Reinforcement Learning & Controls Research Scientist- Spot Behavior

At Boston Dynamics, we are pushing the boundaries of what legged robots can do in the real world. The Spot Behavior team is building next-generation locomotion and mobility capabilities, and we are seeking a curious, driven engineer to develop reinforcement learning solutions that run directly on our quadruped platforms. In this role, you will design, train, and deploy RL policies that integrate tightly with Spot's control stack to deliver robust, agile behavior across real-world environments. Day-to-Day Activities: Design and deploy RL systems that improve Spot's mobility and robustness across challenging terrain. Tune and validate low-level controllers (e.g., PD/PID, whole-body control) at the interface with learned policies.…
