Why this role existsAt Tutor, we believe that we must innovate across the entire business to deliver on our mission. This means we're constantly rethinking how we develop, sell, manufacture, deploy, and support our rapidly-growing fleet. As a member of our technical staff, you'll rethink how we manufacture robots with process and software.
You will work closely with our manufacturing engineering leadership to determine the process you will codify. They will have opinions, and you must be willing to push back to find the right ideas to build on. You will build the tools with the support of production engineering and a centralized builder cohort, and you are responsible for building tools that get used. The floor will work differently month over month because of what you build, and your success will show up in build quality and punctuality.
What you'll do- Work in between manufacturing leadership and the tech lead of Tutor's wider system development to determine how we build robots today in the context of the wider organization
- Earn the trust of the entire manufacturing staff-you are building as much for the technicians assembling the robots as for the leadership planning the roadmap
- Generate a roadmap for manufacturing tooling and orchestrate its execution; you will be a builder and lead builders across the manufacturing organization
- Align your roadmap and execution with a cohort of like-missioned builders in other domains (e.g., customer support, GTM) to exchange ideas and ensure your tools and processes dovetail with what others are building
What you'll bring- The ability to map a complex operational process clearly and quickly. We'll provide the markers
- Experience influencing teams you don't formally manage. A tool is only as powerful as its users
- Humility. You will be building a lot of tooling for a large organization, and great ideas on paper don't always translate into practice. You bring an understanding that you are working to build the best product, not your own best ideas.
Nice to haves- Experience building software tools that operators used every day.
- Experience in robotics, electromechanical manufacturing, or automation
$130,000 - $200,000 a year
