Senior Specialist in Embodied AI

Location: Munich, Germany (Hybrid) Department: Advanced R&D Experience Level: Senior / Lead (5+ years) Key Tech Stack: PyTorch, ROS 2, C++, Python, Isaac Sim / MuJoCo Language: German (Fluent)

The Opportunity We are collaborating with a stealth-mode innovator backed by global technology leaders, currently building an elite core team in Munich. This organization operates at the intersection of deep learning and physical actuation, developing next-generation foundation models specifically optimized for complex, multi-modal physical interactions.

Looking to advance your Development & Programming career with relocation support? Explore Development & Programming Jobs with Relocation Packages that include comprehensive packages to help you move and settle in your new role. By decoupling from rigid legacy architectures, the team focuses purely on generalizable, adaptive intelligence deployed onto state-of-the-art kinematically diverse robotic systems. This role offers an unprecedented opportunity to influence the architectural landscape of physical AI from the ground up in continental Europe's primary deep-tech hub.

Role & Responsibilities As a Senior Specialist in Embodied AI, you will lead the bridge between advanced machine learning constructs and real-world physical deployment. Your core focus will be expanding behavioural generalization across multi-modal architectures.

• Foundation Model Engineering: Design, train, and fine-tune Vision-Language-Action (VLA) and deep transformer-based models capable of zero-shot generalization to novel tasks and physical environments.
• Sim-to-Real Transferability: Optimize physical and visual simulation frameworks (e.g., Isaac Sim, MuJoCo) to dramatically minimize the sim-to-real gap, deploying learned physical behaviours seamlessly onto hardware.
• Robot Learning Pipelines: Develop scalable infrastructure for imitation learning, behaviour cloning, and reinforcement learning (RL) using extensive, diverse real-world datasets.
• Algorithm Deployment: Optimize large-scale deep learning models for real-time inference on edge compute structures, ensuring latency constraint boundaries are strictly met.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work intimately with deep-learning engineers, mechatronics designers, and perception teams to co-design hardware-software requirements for agility, manipulation, and perception.

Profile & Qualifications We are looking for an analytical, execution-oriented engineer who thrives in ambiguity and values tangible, physical deployment over theoretical benchmarks alone.

• Education: Master’s degree or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Machine Learning, Cognitive Systems, or a closely related quantitative field.
• Core Technical Expertise: Strong foundation in deep neural networks, transformers, and continuous control algorithms. Proven experience with robotic kinematics, manipulation, or dynamic locomotion is highly desirable.
• Programming Excellence: Exceptional production-level coding skills in Python and modern C++ (17/20), along with standard frameworks like PyTorch or JAX.
• Robotics Ecosystems: Deep structural familiarity with ROS 2 (Robot Operating System) and standard simulation tools. Interested in relocating to Germany? Check out our comprehensive Relocation Jobs in Germany page with detailed relocation packages and benefits.
• Mindset: A passionate builder who wants to see their algorithms manifest in physical world manipulation and movement, comfortable working in rapid sprint cycles.

What We Offer

• Highly competitive compensation package including equity/virtual share options tailored to early-stage growth.
• Direct access to cutting-edge, proprietary robotic hardware and massive localized compute clusters.
• A vibrant office location in the heart of Munich with flexible hybrid arrangements.
• Relocation assistance to Germany for international candidates, alongside extensive visa support.
• An intellectually rigorous environment consisting of international experts from top academic institutions and elite global tech labs.
