One Autonomy for All Robots. Field-proven embodied AI software that is finally unlocking the full potential of mobile robots in the real world. Backed by Khosla.
About the role
Our Perception & AI/ML organization runs several research and engineering programs at once, and they converge on the same robots in the same customer deployments. Priorities shift — that is the nature of the work — and when they do, someone needs to know what the shift costs, who it affects, and what we tell the customer.
What they're looking for
- 4–7 years as a Technical Program Manager or equivalent, supporting AI/ML or data-driven engineering teams
- Experience across the AI/ML lifecycle — data collection and labeling, model training, evaluation, and deployment
- Experience working directly with customers or external stakeholders, turning their needs into internal priorities and timelines
- A demonstrated track record of bringing structure to ambiguous, fast-moving technical programs
- Bachelor’s degree in a technical discipline (Computer Science, Engineering, or related), or equivalent practical experience
More about this role
FieldAI ’s Irvine team is where embodied AI meets real robots, real sensors, and real field deployments. Based in the heart of Southern California’s robotics ecosystem, we build risk-aware, reliable, field-ready AI systems that solve the hardest problems in robotics and unlock the full potential of embodied intelligence. If you want your work to ship, get tested on hardware, and improve through real deployments, Irvine is the place. We go beyond typical data-driven approaches or pure transformer-only architectures, combining rigorous engineering with learning systems proven in globally deployed solutions that deliver results today and get better every time our robots run in the field.
