Overview

Location: Trondheim, Norway or San Jose, California, US.

Role: As a Robotics Software Engineer specializing in robot learning and manipulation, you will drive the design, training, validation, and deployment of contact-rich manipulation skills on real robots. Your focus will be on solving dexterous, contact-rich manipulation tasks. You will develop and integrate sensor-based control strategies and Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies, managing the full model lifecycle, from architecture and large-scale data collection through training, validation, and reliable deployment on industrial and collaborative robots.

This is a hands-on engineering role. You will spend significant time in the lab, running trials on hardware, curating high-quality datasets, and getting models to work on real robotic systems.
