You will work within a small, ambitious team at the intersection of AI research and physical deployment, shipping models onto real hardware in a production environment.\nWhat You'll Do\nResearch and evaluate ML models for robot perception and task understanding.\n\nApply computer vision and deep learning to sensor data including cameras, force/torque sensors, and depth sensors.\n\nExperiment with reinforcement learning and imitation learning for robot control.\n\nIntegrate AI models into a ROS 2 robotics software stack.\n\nRun rigorous experiments, measure results carefully, and iterate quickly.\n\nBridge the gap between research prototypes and real-world factory deployment.\n\nWhat We're Looking For\n0 to 3 years of experience, including new graduates welcome.\n\nBSc or MSc in Robotics, Computer Science, AI/ML, or a closely related field, or equivalent practical experience.\n\nBackground directly relevant to robot learning, such as robotics, computer vision, or ML for physical systems.\n\nStrong proficiency in Python and hands-on experience with PyTorch or TensorFlow.\n\nEnthusiasm for working with physical systems and deploying AI on real robots.\n\nRigorous experimental mindset with a bias for fast iteration.\n\nFluent English; German is a plus.\n\nFamiliarity with ROS or ROS 2 is a bonus.\n\nExperience with sim-to-real transfer or physics simulators such as Isaac Sim, PyBullet, or MuJoCo is a bonus.\n\nFamiliarity with 3D perception, point clouds, or depth estimation is a bonus.\n\nResearch publications or open-source contributions in robotics or ML are a bonus.\n\nCompensation & Benefits\nEquity participation is included. Cash compensation details are available on request. Visa sponsorship is not available; candidates must already be eligible to work in Germany.\nLocation\nOn-site in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, five days per week.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2116,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Germany","iso":"DE","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Robotic Software & Control Systems"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-23T17:34:01Z"}],"liveness":{"score":52,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.516,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":6,"reasons":["conf:0","agency","win:early","comp:junior,brand"],"computed_at":"2026-09-24T00:46:27Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/clera-robot-learning-engineer-6","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/clera-robot-learning-engineer-6.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-09-24T00:46:27Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers"}}
