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
As our fleet grows, we need to know how long every part of our robots will last, and why the ones that fail early do. You'll be our first reliability engineer. You'll set reliability targets for the robot, measure them against real fleet and factory data, run the life testing that tells us where we stand, and personally tear down failed hardware to prove the root cause. You report to the Head of Manufacturing and have the authority to hold any robot that isn't ready to ship. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor's in Electrical, Mechanical, Mechatronics, Robotics or Computer Engineering
- 4+ years as a reliability engineer on electromechanical products (robotics, automation, automotive, aerospace, medical devices or similar)
- Hands-on reliability analysis: Weibull or life data analysis, MTBF/failure-rate modeling and reliability growth
- You've designed and run accelerated life or stress testing (ALT, HALT/HASS) and used the results to change a design or a supplier
- You've personally torn down failed hardware and driven it to a verified root cause, not by changing code or filing paperwork
- Experience with DFMEA and FRACAS
More about this role
We believe robots are the biggest lever we have to making the physical world a better, more affordable place. But robots are a rounding error in our society: nearly nine out of ten American factories and warehouses don’t even have a single robot, and robots have yet to make their way into our homes or places of business.
Tutor Intelligence is changing that.
Tutor is a robotics research and deployment company, building generally capable robot hardware and artificial intelligence to enable robots to go where no robots have gone before. Our robots range from a semi-humanoid with frontier dexterity approaching the human form to workhorses that do back-breaking work, moving boxes, pallets, and bulk goods for businesses from family-owned manufacturers to some of the largest brands in the world. Tutor robots are manufactured at scale and operate as a network, combining the whole fleet’s learned experience to train ever more capable robot artificial intelligence.
Founded at MIT and headquartered in Watertown, MA, our team is full stack: we design and manufacture robot hardware, train our own models, work directly with the smallest and largest end-customers, and maintain our fleet across...
