Adventurers wanted

We're looking for ML researchers, robotics engineers, and software developers, looking to pioneer the next generation of physical embodied intelligence.

We're a small team of engineers and researchers from Tesla AI, Meta FAIR, Xiaomi, and MILA.

We work 18 hours a day, 7 days a week. Most of us live, eat, and work at our facility. Hard problems, failures, and long hours don't deter us. While others talk, we ship.

We're driven by our belief that general-purpose robots are possible, and we must open-source it to everyone.

In the last six months, we've trained state-of-the-art machine-learning models on our training infrastructure, developed the operating system, designed and manufactured 2 humanoid robots.

In the next six months, we will be pushing the boundary on whole-body and manipulation models and manufacturing our hardware at scale.

Who we're looking for

Our goal is to build a world-class team in cutting-edge engineering, research, and product.

Show us your GitHub, your projects, and your competition wins. We love people who're already involved with our open-source communities.

Prove your skills through one of these paths:

Open roles (3)

All roles are on-site in Palo Alto, CA, USA. People currently enrolled in college are encouraged to drop out.
