What is a machine learning robotics?

A Machine Learning Robotics job involves developing algorithms that enable robots to learn from data and improve their performance over time. Professionals in this field work on applications such as autonomous navigation, robotic perception, and human-robot interaction. They use techniques like deep learning, reinforcement learning, and computer vision to enhance a robot's ability to understand and interact with its environment. This role typically requires expertise in machine learning, robotics, and software development, along with strong problem-solving skills.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in machine learning robotics?

To excel in Machine Learning Robotics, a strong background in computer science, robotics, and machine learning algorithms, often supported by a relevant degree (such as in engineering or computer science), is essential. Familiarity with programming languages like Python or C++, frameworks such as TensorFlow or ROS (Robot Operating System), and experience with simulation tools are highly valuable, and certifications in AI or robotics can further enhance employability. Strong problem-solving skills, effective communication, and the ability to work collaboratively in cross-disciplinary teams help professionals stand out. These capabilities are crucial for designing, developing, and refining intelligent robotic systems that perform reliably in real-world environments.

What are some common challenges faced by professionals working in machine learning robotics?

Professionals in Machine Learning Robotics often encounter challenges like integrating machine learning models with robotic hardware, ensuring reliable performance in unpredictable real-world settings, and managing computational limitations on embedded systems. Addressing these challenges usually requires creative problem-solving and close collaboration with hardware engineers, software developers, and data scientists. You may also need to continuously refine models and testing processes based on real-time feedback and evolving project goals. This dynamic environment makes the work both demanding and highly rewarding for those eager to push the boundaries of automation and intelligent systems.

Job description

Job Title: Robotics Machine Learning Engineer
Department: Machine Learning
Reports To: Head of Machine Learning
Employment Type: Full-Time
Location: Pensacola, FL or Houston, TX
Travel: 10%
Who We Are
Persona AI is building humanoid robots for the most demanding environments in heavy industry - shipyards, steel mills, fabrication facilities, and offshore platforms - performing welding, grinding, maintenance, inspection, and material-handling work that is dangerous, physically demanding, and increasingly difficult to staff.
We are backed by leading strategic and financial investors and engaged with global industrial leaders across Korea, Japan, the United States, and Singapore. Korea is the center of gravity for our early commercial strategy, anchored by relationships with the world's leading shipbuilders and steelmakers. Our work spans both the robot platform itself and the systems, partners, and playbooks required to deploy it at scale.
Why Join Persona AI?
  • We offer competitive compensation, a performance-based bonus, 99% employer covered medical benefits, early-stage equity, competitive PTO, and a company-wide paid winter break between December 24th and January 2nd.
  • You'll shape technology that's redefining the possibilities of robotics and human interaction.
  • Work alongside passionate teammates who value creativity, and continuous learning.

About the Role
We're looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to drive our machine learning strategy. We are primarily interested in candidates who have developed and released products to market, but can be flexible depending on aptitude and energy.
As one of the inaugural Machine Learning Engineers at Persona, you will have an incredible opportunity to get in at the beginning to shape the design and development of Persona's humanoid robot.
What You Will Be Doing
  • Collaborate on the design and development of the Persona ML software stack and support its application in manipulation, navigation, locomotion, and perception.
  • Work with the ML team to craft and execute on a comprehensive plan for the development of machine learning models, keeping up to date with the state of the art in research and development.
  • Work with the team to develop, test, and deploy software, machine learning pipelines, and data collection pipelines.
  • Monitor and evaluate the performance of models in the real world.
  • Collaborate with Universities and other companies.
  • Collaborate in attracting, nurturing and growing the machine learning and autonomy teams.

What We Are Looking For:
  • Courage and grit to tackle some of the hardest problems in embodied AI.
  • Enthusiasm for working collaboratively in a high paced team environment.
  • 3+ years of experience in machine learning applied to robotics.
  • Experience with deep learning frameworks (Pytorch, JAX, TensorFlow, etc.)
  • Experience with cloud computing to develop models, store data, etc. (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Strong understanding of the state of the art research in robot learning (behavior cloning for manipulation, reinforcement learning for locomotion, world models, etc.).
  • Understanding of the challenges of deploying neural network models in the real world.
  • Experienced in deploying both traditional and learning based approaches for robotics.
  • Capable of writing high quality software.
  • Thrive in fast paced and ambiguous environments.
  • Strong first principles thinker.

Bonus Skills:
  • An advanced degree (Masters or PhD) in computer science, robotics, machine learning, or another related field.
  • Published papers at top ML/Robotics conferences (ICML, ICRA, CoRL, RSS, NeurIPS).
  • Have deployed robots, collected large amounts of data, and trained large neural networks that work in production environments.
