Humanoid is the first AI and robotics company in the UK, creating the world’s most advanced, reliable, commercially scalable, and safe humanoid robots. Our first humanoid robot HMND 01 is a next-gen labour automation unit, providing highly efficient services across various use cases, starting with industrial applications. We are seeking aTeleoperation Control Engineerto lead the development of intuitive teleoperation pipelines that unlock new robotic capabilities and fuel learning through high-quality human demonstrations. This role focuses on building the bridge between human operators and complex humanoid robots. You'll work at the intersection of hardware devices, operator interfaces, software integration, and learning workflows, enabling human supervisors to teach, guide, and correct robotic behaviors in real time. You’ll be instrumental in creating a teleop-powered flywheel: fast, intuitive teleoperation that produces rich data, which accelerates model training, which in turn reduces reliance on teleop — compounding progress over time. A deep understanding of robot control principles and hands-on experience with real robotic hardware are essential for success in this role. Responsibilities Design and implementintuitive , low-latencyteleoperation interfacesfor controlling humanoid robots in manipulation and mobility tasks. Develop a robust teleop architecture that canscale across platforms and applications —from manipulation to loco-manipulation and beyond. Integrate a broad range of input devices (e.g., puppet arms, VR controllers, gloves, haptic devices, motion capture systems) into the robot software stack. Translate noisy, high-frequency human input into smooth targets for the robot Build tooling to streamline operator training and demonstration workflows, including in sim and hardware environments. Developsemi-autonomous features , blending human input with autonomous control for enhanced precision and ease of use. Ensuresensor data fusionand createeffective visualization toolsfor intuitive remote control. Conductstress teststo ensure system reliability under extended operational conditions. Work directly withreal robotic hardware , ensuring software is robust and well-integrated with physical systems. Collaborate withperception and hardware teamsto bring teleoperation requirements into the HW design. Expertise MS or PhD in Robotics, Computer Engineering, Human-Computer Interaction, or a related field. 5+ years of experience in robotics, with a strong focus on teleoperation systems and human-robot interfaces. Expertise in integrating teleop devices and building operator interfaces that prioritize usability, precision, and operator flow. Proficient in C++ and Python, with experience in ROS/ROS2, real-time data streaming, and robotic middleware. Strong understanding of robot kinematics, coordinate systems, and interfacing with low-level control systems. Experience working directly withreal robotic hardware(with humanoid robots, dexterous manipulation, or mobile manipulation) in laboratory or production environments. Experience developing modular and scalable software architectures for robotic systems. Strong debugging and system performance optimization skills. Preferred Qualifications Experience with data collection for imitation learning, behavior cloning, or other robot learning paradigms. Exposure to intent inference, shared autonomy, or assistive control. Experience working with simulation environments (Isaac Gym, Mujoco, Unity) for teleop + data collection. Passion for building elegant tools that improve the human-robot experience. High competitive salary. 23 calendar days of vacation per year. Opportunity to work on the latest technologies in AI/ML, Robotics and others. Startup model, offering a dynamic and innovative work environment.
