Your Impact at LILA
As a Co-Op on the Production Robotics team at Lila Sciences, you will help build the algorithms and software that let our robots know where they are and what they are looking at, so they can run scientific workflows reliably inside the AI Science Factories (AISFs). The team develops the state estimation, perception, and testing infrastructure that general-purpose robotic skills depend on.
Your work will sit at the intersection of estimation, computer vision, and robotics software. You will help improve how our mobile bases estimate their position and motion, develop camera-based detection and localization of AprilTags and lab instruments, and strengthen the simulation-based testing and CI that validate changes before they reach hardware. Expect a mix of writing production-quality software, applying math to real sensor data, and debugging real-world behavior on physical robots.
You will work alongside robotics engineers, AI researchers, and software engineers, with day-to-day support from the Production Robotics team. The output is software that runs in production lab environments and directly accelerates the rate at which Lila can run experiments.
