Lead Principal Applied Scientist - Robotics

The IC5 Applied Scientist for Robotics, Perception, and Embodied AI will serve as a senior technical leader responsible for defining, prototyping, and delivering AI capabilities for commercially viable robotic systems. This role partners across science, software engineering, product, and hardware teams to identify high-impact opportunities, translate ambiguous product needs into research and engineering roadmaps, and guide end-to-end solution development from data collection and experimentation through production deployment. The scientist will lead applied research in multi-sensor fusion, real-time signals, perception, multimodal reasoning,
reinforcement learning, and action-conditioned planning, with a strong bias for hands-on execution and full-stack delivery.
