What are the responsibilities and job description for the Artificial Intelligence Engineer position at Harrison Clarke?
AI Engineer / Researcher - Embodied AI & Robotics - US Citizenship required
We are working with a well-funded, early-stage startup building the next generation of autonomous intelligence systems - a foundation model that enables machines to see, reason, and act in the real world.
This is not traditional AI. The team is developing multimodal (vision–language–action) models that run directly on hardware, powering autonomous systems in complex, real-world environments.
The Role
You’ll work across:
- Multimodal model design (vision, language, action)
- Reinforcement learning & imitation learning for embodied agents
- Real-time inference on edge systems
- Memory, reasoning, and multi-agent coordination
- Simulation → real-world deployment
What They’re Looking For
- Strong background in ML/AI (CV, RL, or multimodal models)
- Experience building and deploying real systems, not just research
- Proficiency in Python PyTorch/TensorFlow (bonus: CUDA/JAX)
- Interest in robotics, autonomy, or embodied AI
Why This Is Interesting
- Small, elite team tackling one of the hardest problems in AI
- Opportunity to build a robotic foundation model from the ground up
- Work that moves from research → real-world deployment
- Strong funding early traction
