What is the difference between Robot Control vs Robot Programmer?

AspectRobot ControlRobot Programmer
Required CredentialsTechnical certifications, associate degrees in robotics or automationSimilar certifications, programming courses, and technical training
Work EnvironmentManufacturing plants, automation facilities, industrial settingsDesign labs, manufacturing floors, software development environments
Employer & Industry UsageManufacturers, automation companies, industrial facilitiesRobotics firms, manufacturing companies, automation service providers
Common Search & Comparison IntentUnderstanding operational roles in roboticsFocus on programming and software development for robots

Robot Control involves managing and operating robotic systems on the factory floor, ensuring they perform tasks correctly. Robot Programmers focus on writing and developing the software that enables robots to function. While both roles require technical skills and industry knowledge, Robot Control emphasizes operational oversight, whereas Robot Programmers concentrate on programming and software development.

AI Training Infrastructure Engineer - Humanoid Whole Body Control

Figure

San Jose, CA • On-site

$126K - $165K/yr

Full-time

Re-posted 19 days ago

Job description

Job Summary:
Figure is an AI Robotics company focused on creating autonomous humanoid robots with human-level intelligence. They are seeking an engineer to manage the training and deployment infrastructure for their RL-based whole-body control systems, which is crucial for the efficient iteration and deployment of new capabilities in their robots.
Responsibilities:
• Own and scale the infrastructure used to train whole-body control policies (simulation, data pipelines, orchestration, visualizations)
• Design systems that are fast, reliable, and highly configurable for our controls engineers
• Ensure high cluster utilization and minimal downtime—unblocking the team and accelerating iteration cycles
• Evaluate and integrate physics engines, simulation environments, and parameterizations to balance realism and training speed
• Optimize hyperparameters and infrastructure to maximize training speed and efficiency and final model performance
• Build robust tooling to take policies from training → validation → deployment on hardware
Qualifications:
Required:
• Strong software engineering fundamentals with production experience in Python and PyTorch
• Experience building or scaling training infrastructure for robotics, control systems, or large-scale ML workloads
• Familiarity with physics simulation tools such as NVIDIA PhysX, MuJoCo, Warp, or PyBullet
• Working knowledge of dynamics, controls, and robotics systems
• Experience with reinforcement learning, imitation learning, or policy distillation
• Strong ownership mindset—you own systems that your teammates rely on every day
• Experience modeling contact interactions and photorealistic simulation environments for complex manipulation tasks
Preferred:
• Experience with humanoid or legged robot control
• Background in distributed systems, job schedulers, or cluster management
• Experience deploying ML models or control policies to real-world systems
Company:
Figure is an AI robotics company that develops autonomous general-purpose humanoid robots. Founded in 2022, the company is headquartered in San Jose, USA, with a team of 201-500 employees. The company is currently Growth Stage.
