Postdoctoral Appointee - Humanoid and dexterous robotics development

Argonne National Laboratory • Lemont, IL • 6h ago

This is an opportunity for a knowledgeable and creative individual to be part of a team developing advanced humanoid and dexterous robotic capabilities for scientific use-cases. Recent progress has solidified artificial intelligence (AI) as a key science accelerator, especially in concert with automated techniques for sample creation, movement, and evaluation. However, the flexibility and intelligence of these systems are insufficient to cover the diversity of human-driven experimental activities. The development of multi-appendage, dexterous robots with embodied intelligence is a key to closing this gap.

The successful candidate will work in the Data Science and Learning division of the Computing, Environment, and Life Sciences directorate of Argonne National Laboratories. Primary responsibilities will be the development of AI models for robotic control and the demonstration of these methods via simulation and experiment. Beyond the listed projects, the candidate may contribute to other large-team scientific projects in artificial intelligence, materials engineering, chemistry, and beyond at Argonne National Laboratory.

Position Requirements

Recently completed PhD within the last 0-5 years in computer science, mechanical engineering, artificial intelligence, or related engineering disciplines

Experience with state of the art AI methods for robotics

Experience with robotics research strongly preferred

Experience in deep learning including data collection, architecture development, model training, and validation

Interest in software development, with particular emphasis on the Python programming language and contributions to open-source scientific software

Scientific productivity, as demonstrated by publications and conference presentations

Effective oral and written communication skills

Ability to model Argonne's core values of impact, safety, integrity, respect and teamwork.
