About The Role:

As a Senior Lead Algorithms Engineer, you will be working on a myriad of challenges related to robot task and action planning. You will leverage techniques from machine learning, search, discrete and continuous optimization to solve hard sequential decision problems that require reasoning about the physical world and its dynamics. You will also stay abreast of the latest progress in reinforcement learning, task and motion planning, and other related fields in order to further develop Dexterity’s technology foundations.

Dexterity’s robotic solutions integrate data from a multitude of sensors, including RGB cameras, depth sensors, force-torque sensors, encoders, system telemetry and human input. To better inform the planning algorithms, you may work on sensor fusion and state estimation techniques to leverage this multimodal sensory data.

You will also work closely with the data platform, physics simulation, and robot operations teams to develop effective and efficient ways to improve the system’s internal world model.

Dexterity has an expanding set of algorithmic challenges as we deploy new robotic applications, including areas such as: Improving packing algorithms to build taller, denser, more stable structures with a wider variety of objects. Solving the logistics task of moving and sorting inventory throughout a warehouse. Finding optimal schedules for real-world, stochastic, non-linear robotics systems. …
