Agentic AI Engineer (human)

Job description preview

From Neura Robotics’s original posting

Your mission & challenges At NEURA Robotics, cognitive robots don't just execute commands. They perceive, reason, plan over long horizons, and act autonomously in the physical world. We're looking for an engineer who builds the systems that make that possible: the agent harnesses, planning loops, and orchestration layers that turn a language model into a reliable embodied agent. • Agent architecture & harness design: Design and build the core agent harness for our humanoid platform: the control loop, tool/skill interfaces, state and memory management, retries, and guardrails that keep long-running autonomous behavior reliable. • Long-horizon planning & orchestration: Build systems that decompose high-level human intent into multi-step plans, orchestrate skills and sub-agents, track execution state, recover from errors, and escalate to human oversight when risk is high. • Conversational AI for embodied interaction: Design the real-time voice stack: STT → LLM → TTS pipeline with robust turn-taking, barge-in handling, and addressee detection so the robot knows when it's being spoken to and responds naturally under real-world latency constraints. • Backend & platform engineering: Build…
