IN THIS newly created role, Dr. Wulfmeier will lead Nomagic’s research on Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, accelerating the company’s Robotics Foundation Model (RFM), a next-generation AI system designed to generalise across complex physical tasks.

Working with Nomagic’s engineering and research teams, he will leverage the company’s Library of Chaos, an ever-growing proprietary dataset of millions of real-world edge cases collected from live warehouse operations, to train and validate advanced end-to-end VLA models. His work will also advance complex object manipulation, combining real-world data with new demonstrations, while enhancing both online and offline reinforcement learning capabilities across Nomagic’s software stack.

Nomagic CEO Kacper Nowicki, says: “Markus joins Nomagic at a pivotal moment as we scale the development and deployment of physical AI systems that are transforming warehouse fulfilment.”

Dr. Wulfmeier was a core member of Gemini Robotics at Google, where he helped shape its post-training strategy.
