Research Scientist – Embodied AI | London (Hybrid)upto £200,000 DeepRec.ai is partnering exclusively with a well-funded spatial AI company building a foundation model of the physical world, the layer robots and AI agents need to understand real places, not just pixels. Their London research lab is hiring a Research Scientist into a dedicated Embodied AI group. The focus is closing the sim-to-real gap: turning real-world captures into accurate, simulation-ready environments that robots can be trained and evaluated in. What you'll work onInventing new algorithms at the overlap of computer vision, machine learning, graphics and roboticsAdvancing a large-scale geospatial model for embodied AI use cases3D reconstruction, scene understanding and spatial reasoning for robots and other machinesTaking research from paper to working systems used by real robotics teamsPublishing at top venues alongside a strong, research-led teamWhat they're looking forPhD (or equivalent) in Computer Vision, ML or RoboticsFirst-author publications at CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICLR or similarStrong grounding in 3D vision: SLAM, SfM, neural rendering, Gaussian splatting or similarExcellent research code in PyTorch or JAXBonus: robotics simulation (Isaac Sim, MuJoCo), sim-to-real, VLMs or policy learningWhy it's interestingRare chance to work on embodied AI with real-world data at global scaleResearch-first culture with strong academic linksSmall, senior team where your work ships
