Postdoc in Embodied AI and Robot Learning Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology Centre in Singapore

Job alert for a Postdoc in Embodied AI at the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology Centre (SMART) in Singapore.

The project focuses on building robots that can act from force and touch, even without continuous vision, through a fast reflex-and-habitual motor-control layer. The work is part of a new NRF programme titled Biologically Inspired Embodied AI Action Architecture.

This position is especially relevant for researchers in robotics, robot learning, reinforcement learning, imitation learning, manipulation, and real-time control. The post highlights real-robot deployment and a rare cross-institution setup spanning Daniela Rus's group at MIT CSAIL, Wei-Yun Yau's group at I²R (A*STAR), and Jianfei Yang's group at NTU Singapore.

Eligibility emphasis: candidates should be strong in robot learning and practical deployment on real robots. No specific deadline, stipend amount, or formal degree requirement is stated in the post.

How to apply: use the application portal linked in the post and submit directly if interested.
