About the Company

Reflex Robotics is building affordable wheeled humanoid robots to automate dangerous and repetitive tasks in manufacturing and logistics. Backed by Khosla Ventures, we are a high-growth startup focused on creating high-performance, low-cost robotics powered by a proprietary data engine and real-time teleoperation systems.

Responsibilities

• Architect and train large-scale video and world models
• Transform generative models into controllable simulators using action- and state-conditioned rollouts
• Build data and evaluation stacks for world modeling to quantify downstream policy success
• Drive the development of base policies to achieve near-perfect success rates in real-world robot deployments

Requirements

• Experience architecting and training large-scale video/world models (e.g., Sora, Veo)
• Proven ability to turn generative models into controllable simulators
• Experience building data and evaluation stacks for world modeling
• Passion for pushing the boundaries of robotics and AI
