Cyber-Physical AI and Reasoning (Engineer / Researcher)

The Cyber-Physical AI and Reasoning group at Bosch Research Pittsburgh develops intelligent systems that tightly integrate learning, reasoning, perception, and physical interaction. Our mission is to build safe, robust, and adaptive cyber-physical systems that operate reliably in real-world environments-spanning robotics, automation, manufacturing, and intelligent devices.

We focus on systems that combine data-driven learning with structured models, physical constraints, and embedded intelligence, enabling machines to sense, decide, and act across diverse scenarios while continuously improving over time, including through interaction with humans.

Core Research & Development Areas

Our work spans a broad range of Cyber-Physical AI topics, including but not limited to:

• Embodied and Cyber-Physical AI
  • Robot learning and control in physical environments
  • Dexterous manipulation and automation for manufacturing
  • Human-machine interaction and shared autonomy
• Hybrid and Model-Based AI
  • Combining learning-based models with physics-based, symbolic, or optimization-based components 
  • World models, state estimation, and system identification
  • Safety-aware and constraint-driven learning and control
• Multimodal & Foundation Models
  • Vision-Language(-Action) models for perception, planning, and control
  • Representation learning across modalities (vision, language, proprioception, signals)
  • Cross-domain and cross-embodiment generalization
• Cyber-Physical Systems & Embedded Intelligence
  • Embedded ML and edge AI for real-time systems
  • Integration of learning algorithms with sensors, actuators, and control stacks
  • Sim-to-real transfer and deployment on physical platforms
• Engineering & Prototyping
  • System prototyping
  • Data collection pipelines, simulation environments, and benchmarking frameworks
  • Deployment of AI systems to industrial settings

• Developing experimental pipelines (simulation, real-world testing, data collection)
• Analyzing system performance, robustness, safety, and failure modes
• Collaborating with interdisciplinary teams spanning AI, robotics, and engineering
• Contributing to:
  • Research publications and technical reports
  • Industrial patents and technology transfer
  • Prototypes deployed in labs or production environments
