Forward Deployed AI Engineer (m/f/d)

Agile Robots SE is an innovative company with a clear mission: bringing intelligent robotic solutions to our customers. We combine the latest technology in the field of AI with powerful robotic systems — from industrial robot arms and mobile manipulators to humanoids — to solve tasks that classical automation cannot address.

We are looking for a passionate Forward Deployed AI Engineer to bring state-of-the-art robot learning and computer vision models into real production environments. In this role, you will train, fine-tune, and deploy AI models directly on customer robots — from Vision-Language-Action models and diffusion policies to perception and grasp generation networks. You will become a trusted technical partner, turning customer challenges into robust, data-driven robotics applications. The role is based in Munich, Germany.

What you'll do:

• Deploy, fine-tune, and evaluate AI models on real robotic systems at customer sites — including Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, diffusion policies, and other end-to-end learned policies
• Adapt and train perception models for robotic applications, e.g. object detection, segmentation, and pose estimation based on YOLO, SAM, vision transformers, and self-supervised backbones such as DINOv2
• Integrate and tune grasp generation models (e.g., GraspNet, Dex-Net, Contact-GraspNet) for bin picking and manipulation tasks
• Build data pipelines for customer deployments: demonstration and teleoperation recording, dataset curation, annotation, training runs, and systematic evaluation of model performance
• Bring models into production: optimize inference, deploy on edge and embedded hardware, and integrate models into our robotic software platform
• Work closely with customers to understand technical requirements and translate them into robust, AI-driven robotics applications
