# Technical Lead - AI Manipulation and Simulation \(human\) - Company: [Neura Robotics Gmbh]() - Location: Munich - Team: AI - Employment type: Full Time - Posted: June 16, 2026 ## Job description # **Your mission & challenges** * **Multimodal Learning Architecture:** You design and build systems that fuse camera, depth, tactile, IMU, language, and robot-state inputs into executable robot actions. You define how these modalities combine and translate into policies that run on our dexterous hands. * **Simulation Infrastructure & Data Pipelines:** You build and maintain GPU-accelerated simulation environments and the data pipelines that make policy training scalable. * **Sim-to-Real Transfer:** You lead the engineering work that closes the gap between simulation and physical hardware. * **Team Leadership & Engineering Direction:** You translate research problems into concrete milestones, guide engineers, and work across ML, robotics, and hardware teams to ship learning systems that run on physical robots. # **What we can look forward to:** * 6 or more years of experience in computer science or a related engineering field, with meaningful time delivering AI systems on physical robotic hardware * Hands-on experience leading or co-leading the design of multimodal manipulation systems combining vision, language, tactile, and proprioceptive inputs * Proven track record building simulation infrastructure (Isaac Lab and Isaac Sim, or MuJoCo) for reinforcement learning and sim-to-real transfer * Deep practical knowledge of imitation learning (including diffusion policies), deep RL, and hybrid learning approaches on real robot hardware * Experience with data pipelines for heterogeneous, high-frequency sensor data: teleoperation, tactile, vision, depth, and robot state * Strong Python and C++, with experience in ROS2 and embedded or real-time systems * Ability to translate ambiguous research problems into concrete engineering milestones and to grow junior engineers **Nice to have:** * Experience with high-DOF, tendon-driven, or tactile-heavy dexterous hands * Familiarity with VLA or vision-language-action architectures and large-scale pre-training workflows * Contributions to the robotics or AI research community (ICRA, IROS, CoRL, NeurIPS) ## Apply [Apply on Neura Robotics Gmbh]() Canonical job page:
