Tutor Intelligence

Senior Robotics Software Engineer, Full Stack Manipulation

Job Description

We understand that general purpose and generally intelligent robots are going to be built in our lifetimes. Not content to sit on the sidelines, we work efficiently towards this goal by combining human and artificial intelligence into something greater than the sum of its parts - a Tutor Intelligence.

We enable anyone to teach robots complicated vision and manipulation skills. We iterate quickly to get real robots in the field, where our robots observe, copy, adapt, and improve on what we show them. They are the students, we are the Tutors.

The robot problems we tackle range from the classical to the unsolved. We solve problems in planning, computer vision, SLAM, optimization, machine learning, and more. For this role, we’re looking for someone to focus on the full stack manipulation pipeline, from box perception, picking, robot arm planning, box placement, and pallet stacking algorithms.

If this sounds like you, read on!

Across the board we write software to make our robots more capable, faster and safer. We work mostly in Python and Linux. We expect our roboticists to also have strong software engineering skills: our interview process includes a rigorous set of software tests. We are a small and high-powered team: we prioritize flexibility and product-focus, hiring engineers who are excited about taking on the next biggest blocker, prioritizing project mission over technical interests.

Requirements

  • Experience with building some part of a full robotics manipulation pipeline, including picking, placing, pallet stacking algorithms, planning/trajectory generation, and lower-level arm control (not required to have worked one very layer, but the more the better)
  • Experience using/building sim/visualization for debugging a robot manipulator
  • Experience debugging robotics issues on real hardware
  • Strong software skills, especially in Python
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills
  • Strong product/customer focus: have an interest in the project’s ultimate goal, rather than a specific way to get there
  • Nice to have

  • Experience working with mobile manipulators
  • Experience with shared autonomy systems
  • Experience working in warehouse robotics
  • Experience with design/interfacing with hardware design teams
  • About Tutor Intelligence

    MIT CSAIL spinout. AI-powered warehouse robots deployed via Robots-as-a-Service model.
