About the role

Maven Robotics is seeking an exceptional Machine Learning Engineer - Robot Manipulation to design, implement, test, and deploy machine learning algorithms that enable assembly and material movement tasks with robotic manipulators. You will focus on reinforcement learning and imitation learning, translating high‑level goals into robust models, and integrating them into real‑world robotic systems. This role offers a fast‑paced startup environment with opportunities to mentor others.

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.
