💼 About This Role
You'll develop computational theories of scientific reasoning for program synthesis and neuro-symbolic methods in embodied AI. You'll advance how agents learn causal models from interaction and bridge high-level reasoning with low-level control.
🎯 What You'll Do
- Develop computational theories for program synthesis and neuro-symbolic methods.
- Design and implement novel algorithms for embodied AI systems.
- Collaborate across specializations to integrate world modeling with planning.
- Validate research on physical robots and address sim-to-real challenges.
📋 Requirements
- Publications at top venues like NeurIPS, ICML, or POPL.
- Deep expertise in program synthesis and neuro-symbolic methods.
- Strong foundations in probability theory, optimization, and linear algebra.
- Experience with combining neural networks with symbolic reasoning.
✨ Nice to Have
- PhD in robotics, machine learning, or related field.
- Experience at leading robotics or AI labs.
- Track record of algorithms deployed on physical robots.
