About the Job

Requirements

  • An excellent master's or PhD degree in computer science, electrical engineering, embedded systems, or a related field.
  • At least 7 years of experience in machine learning or embedded AI engineering, including at least 2 years in technical leadership responsibility, and production deployments on embedded accelerators.
  • Practical experience with embedded AI hardware platforms such as NVIDIA Jetson, Qualcomm IQ series, or comparable platforms.
  • Deep understanding of model optimization from model to chip, including quantization, pruning, distillation, and architecture search.
  • Proficiency with model optimization and deployment toolchains such as ONNX, TensorRT, AIMET, or comparable vendor SDKs.
  • Strong Python and C++ skills, experience with PyTorch, and proficiency with Embedded Linux and low-level profiling.
  • Ability to lead engineers, make decisions under uncertainty, and communicate effectively with researchers, hardware engineers, and product colleagues.
  • Fluent English is required.

Responsibilities

  • Set the technical direction and make hardware and architecture decisions, remaining hands-on with profiling when needed.
  • Drive the on-device AI roadmap from research through product delivery.
  • Build and lead the team by hiring Edge AI engineers, supporting their growth, and developing their expertise.
  • Prepare models for deployment by moving them into production using quantization, pruning, distillation, and other methods to optimize performance on embedded accelerator platforms.
  • Own the end-to-end toolchain, including model-export and inference-optimization frameworks and SDKs that turn models into functional robot behavior.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware, software, and product teams to meet latency, energy, and memory budgets.
  • Own benchmarking, on-device evaluation, and performance regression testing across all shipped hardware targets.
  • Debug accuracy drops after quantization, identify latency spikes, and resolve difficult technical issues.

Desired Qualifications

  • German proficiency at B2 to C1 level.

About the Company

Neura Robotics

Cognitive robots with perception, manipulation, collaboration

Neura Robotics builds cognitive robots for industrial and service settings, combining perception, manipulation, and human collaboration. It develops both the hardware and the software stack for Physical AI, creating robot platforms like MAiRA, MAV, LARA and MiPA along with training infrastructure. The system works by integrating sensing, decision-making, and manipulation capabilities on a hardware-software stack that can be deployed in large-scale production, with the company planning robots fleets and NEURA Gyms for ongoing training and improvement. What sets Neura Robotics apart is its end-to-end approach to Physical AI, including a focus on mass production, an established global deployment plan, and a broad ecosystem of strategic backers and partners that support scaling and international expansion. The goal is to enable worldwide deployment of its robot platforms and associated training infrastructure, turning physical AI into widely available industrial and service automation.
