About this job

We're seeking a Research Scientist to train the policies that turn a world model into a robot that acts. You will own vision-language-action (VLA) and world-action models (WAM) end to end, starting, including data, backbone, action representation, training runs, and the evaluation that tells us whether a policy is genuinely competent or merely lucky. A world model that understands geometry and physics still doesn't act on its own; the policy is what closes that gap. This is a senior, hands-on research role for someone who has already trained manipulation policies that worked, and who can say precisely why the ones that didn't failed.

This is a short summary.
