Full Job Description

We are seeking a Sr. Applied Scientist to focus on Robot Navigation. In this role, you'll research and develop advanced navigation systems that enable robots to move reliably and safely through complex, dynamic environments. You'll work across a broad spectrum of navigation approaches—from classical methods to learning-based techniques and foundation models—to build robust solutions for autonomous robot navigation.

Key job responsibilities

Develop and implement robust navigation systems that enable reliable autonomous operation in complex, dynamic indoor environments with static and dynamic obstacles
Build simulation-based and on-device evaluation frameworks with comprehensive benchmarks and metrics for systematic comparison of navigation methods
Conduct sim-to-real transfer experiments, analyzing performance gaps and developing techniques to ensure reliable real-world navigation performance
Collaborate with world model, manipulation, and other teams to ensure seamless integration of navigation capabilities into the full robot system
Stay current with the latest advances in robot navigation, spatial reasoning, and related fields, and apply relevant findings to improve system performance
Mentor fellow scientists and engineers while maintaining strong individual technical contributions

About the team
Fauna Robotics, an Amazon company, is building capable, safe, and genuinely delightful robots for everyday life. Our goal is simple: make robots people actually want to live and interact with in everyday human spaces.
We believe that future won’t arrive until building for robotics becomes far more accessible. Today, too much effort is spent reinventing the fundamentals. We’re changing that by developing tightly integrated hardware and software systems that make it faster, safer, and more intuitive to create real-world robotic products.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

PhD, or Master's degree and 6+ years of applied research experience
3+ years of industry or academic research experience
Strong publication record at major Robotics/ML/AI conferences (e.g., RSS, CoRL, ICRA, IROS, NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR)
Experience programming in Python, C++,or related language
Experience with sim-to-real transfer for robotic systems
Demonstrated track record of leading technical projects
Experience mentoring junior scientists/engineers

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

History of impactful first-author publications at major conferences
Experience bridging research with practical engineering implementation in robotics systems
Experience with visual navigation, semantic navigation, or foundation models applied to robot navigation
Experience evaluating and benchmarking multiple navigation approaches (classical, learning-based, foundation model-based)
