Ai2 Benefits Overview

The role involves developing and maintaining robotic control stacks, managing sim-to-real pipelines, and collaborating with researchers on robotic learning projects.

Own the real-time control stack for physical robots, including arms, hands, bimanual systems, and humanoids. Develop and tune torque-level and whole-body controllers, enable sim-to-real transfer, and lead robot setup, calibration, maintenance, and debugging. Design custom hardware such as end-effectors and test rigs, build teleoperation and monitoring tools, and collaborate with research and simulation teams. Contribute to open-source robotics software and publications.

Conduct AI research on open foundation models such as Olmo and Molmo. Interns define and lead research projects, train and release models, build open-source research software, collaborate with mentors and researchers, and publish scientific papers. The 12-week internship is conducted onsite in Seattle and is open to doctoral candidates and master's or undergraduate students with strong research backgrounds.
