ML Engineer - Robotics

About Us

Deccan AI is AI training, evaluations and Enterprise AI solutions startup headquartered in the Bay Area. We are founded by IIT Bombay, IIM Ahmedabad and ex-Google alumni, and work with some of the top AI frontier labs in the world. Backed by Prosus Ventures and A91 we are expanding the team in US, San Mateo.

About the Role

We’re looking for anML Engineer – Robotics to design, train, and deploy intelligent models that power autonomous systems. You’ll work at the intersection ofmachine learning, control systems, and real-world robotics, helping to build perception, planning, and decision-making pipelines that make machines truly adaptive.

This role is ideal for someone who loves solving hard, interdisciplinary problems — combining data-driven learning with real-world constraints.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and optimizeML models for perception, motion planning, and control.

• Buildcomputer vision and sensor fusion systems using camera, LiDAR, and IMU data.

• Integrate learning-based models withrobotics software stacks (ROS/ROS2).

• Design pipelines fordata collection, simulation, and reinforcement learning.

• Collaborate with robotics and hardware engineers to deploy models in live environments.

• Continuously evaluate model performance and robustness across diverse scenarios.

What You’ll Bring

• 3–8 years of experience inMachine Learning, Robotics, or Computer Vision.

• Proficiency inPython, C++, and frameworks such asPyTorch / TensorFlow.

• Strong understanding ofrobotics concepts — localization, SLAM, control systems, or sensor fusion.

• Experience withsimulation environments (Gazebo, Isaac Sim, CARLA, Mujoco, or PyBullet).

• Familiarity withreinforcement learning, imitation learning, or adaptive control techniques.

• Solid grasp of deploying ML models inreal-time or embedded environments.

• Curiosity, grit, and passion for pushing the boundaries of embodied intelligence.
