VLA Researcher (m/f/d)

Overview

We are looking for a world‑class VLA Researcher to join our R&D hub in the Zurich area. In this role, you will develop Vision‑Language‑Action (VLA) models that enable robots to understand and interact with the world with unprecedented generalization, bridging the gap between large‑scale foundation models and real‑world robotic execution.

Your Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and scale VLA models and foundation architectures for robotic manipulation and navigation.
• Develop strategies for multi‑modal data collection, synthetic data generation, and efficient fine‑tuning of large‑scale models.
• Optimize model inference for real‑time robotic applications without compromising reasoning capabilities.
• Contribute to the global research community by publishing high‑impact papers at top‑tier conferences (NeurIPS, CVPR, ICRA, CoRL, etc.).
• Work closely with the Core Robotics and Hardware teams to integrate AI...
