
