Original job description

Human Computer Lab is a research lab building character robots that feel alive and responsive. Our first robot, LeLamp, explores a new category of consumer robotics where everyday objects become interactive and help us reshape our attachment to technology.

Our goal is to push the frontier of human-robot interaction by making technology more legible, emotionally intuitive, and human-centered. We are building the foundation for a new generation of robots designed for everyday environments.

What to expect

We're looking for an inventor who builds. Someone who gets an unlikely idea on a weekend, tries it, watches it fail, notices something surprising in the wreckage, and follows that instead - all the way to a model, a dataset, a working robot, and a write-up anyone can reproduce. Research is the inventing half: finding the question nobody has asked, trying the unexpected method first, and building the evaluation that tells you the truth. Engineering is the making half: turning the idea into something that runs on a real robot, in a real home, fast enough that a person never notices the machinery. Most people are strong at one. This role is for the person who can't stop doing both. It isn't bound to one discipline - the problem might be expressive motion this month, sensing or thermals next quarter, an inference stack or a new robot body after that. You'll work directly with the CEO and founding team, with real room to explore, on problems that ship to people's homes.

In this role, you will:

Pick open problems across the system - motion, perception, sensing, actuation, thermals, inference, tooling - and take them from first idea to working artifact.
Try the unlikely approach before the obvious one, kill it honestly when it fails, and use what the failure taught you.
Build the evaluation before you trust the result: the metric, the probe, and the side-by-side that catch what averages hide.
Create data where none exists - bootstrap it, synthesize it, curate it with taste - and know when synthetic data is misleading you.
Ship end to end: the model, the dataset, the firmware, the demo, and the robot in the room. Make it fast and reliable enough for everyday life.
Work across abstraction layers when the problem demands it - from a circuit or motor driver up to a trained model and the interaction on top of it.
Write up what you tried, what failed, what the numbers say, and what you'd do next, so someone else can reproduce it.
Use AI as a research collaborator - to map a search space, run experiments, and pressure-test your own ideas - and share your judgment in how you use it for novel approaches.

You may be a good fit if you:

Have a body of self-directed work - projects, repositories, write-ups, videos, robots - that you started because you were curious, not because it was assigned. This matters more to us than any credential.
Have taken at least one idea from “what if” to a working, measured artifact, end to end.
Are fluent in Python and comfortable further down the stack - C/C++, embedded, or electronics - or have a record of learning a new layer when a problem required it.
Have trained, evaluated, and deployed ML models, and can reason about latency and compute on edge devices.
Have built real hardware - a robot, a device, an instrument, a sensor rig - from parts, not from a kit.
Can explain your failures as clearly as your successes.
Have a degree in engineering, computer science, physics, or a related field, or equivalent proof of work.
Have published research, open-source projects people actually use, or a public body of technical writing. A plus, not a requirement.

You will be a strong fit, if you:

Can't stop doing both halves - inventing the method and building the thing - and get restless doing only one.
Choose problems as carefully as you solve them, and can tell an interesting question from a merely difficult one.
Report what you found, not what you hoped. You'd rather say “it passed these checks” than “it's solved.”
Have taste. You care whether something feels alive and reads right to a person, not only whether the loss went down.
Move fast without being sloppy, and leave every result reproducible.
Care about what technology does to people - not just what it can do and want your inventions to change how people relate to the machines in their lives.

The early team becomes the DNA of the company. We set ourselves and others to a high standard, and we respond with kindness when things get hard but keep everyone accountable. This requires us to be curious, creative, and diverse in our thinking and approach.

We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and consider all qualified applicants regardless of race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status. Even if you don’t meet every single requirement, we encourage you to apply. Studies show that women and underrepresented groups often hold back unless they meet 100% of the criteria - we don’t want that to be the reason we miss out on great talent.

Responsibilities

You will lead the end-to-end development of robotic systems, from initial research and experimental design to hardware implementation and software deployment. The role requires balancing invention with engineering to create reliable, human-centered robotic artifacts for everyday environments.

Requirements

Candidates should possess a strong portfolio of self-directed technical projects and experience taking ideas from concept to a working, measured artifact. Proficiency in Python and lower-level systems like C/C++ or embedded electronics is essential, along with a degree in a relevant engineering or science field.
