About Tutor Intelligence

Tutor builds generally capable robots and puts them to work. Delivered in days not years, from $14 an hour. Backed by AI Grant and USV.

About the role

Our robots are built from hardware we design and hardware we buy, and many of our suppliers are in China. We're looking for an engineer to evaluate that hardware, integrate it into our robots, and work directly with the suppliers who make it. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Depth in mechanical or electrical engineering: You have designed hardware that shipped, and you can explain the design decisions you made
  • Working ability in the other discipline: A mechanical engineer who can read a schematic and probe a board, or an electrical engineer who can read a drawing and reason about loads and tolerances
  • Experience developing hardware with suppliers or factories in China: You have taken a product from prototype toward production with them
  • Fluent Mandarin and English: You can hold a technical discussion and write a specification in both
  • Strong test and measurement habits: You build test setups, take measurements, and write up what you found
  • Willing to travel: Long and frequent trips are part of the job
More about this role

We believe robots will be the next chapter in making physical labor safer and more affordable. But, nearly nine out of ten American factories and warehouses don’t have a single robot. Tutor Intelligence is changing that.

We build robots that go straight into real factories and warehouses, to do real work, with real impact. Our robot Cassie does back-breaking work, moving boxes, pallets, and bulk goods for family-owned manufacturers to some of the largest brands in the world. Our robot Sonny does handwork, using two arms to achieve human-like dexterity in picking and packing. Every robot learns on the job, and each one we deploy makes the next one more capable, more affordable, and faster to put to work.

Founded at MIT and headquartered in Watertown, MA, we do it all in-house: the robotics hardware, the machine learning, and the field deployment and service. We’re a team of researchers, engineers, technicians, operators, and sellers who love building things and solving hard problems.

Our mission is grand: robots everywhere, for the common good, raising the standard of living across North America, and then the world.

Our robots are built from hardware we design and hardware we buy,...
