Robotics Forward Deployed Engineer

The Company Tutor Intelligence is building the technology and processes to let robots go where they’ve never gone before: the average American factory and warehouse. We understand that general-purpose and generally intelligent robots are going to be built in our lifetimes, and we’re not content to sit on the sidelines. Founded by MIT alumni and backed with over $40M in funding by leading investors in AI and robotics, Tutor combines human and artificial intelligence to build something greater than the sum of its parts — a Tutor Intelligence. As an AI software company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, every line of code, process change, and decision at Tutor has a direct impact on the physical economy. The Role We're looking for a technically credible, customer-oriented engineer to own a portfolio of customer sites running Tutor robots in production. You'll be the primary partner for each of your sites — the person their operations, engineering, and maintenance teams call first when something matters — and you'll be accountable for the operational and technical success of those deployments over time. This isn't a traditional customer success role, and it isn't core product engineering. You won't own the product roadmap or build new robotic capabilities — that's R&D. But you will write code: the scripts, tooling, dashboards, and playbook [... source excerpt omitted ...] ions into things that run themselves. The point of the job is to make your sites need you less over time, and to solve the hard, multi-factor problems that no playbook covers yet. You'll develop deep working knowledge of how our robots actually behave in the real world, diagnose issues across software, mechanical, and process dimensions, and partner with engineering to drive the deeper fixes — bringing the field context, prioritization, and validation that makes those fixes right. The role is also genuinely relationship-driven. The customers in your portfolio will know you, trust you, and rely on you. You'll spend real time on-site at your facilities, remote time on diagnosis, [... source excerpt omitted ...] ustomers' engineering and operations leaders. Your insights from the field will directly shape our product roadmap. This role sits at the intersection of robotics, operations, and customer partnership — and the right person is energized by all three. Responsibilities Own a portfolio of customer sites end-to-end: be the primary technical partner for each, build deep trust with their operations, engineering, and maintenance teams, and be accountable for the operational and technical success of those deployments. Automate yourself out of the repetitive work. Convert recurring manual interventions into tooling, scripts, and playbooks that your customers and our remote team can run
