Head of AI/ML - Robotics start-up

Are you ready to revolutionise the world of robotics as a Head of AI?

Do you want to join a growing visionary team that's redefining human-machine collaboration?

Step into a leadership role where your expertise in AI/ML will drive the development of humanoid robots that redefine human-machine collaboration.

We are on a mission to transform how humans and machines work together. Imagine a world where millions of humanoid robots take on tasks that are hazardous, monotonous, or simply undesirable, allowing people to focus on what truly matters.

Our vision is a future of abundance, where technology addresses labor shortages and creates new opportunities for well-being.

As Head of AI/ML, you will:

  • Lead the design and development of AI/ML algorithms for perception, decision-making, control, and autonomous driving.
  • Define and execute research roadmaps, establishing data pipelines to support cutting-edge AI/ML workflows.
  • Integrate AI/ML capabilities into our humanoid platform, driving collaboration with cross-functional teams.
  • Represent our technological advancements in industry forums and foster partnerships with academia and research institutions.
  • Inspire and grow a talented AI/ML team, shaping the future of robotics through innovation and strategic leadership.

    What We're Looking For:
  • Proven experience in AI/ML, particularly within robotics, automation, or autonomous systems.
  • Expertise in machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, NLP, and world model architectures (SLAM, CNN/DNN)
  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to build and nurture high-performing teams.
  • A strategic thinker with excellent communication skills, ready to drive impactful AI/ML initiatives.

    What's in It for You:
  • Competitive salary + stock options.
  • Flexible working hours and a dynamic start-up environment.
  • Be part of a groundbreaking team shaping the future of robotics.

    Offices in London, with relocation opportunities across Europe.
    Sponsorship can be provided.
