Dear Colleagues,
we are looking for an exceptional postdoctoral research associate to
join the
Dynamic Robot Systems - Control (DRS-C)
group of the
Oxford Robotics
Institute. At DRS-C we work on autonomy for mobile articulated
robots, and focus on machine learning, motion and path planning, and
control for dynamic robots in real-world environments.
We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic about developing
learning-based (loco-)manipulation approaches, considering multiple
feedback modalities, and deploying these to -real- articulated
mobile robots. The work will span domains such as learning-based
whole-body motion planning and control, legged multi-contact
manipulation and locomotion, reinforcement learning and
optimization, and experience in one or more of these areas is
desirable.
The project underpinning this position is aimed at collaborative
work with colleagues from ETH Zurich’s 'RobotX - Center for
Robotics' and has a rich plan of joint workshops, visits and other
activities.
How to apply and further information can be found at:

Closing date for applications is:
12.00pm (noon, UK) Monday 1st
September 2025.
Best,
Ioannis
