About this job

We are looking for a State Estimation Engineer to own the architecture, algorithm development, and calibration workflows for a next-generation data collection system. This system powers two core capabilities: low-latency real-time teleoperation of our humanoid robots and ultra-high-precision offline trajectory reconstruction for data collection and policy training. You will build and deploy dual-tier estimation pipelines and user-onboarding calibration routines that fuse heterogeneous sensor modalities to track full-body human kinematics and floating-base motion across dynamic tasks. Key Responsibilities: Design and implement dual-tier state estimation algorithms in modern C++: low-latency, real-time filters for streaming teleoperation and batch optimization/smoothing routines for…
