Job opening for a research position in Robotics at the University of Genoa
The research group TheEngineRoom at the University of Genoa is offering a vacancy for a researcher in the field of cognitive robotics, robot control, and machine learning as part of the international ERASMUS+ research project, conducted in collaboration with European and Indian partners. The University of Genoa collaborates with the University of Montenegro within the Ulysseus alliance.
Scientific Coordinator: Prof. Fulvio Mastrogiovanni
Position: Research Fellowship
Location: University of Genoa, Italy
Duration: 2 years
Fellowship Amount: €23,250.00 annually (before taxes)
Overview:
You will have the opportunity to work on integrating machine learning approaches and robot control algorithms. Youll implement new algorithms into cognitive robotic architectures using digital twin technology. Responsibilities include identifying use cases, validation scenarios, and gaining a deep understanding of human-robot collaboration processes in various settings. Your role will also encompass conceptualizing, developing, and validating prototype solutions, eventually testing them in real-world environments. Interaction with the project consortium is also a key part of the role.
Responsibilities:
- Identifying opportunities to implement new control algorithms based on machine learning approaches.
- Conceptualizing innovative human-robot collaboration solutions.
- Developing prototype solutions and testing them in real conditions.
