Industrial Robots that Learn and Operate Like Humans. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
We’re looking for a Senior Robotics Engineer to join our core team. You will build the robotics execution layer that turns AI-driven task plans and high-level intent into reliable, precise robot behavior on real hardware. Working at the intersection of AI agents and robotics, you'll bridge intelligent decision-making with real-time motion execution, feedback control, and physical-world constraints. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Experience programming or interfacing with industrial robots such as ABB, FANUC, KUKA, or UR
- Strong experience building production-grade robotics systems in ROS2
- Experience integrating AI-based perception, learned policies, or high-level task planning systems with robot motion and control
- Advanced degree in Robotics, Controls, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
More about this role
Join Mbodi AI (YC X25), an AI robotics startup founded by two former Googlers committed to pushing the boundaries of physical intelligence. Mbodi is an embodied AI platform that makes robots learn and operate like humans. Anyone can teach robots new skills by talking to them — and execute those skills reliably in production within minutes.
We are pioneering the next wave of robotics, where AI agents meet physical-world applications. Backed by top investors and working with global industrial partners such as ABB, we’re redefining what’s possible in robotics and automation.
