CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellowships help facilitate the recruitment and development of our potential leaders. They provide valuable opportunities for scientists and engineers to launch their careers, extend professional networks and enhance their career prospects.
As the CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellow in Machine Learning for Robotic Mobility with CSIRO’s Data61, you will undertake research enabling mobile robots to traverse novel environments/terrains. You are an experience-based learner who can pick up new concepts and skills quickly, and you are able to generalise that experience in extended missions. This may involve creating novel mappings from sensors to learned metric-spaces, and using a robot’s experience (e.g. hitting a rock) to generalize and avoid related situations (rocks or stumps in road). You will be hands on with legged and wheeled vehicles; developing new robotic behaviours, and working within larger teams developing these platforms.
The Robotics and Autonomous Systems group is competing in the systems track of the DARPA SubT Challenge and it is expected that this Postdoctoral Fellow will contribute to this Challenge project. Join our team and be part of this exciting initiative involving the creation of fast capable robots traversing novel complex terrain.
