TLDR
Nontraditional role seeking builders and thinkers to ship projects in robotics, advancing human-robot interaction within a culture that values curiosity, creativity, and accountability.
Human Computer Lab is a robotics startup and research lab building expressive robots that feel alive and responsive. Our first robot, LeLamp, explores a new category of consumer robotics where everyday objects become interactive and help us reshape our attachment to technology.
Our goal is to push the frontier of human-robot interaction by making technology more legible, emotionally intuitive, and human-centered. We are building the foundation for a new generation of robots designed for everyday environments.
This isn’t a traditional role.
It’s a way for us to find people who are builders, thinkers, and genuinely interesting.
You might be:
Someone who ships projects for fun
Deep into software, hardware, design, or AI
Someone who just knows they should be working on something bigger
If you’re a fit, we’ll reach out and connect you directly with the team.
The early team becomes the DNA of the company. We set ourselves and others to a high standard, and we respond with kindness when things get hard but keep everyone accountable. This requires us to be curious, creative, and diverse in our thinking and approach.
We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and consider all qualified applicants regardless of race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status. Even if you don’t meet every single requirement, we encourage you to apply. Studies show that women and underrepresented groups often hold back unless they meet 100% of the criteria - we don’t want that to be the reason we miss out on great talent.
