About the Role
We’re looking for an Senior/Staff AI Algorithms Engineer with deep foundations in machine learning, reinforcement learning, and optimization—and a strong drive to apply those skills to novel, high-impact problems in robotics. You will leverage techniques from machine learning, reinforcement learning, search, and 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 enhance Dexterity’s technology foundations in Physical AI
You’ll be part of a team working across simulation, real robots, and multimodal sensor streams, applying first-principles thinking to unlock product capabilities where off-the-shelf ML solutions fall short. If you have strong research instincts but are excited to build things that are used in the real world, this role offers the chance to turn deep technical ideas into systems deployed at scale.
