Build software tools and infrastructure for Atlas humanoid robot behavior development, spanning data pipelines, ML training, experiment evaluation, simulation, diagnostics, dashboards, and deployment. Analyze robot-run failures, improve policy and data visibility, support hardware and simulation environments, and maintain reliable testing and CI/CD workflows. Collaborate with research scientists, ML engineers, data operations teams, and robot demonstrators to accelerate the collect-train-evaluate cycle.

Lead mechanical design and industrialization of high-performance electromechanical actuators from architecture to mass production. Provide technical leadership, CAD and drawing completion, GD&T and tolerance analysis, supplier/manufacturing collaboration, FMEAs and validation planning, and mentor design engineers to meet performance and reliability targets.

Lead mechanical design and production release of high-performance robotic actuator products for humanoid platforms. Provide technical leadership from architecture through manufacturing, oversee CAD and drawing packages, apply GD&T and tolerance analysis, optimize designs for assembly and reliability, manage technical risks through FMEAs and validation planning, and mentor design engineers. Collaborate with suppliers, manufacturing teams, and cross-functional technical groups to deliver robust electromechanical assemblies at scale.

Leads the enterprise CX strategy and portfolio roadmap, managing product, technical program management, and development teams. Drives customer journey productization, serviceability, operational scaling, cross-functional alignment, rapid prototyping, AI initiatives, and Salesforce tooling. Partners with executive leadership, Product, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, BizOps, Data Science, and PMO teams to mature CX from onboarding through service and support.

18-month rotational development program building robotics software and infrastructure. Work across product and R&D, contributing to robot, cloud, desktop, and mobile systems. Gain mentoring, structured learning, and hands-on experience in a fast-paced software environment, then transition into a permanent engineering role.

Design and implement teleoperation and human-robot interaction systems for humanoid robots. Build and evaluate VR/motion-capture/mixed-reality interfaces, integrate low-latency hardware/software, collect and analyze demonstration data, write maintainable C++ and Python code, and support end-to-end teleoperation and learned policy demonstrations.

Lead demand and supply planning for robotics products: build forecasts, manage inventory and safety stock, maintain ERP/MRP data integrity, run scenario planning, partner cross-functionally, and create Tableau dashboards to improve forecast accuracy and inventory health.

Develop real-time SLAM and perception-based state estimation for humanoid hardware, build offline multi-view and neural 3D reconstruction pipelines, integrate large VLM/VLA models with 3D spatial perception, and write production-quality C++/Python research code for spatial AI.

The Associate Director leads cross-disciplinary teams in developing robotic systems, manages requirements and interfaces, and drives best practices in Systems Engineering.

Develop and manage a sales pipeline for the Spot product line, build customer relationships, qualify leads, perform demos, close deals, support trade shows and sales materials, and coordinate with partners and government customers.

Serve as a strategic HR partner to senior leaders across corporate functions, advising on organizational effectiveness, change management, workforce planning, talent reviews, succession, leadership development, employee relations and investigations, performance coaching, and people analytics. Drive integrated HR solutions with TA, Total Rewards, and L&D, ensure legal and policy compliance, mitigate people-related risks, and scale HR programs to support growth.

Provide technical support for Boston Dynamics robots, payloads, servers, and software. Diagnose, troubleshoot, reproduce, fix, and debug electro-mechanical and networked systems.
