About the role

Persona AI Inc. seeks a Reinforcement Learning Engineer to advance dexterous grasping on real hardware. You will design RL policies, bridge sim-to-real gaps, and craft reward structures for high‑DOF hands. You will train in MuJoCo/Isaac Lab, iterate on real robots, and push state-of-the-art research into production on a humanoid platform. Strong Python, PyTorch, and JAX skills are essential.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
