About AIRoA

The AI Robot Association (AIRoA) is launching a groundbreaking initiative: collecting one million hours of humanoid robot operation data with hundreds of robots, and leveraging it to train the world’s most powerful Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models.

What makes AIRoA unique is not only the unprecedented scale of real-world data and humanoid platforms, but also our commitment to making everything open and accessible. We are building a shared “robot data ecosystem” where datasets, trained models, and benchmarks are available to everyone. Researchers around the world will be able to evaluate their models on standardized humanoid robots through our open evaluation platform.

Job Description

As a Robotics Engineer Intern, you will:

  • Contribute to the design and implementation of scalable data collection systems across fleets of humanoid and mobile robots
  • Develop and evaluate low-latency teleoperation and control systems deployed on physical robotic platforms
  • Build and improve automated pipelines for deploying and evaluating machine learning models in both simulation and real-world environments
  • Work closely with the Vision-Language-Action (VLA) team to integrate state-of-the-art embodied AI models onto real robots
  • Debug and optimize complex robotic systems spanning perception, control, and hardware-software integration
  • Take ownership of technically challenging components under the guidance of senior engineers

This role involves working with high-DOF robotic systems and large-scale infrastructure. The problems are open-ended, systems-level, and technically demanding.

AIRoAについて

AI Robot Association(AIRoA)は、画期的な取り組みを開始します。数百台のヒューマノイドロボットを用いて、ヒューマノイドロボットの操作データを100万時間分収集し、それを活用してVision-Language-Action(VLA)モデルを学習させます。

私たちの独自性は、実世界データとヒューマノイドプラットフォームの前例のない規模だけではなく、あらゆるものをオープンでアクセス可能にするというコミットメントにもあります。AIRoAはデータセット、学習済みモデル、ベンチマークを誰もが利用できる共有の「ロボット・データ・エコシステム」の構築を目指しています。実現が成功すれば、世界中の研究者が、私たちのオープン評価プラットフォームを通じて、標準化されたヒューマノイドロボット上で自らのモデルを評価できるようになることを期待しています。
