AI Robotics Engineer

About this role

# AI Robotics Engineer

## About Mecka AI

Mecka AI is building the data infrastructure layer for robotics and embodied AI.

We design and operate global systems for data capture, data labeling, and hardware-enabled workflows used by leading AI labs and robotics companies. Our datasets power models that learn from the physical world — enabling robots to understand, reason, and act in real environments.

We work closely with frontier robotics teams to bridge real-world data, simulation, and deployed robotic systems.

## The Role

We're hiring an AI Robotics Engineer based in New York City to help bring robotic intelligence from models into real-world execution.

This is a highly applied role focused on deployment, integration, and system performance. You'll work on connecting perception, policy, and control into systems that actually function reliably on real robots.

This role is ideal for engineers coming from top robotics companies (e.g. humanoids, autonomy, manipulation) or top academic labs, who want to work on real-world systems and move quickly from idea deployment.

## Responsibilities

### Model Integration & System Execution

• Integrate **vision, multimodal, and policy models** into robotic systems
• Translate model outputs into real-world control signals and actions
• Build the glue between perception decision actuation

### Perception & State Estimation

• Develop and improve perception pipelines
• Work on pose estimation, scene understanding, and object interaction
• Ensure robustness in real-world, noisy environments

### Control, Manipulation & Movement

• Implement and tune control systems for manipulation and locomotion
• Work on stability, smooth motion, and real-time responsiveness
• Handle real-world constraints like latency, drift, and noise

### Simulation & Sim-to-Real

• Use simulation environments to test and validate behaviors
• Help bridge **sim-to-real gaps**
• Leverage real-...
