Perform fundamental and applied research to push the scientific and technological frontiers of embodied artificial intelligence 2. Invent/improve novel data-driven paradigms for robotics, leveraging a variety of modalities (images, video, text, audio, tactile, etc) 3. Investigate paradigms that can deliver a spectrum of embodied behaviors - from simulated characters to real robots, and from short-horizon, low-level to long-horizon, high-level intelligence 4. Develop algorithms based on state-of-the-art machine learning and neural network methodologies 5. Build and benchmark new capabilities needed for the next generation of AI 6. Conduct research towards long-term research goals while identifying intermediate milestones 7. Execute on novel research based on long-term objectives of the organization **Minimum Qualifications:** Minimum Qualifications: 8. Experience with any of the following research areas: robotics, motion planning, embodied AI, human-robot interaction, sim-to-real transfer, learning from demonstration, reinforcement learning, dexterous manipulation, digital agents, vision language models, computer vision, egocentric perception, and/or LLMs 9. Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment **Preferred Qualifications:** Preferred Qualifications: 10. Experience with deep learning frameworks (such as PyTorch, TensorFlow) and Python 11. Demonstrated research and software engineering experience via an internship, work experience, coding competitions, or widely used contributions in open source repositories (e.g. GitHub) 12. Experience building systems based on machine learning and/or deep learning methods 13. Experience in relevant robotics-related research areas, such as: robot learning, reinforcement learning, imitation learning, action-conditioned world models, task and motion planning, sim-to-real transfer, robotic control, manipulation, navigation, or generally embodied AI 14. Experience working and communicating cross-functionally in a team environment 15. Experience with manipulating and analyzing complex, large-scale, high-dimensionality data from varying sources 16. Experience with robotics frameworks like ROS, along with experience working with robot simulations and real-world hardware **Public Compensation:** $58.65/hour to $143,000/year + benefits **Industry:** Internet **Equal Opportunity:** Meta is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer.
