Backed by Khosla.
About the role
The engine that trains our robots runs on two things we do not make entirely ourselves: the data we buy to fill coverage gaps, and the compute we train and run on. This role owns both, as one supply function. Done right, it is a moat, not procurement.
What they're looking for
- A negotiator and an operator. Comfortable with commercial terms and with the technical details, data quality, compute capacity, and utilization, that decide whether a deal is any good
- You plan capacity and spend. You forecast demand, secure supply ahead of it, and manage a large, growing spend line without surprises
- You own ambiguity at all altitudes. You can set strategy with leadership and troubleshoot delivery with a supplier in the same day
- Compliance-aware by instinct. You understand provenance, licensing, consent, and the cross-border realities of acquiring data
- You build your own tools. You stand up the trackers, scorecards, and dashboards you need, without waiting
More about this role
We are a full-stack general-purpose robot company, born across San Francisco and Paris and bound by a single mission: to make general-purpose robots a reality, unlocking infinite physical labor for the world and freeing people for creativity, exploration, and the pursuits they love for their own sake.
We are French and American by birth and global by nature. We are backed by partners who share our vision, including Eclipse, Khosla Ventures, Bpifrance, and HSG, alongside Eric Schmidt, Xavier Niel, Daniela Rus, and Vladlen Koltun. Our people work across the Bay Area and Europe, building the engine that will teach robots to do real work in the real world. We recently unveiled Eno, our wheeled, dexterous robot powered by our GENE foundation model, and we are starting to put it to work with real customers.

You will build our sourcing and vendor function from zero across data and compute. You will find the right datasets, partners, and...
