Job Description

Our lab sits at the intersection of world models, video generation, and robotics, building systems that represent complex environments, reason about objects and dynamics, and translate high-level AI intentions into smooth, efficient, safe, and responsive actions across a variety of robotic embodiments.

What You’ll Do:

  • Lead the design and execution of our AI’s robotics research agenda

  • Recruit, mentor, and manage a small team of research scientists and engineers in our London lab

  • Collaborate with the world model and simulation teams to develop state-of-the-art training platforms for robotics

  • Guide the creation of persistent 3D/4D scene representations and advanced embodied AI methodologies

  • Drive research efforts in scene understanding, sim-to-real transfer, and advanced planning

  • Foster partnerships with leading ML researchers, hardware specialists, and external collaborators

  • Help establish the lab's technical culture and external reputation

Areas of Interest:
We are especially interested in candidates excited to work on:

  • World models for embodied systems

  • 3D/4D generative models

  • Scene reconstruction and understanding

  • Embodied AI

  • Object-level and semantic SLAM

  • Multimodal AI

What We’re Looking For:

  • Strong background in robotics, computer vision, or related areas

  • Experience leading or managing small technical or research teams

  • Hands-on expertise with 3D perception, scene representations, world models, or simulation

  • Excellent programming skills (Python, C++, or similar)

  • Entrepreneurial spirit and excitement about building in a startup or early-stage lab environment

  • Ability to work effectively across machine learning, perception, and robotics disciplines

  • Outstanding communication and team-building skills
