Robotics Infrastructure Engineer

About Tutor

We believe robots are the biggest lever we have to making the physical world a better, more affordable place. But robots are a rounding error in our society: nearly nine out of ten American factories and warehouses don’t even have a single robot, and robots have yet to make their way into our homes or places of business.

Tutor Intelligence is changing that.

Tutor is a robotics research and deployment company, building generally capable robot hardware and artificial intelligence to enable robots to go where no robots have gone before. Sonny is a semi-humanoid robot with frontier dexterity approaching the human form. Cassie does back-breaking work, moving boxes, pallets, and bulk goods for businesses from family-owned manufacturers to some of the largest brands in the world. Tutor robots are manufactured at scale and operate as a network, combining the whole fleet’s learned experience to train ever more capable robot artificial intelligence.

Founded at MIT and headquartered in Watertown, MA, our team is full stack: we design and manufacture robot hardware, train our own models, work directly with the smallest and largest end-customers, and maintain our fleet across the United States. We’re a team of researchers, engineers, technicians, operators, and sellers who love building things and solving hard problems.

Our mission is grand: robots everywhere, for the common good, raising the standard of living across North America, and then the world.

The Role

Robotics Infrastructure Engineer: Systems, Infrastructure & Reliability

We build robots that run 24/7 in production environments. We're looking for a hands-on engineer to own the reliability, infrastructure, and developer tooling that keeps our fleet running and our engineering team fast. You'll split your time between robot-side systems work, cloud infrastructure, and building automation that multiplies the team's output.

A significant portion of this role involves working with AI coding agents. You'll direct autonomous agents to diagnose CI failures, triage production issues, run automated security and compliance checks, and execute multi-step engineering tasks. Knowing how to scope work for an agent, review its output critically, and build tooling that agents can use effectively is as important as writing the code yourself.

About the Work Style

This is a high-autonomy, high-output role. On a typical day you might direct an AI agent to triage overnight CI failures while you debug a production robot issue, then spend the afternoon migrating a package to a new build system. You'll write a lot of code, but you'll also write a lot of prompts — and the best candidates will see those as the same skill.

Why Tutor?

Whether you’re designing robots, closing deals, running deployments, or creating the processes that help us scale, your work doesn’t sit on a shelf. It shows up on real production floors, making physical work safer and more affordable.

Our team of 160+ is driven by curiosity and a genuine love of building. Everyone here takes real ownership, learns fast, and holds a high bar while having each other’s backs. If you love hard problems and creating things that didn’t exist before, you’ll fit right in.

Benefits

We take care of our team so they can do their best work. At Tutor, you’ll get:

• Fully employer-covered health insurance, so you’re protected without the premium.
• A managed 401(k) to help you plan for the future.
• Generous time off: unlimited PTO and all federal holidays off for full-time salaried employees, and 16+ days of accrued paid time off plus 1.5x pay on federal holidays for hourly employees.
• Regular in-office meals and team social events throughout the year.

As Tutor grows, so will our benefits. We’re continuing to invest in ways to support our team at work and beyond.
