GoKawiilAbout Mbodi
Mbodi is building embodied AI platform that makes robots learn and operate like humans, with natural language. Our software lets anyone teach robots new skills by talking to them and execute the learned skills reliably in production, in minutes. We are pioneering the next wave of robotics, where advanced generative models, agentic systems, and real world automation come together.
We are backed by top investors, part of YC X25, and working with global industrial partners including ABB and Fortune 100 customers across manufacturing, logistics, and labs.
Our founders bring experience from Google and robotics research at UPenn GRASP, and we are building a small, senior team focused on one of the hardest problems in AI: bringing intelligence into the physical world.
As one of our early engineers, you’ll be responsible for developing and deploying cutting-edge ML models and agentic AI systems that power robot learning and behavior. As a founding team member, you’ll play a critical role in shaping our technology, culture, and mission from the ground up.
In this role, you will:
Conduct applied research at the intersection of generative AI and robotics, with a focus on models and systems that work in the real world.
Design and implement algorithms and models for robot learning, perception, planning, and skill generalization across complex tasks.
Build robust, scalable systems that connect foundation models to reliable physical world execution, turning theory into impact.
Collaborate across ML, robotics, and product to advance agent orchestration and intelligent system integration.
