Commitment & contract: collaboration contract WHO WE ARE

At IIT we work enthusiastically to develop human-centered Science and Technology to tackle some of the most pressing societal challenges of our times and transfer these technologies to the production system and society.

YOUR TEAM You will be working in a multicultural and multi-disciplinary group, where biomedical, mechanical and electrical engineers, computational scientists, physicists, chemists, biotechnologists and biologists experts collaborate, each with their own expertise, to carry out common research. The Artificial and Mechanical Intelligence research line is coordinated by Daniele Pucci (https://ami. iit. it/) and is seeking to appoint a fellow researcher that focuses on foundation models that combine robot modes like motion, speech, vision, tactile sensors, etc. , to advance the human robot interaction features of the ergoCub humanoid robot (https://ergocub. eu/).

Main Responsibilities Develop software applications for the Artificial and Mechanical Intelligence cutting-edge robotics researchPrepare proof of concept software and libraries that enable generative, and more generally foundation, models to obtain a natural human-robot interaction combining several robot modesSupport the research line activitiesWHAT WOULD MAKE YOU SHINE Master or PhD Degree in Robotics, or Artificial Intelligence related topics;Knowledge of at least one of the following software: C++, PythonEnglish language skills (written and oral). EXTRA AWESOME Experience with one of the following: deploying algorithms onto real Robotics system; Foundation models, generative models, or specific instances of them (e. g. Large Language Models); exteroceptive and proprioceptive sensors used to train learning algorithmsOutstanding technical and theoretical skillsCreative, proactive and collaborative attitudeCOMPENSATION & BENEFITS Competitive salary for international standardsWide range of staff discountsWHAT'S IN FOR YOU? An equal, inclusive and multicultural environment ready to welcome you with open arms. Discrimination is a big NO for us!We like contamination and encourage you to mingle and discover what other people are up to in our labs!If paperwork is not your piece of cake, we got you!
