About the role
About Tutor Intelligence At Tutor Intelligence, we believe general-purpose, generally intelligent robots will be built in our lifetimes. We build and deploy AI-powered robots that solve real problems in the field, and our goal is 1,000+ robots across multiple platforms by 2028. Getting there means building test systems and production processes that scale without sacrificing quality or reliability, and without adding headcount every time volume goes up. The Role We're looking for a hardware engineer with deep electrical and electromechanical experience who wants to own how our robots are brought up, tested and built at scale. You understand how our robots work at the circuit and system level, challenge designs, and personally root-cause failures. Then you build the test systems and production processes that keep those failures from coming back. This is not a traditional manufacturing engineering role. We need someone who can open a schematic, put a scope on a board and find the problem, then make sure it never ships again. You also work AI-first. You use tools like Claude every day to write test scripts, analyze failure data, draft procedures and move faster than a traditional engineering team could. Your first mission: stop recurring failures. Find root cause, fix it permanently, and catch problems before they reach final test or the field.
