We believe general-purpose, generally-intelligent robots will be built in our lifetimes. Robots will work in our factories, move our goods, walk on our streets and eventually be in our homes. To build that future, research and deployment must work in lockstep: real-world operation must make the technology better, and better technology must make deployment easier. We're looking for the thinkers, builders, and researchers who want to be part of that loop.
Founded by MIT alumni and backed by over $40M from leading AI and robotics investors, we deploy real robotic systems directly into the facilities that power the physical economy. We don't just build robots — we build them, ship them, and keep them running.
We're looking for a hands-on Production Engineer (Electrical Design & DFX) who owns cables, harnesses, and the electrical package from the first prototype through volume production — and who makes sure that work is never the thing slowing Engineering down.
This role reports to the Head of Manufacturing and Supply Chain, with a dotted line to Hardware Engineering.
The role works in two phases. While a robot is in development, you're embedded with Hardware Engineering: building cables and harnesses, being meticulous about the CAD and the routing, selecting components and connectors, and ordering boards and parts so the EEs can keep designing. When the robot goes through NPI or an ECO, you move with it into Manufacturing: releasing drawings, supporting ordering, and clearing electrical issues on the floor. You are inline with the design as it happens, not a review gate after it's done.
This is not an advisory role. You open the CAD, you make the drawings, you build the first article, and you get it released. You'll spend most of your days with the hardware team, so fit with that group matters as much as the skill set.
Build alongside Engineering
Take prototypes to production
Design the electrical package
Fix the supply side
Make it stick on the floor
You love building things that didn't exist before, and you get real satisfaction from watching a design you finished get built by someone else without a single question.
You take ownership. Nobody has to tell you the harness drawing is late or the connector is wrong — you already saw it and you're already fixing it. Cabling and parts are your first priority, so they are never the reason the robot is late.
You stay curious. You want to know why a cable failed, not just replace it, and you're happy to learn from the technician who has built forty of them.
You hold a high bar and you're direct with your teammates when the design isn't ready, because you want the EEs, the floor, and the customer to win.
When the answer isn't obvious, you find the 80/20 path, make a smart call, and keep the product moving forward.
You never forget there's a customer on the other end of every robot, and a bad connector at a customer site is your problem.
We offer unlimited PTO and holidays. We host social events and maintain a collaborative, low-ego work culture where people are trusted to take ownership and solve real problems. Tutor is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applicants from all backgrounds.
