Responsibilities- Select and maintain a "gold standard" set of robot hardware, benchmark the model's zero-shot performance on these platforms to understand capabilities and limitations before they reach partners.
- Build a library of out-of-the-box demo tasks (e.g., visual navigation, pick-and-place, semantic reasoning) that showcase the model's power in real-world scenarios.
- Serve as the primary technical point-of-contact for trusted testers (TT), troubleshoot unique hardware-software integration issues and feed those insights back into the core research team.
- Travel to partner sites up to 25% of the time.
