Sourcing and production were built in-house from scratch, and in our first 12 months, on that line, we built and shipped 200+ robots (OpenARM and OpenYAM manipulators, paired with a custom Linux Devbox, and teleop kits, cameras, and end effectors) to customers like NVIDIA, Qualcomm, Toyota, Google, Cobot, and Path Robotics in 60+ countries, while we grew from two founders to 30 people across three offices. A typical req for a role like this might ask for 8–10+ years and prior "Head of Hardware" experience; we're looking for someone with 4–6 unusually fast growing years spent as the strong #2 to a senior hardware leader on a real, shipped robotics or hardware product — someone who watched how the materials, actuation, and manufacturability calls actually got made, made a growing share of them personally, but never had the whole program handed to them.
