We encourage people of all backgrounds and identities to apply for this role, especially women and people of color; we strongly believe AI and robotics is our future, and teams built of a diverse range of people are necessary to bring us there.
The Company:
Tutor Intelligence is a startup in Boston’s Financial District building the technology and processes to let robots go where they’ve never gone before: the average American factory. We understand that general-purpose and generally-intelligent robots are going to be built in our lifetimes, and we’re combining human and artificial intelligence to lead the charge. As an AI software company who deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, on state-of-the-art hardware, every line of code written at Tutor has a direct impact on the global, physical economy. We’re seeking the thinkers, builders, and researchers who can help us responsibly deliver the future of automation.
Job Summary:
At Tutor, we believe the core bottleneck to massive robot proliferation is intelligence. Our staff builds novel robot capabilities at the software level, shipping improved behavior to our customer fleet every two weeks.
We are building the AI, data engine, infrastructure, and user interfaces for a new type of industrial robot. Our work requires creativity at the intersection of many areas of technical interest across user interfaces, distributed systems, compilers, perception, and applied math. This is only achievable though close collaboration and problem solving across our 15 person software team.
We work mostly in fully typed Python, with a strong emphasis on correctness and safety. Frontends are written in Typescript. We invest heavily in developer tooling.
Tutor strives to offer competitive salary compensation and outlier equity compensation for top candidates.
Our Culture:
We believe that something truly special can happen when talented, motivated people work together; at Tutor, every member of our team is empowered to have real impact in everything that they do. We’re characterized by both technical excellence and next-level collaboration and respect.
