Senior Machine Learning Operations and Data Engineer

Emancro’s mission is to build general-purpose hospital logistics robots that perform a wide variety of tasks such as distributing medication and medical supplies within hospitals, and many more tasks in the future. In this way, robots are freeing up medical staff’s time and enable better and more resilient patient care.

We are achieving this by collecting diverse robot teleoperation data as well as human data at large scale and training billion-parameter, general-purpose robotic foundation models. To this end we are rapidly ramping up the amount of data we process and our cloud compute capacity.

We are an ambitious and rapidly growing team pushing the boundaries of what is possible in robotics, leveraging recent, cutting-edge breakthroughs in machine learning-enabled, data-driven robotics.
