Kinisi Robotics – Large-Behaviour Models Research Engineer Job Title: Large-Behaviour Models Research Engineer Location: Bristol, UK | Hybrid (primarily on-site) Team: Manipulation & Robot Learning Team Employment Type: Full-time, Permanent About the Role Kinisi is pushing the frontier of dexterous, whole-body manipulation. By fusing large-scale demonstration data - from teleoperation, human demos and the open web - we teach Kinisi robots to solve new tasks from just a handful of examples. As an Large-Behaviour Models Engineer, you’ll help design, train and ship the next generation of multitask manipulation policies. What You’ll Do Invent & apply ML – Turn cutting-edge behaviour-cloning and generative-model ideas into practical solutions for real, bimanual manipulation challenges. Build great software – Craft well-documented, tested and maintainable Python / C++ code that the whole team can rely on. Drive technical direction – Lead design reviews and partner closely with Kinisi-platform engineers to integrate your work end-to-end. Own deployment – Bring your models onto Kinisi hardware, debug in the loop and iterate until performance shines. Qualifications M.S. (or higher) in CS, ML, Robotics or a related field. Hands-on experience training and rolling out learned control policies - either on robots or complex simulated agents. Fluency with modern ML stacks, model architectures and experiment workflows. Sharp analytical instincts and a knack for diagnosing tricky runtime issues. Why Join Us? This is an opportunity to work on cutting-edge robotic systems in a collaborative, hands-on environment. You’ll contribute to a product that’s heading to market and help shape the future of industrial automation.
