AI Reinforcement Learning Specialist (Humanoid Robotics)

Location: Pischelsdorf, Austria (Hybrid/Remote flexibility available)
Company: Rosendahl Nextrom
Employment Type: Full-Time

IMPORTANT: For this position we can only hire EU Citizens . We can support relocation for EU citizens.

Our Client is a global technology leader in high-precision equipment for the battery, cable, wire, and fiber optic industries.

As they expand into AI and robotics, they are building a forward-thinking engineering team to develop humanoid labour as a service - a breakthrough offering for smart logistics, production, and beyond.

We are seeking an AI Reinforcement Learning Specialist to train humanoid robots in both simulated and real-world environments. You will play a pivotal role in building the foundation of this new initiative, applying cutting-edge deep reinforcement learning to extend the intelligence and autonomy of robotic systems for industrial use.

This is a startup-like environment within a well-established global engineering company - ideal for engineers who want autonomy, innovation, and impact.

Responsibilities

• Design, train, and validate reinforcement learning models for humanoid robotic systems in simulated and physical environments
• Integrate and optimize training using environments like Isaac SIM, MuJoCo, Unitree Sim, and OmniVerse
• Develop robust, real-time systems with ROS 2, Linux, and C++/Python
• Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and AI teams to implement and test solutions on real hardware
• Use tools such as GROOT, N1, and Cosmos to streamline deployment and visualization
• Research and apply state-of-the-art reinforcement learning algorithms for robotics (PPO, SAC, DDPG, etc.)
• Work toward a scalable ‘humanoid labor as a service’ platform adaptable to our industrial customer base

Ideal Candidate Profile

• MSc or PhD in Robotics, Computer Science, AI, or related field
• Proven experience applying reinforcement learning to robotic systems
• Hands-on expertise with simulators such as Isaac SIM, MuJoCo, and OmniVerse
• Strong skills in C++, Python, and working in Linux environments
• Experience with robotic middleware (ROS 2), sensors, actuators, and real-world integration
• Excellent communication skills and a startup mindset—comfortable working in fast-moving, interdisciplinary teams

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation package, tailored to candidate experience and market rates
• Flexible working hours and hybrid/remote work possibilities
• Opportunity to work on a greenfield project with high visibility and executive support
• Collaborative and innovation-driven environment, backed by Rosendahl Nextrom’s global reach
• Access to internal and external training, conferences, and technical mentorship

Vision & Mission

This project is part of our long-term vision to deliver humanoid labor as a service—unlocking advanced robotics for industrial automation, logistics, and beyond. As this is a strategic new direction, you will have a voice in shaping not only the technology but also the business model behind it.
