About the company
Tutor Intelligence
Computer software · 11 to 50 employees
Tutor Intelligence builds AI robotics systems and deploys them into the facilities that need them. We believe research and deployment should improve each other: real-world operation reveals the problems worth solving, and better technology makes robots more useful.
What you'll do
- Own the technical approach and ongoing reliability of a major system supporting robot data collection and experimentation.
- Build and maintain robot-side and backend services, data pipelines, and tools that reduce operator effort and improve experiment throughput.
- Make system health, data completeness, sensor timing, and experiment progress observable; turn failures into actionable diagnostics.
- Improve deployment, configuration, testing, recovery, and rollback so changes and operations are repeatable.
- Diagnose incidents across device interfaces, Linux, networking, concurrency, and storage; deliver durable fixes and verify their effect.
- Prioritize work within team goals using evidence from researchers and operators, and communicate scope, risks, and tradeoffs.
- Improve engineering tools and runbooks, contribute useful technical reviews, and help colleagues operate and extend the system.
What you need
- Evidence of independently owning a substantial software system through design, deployment, operation, and difficult debugging.
- Strong Python software engineering, including maintainable code, automated tests, concurrency, and service interfaces.
- Practical Linux and networking knowledge, and experience deploying and operating services.
- Understanding of distributed-system failure modes, data integrity, and safe recovery from partial failures.
- Experience building observability and using it to diagnose incidents and improve reliability.
- Ability to work across unfamiliar system boundaries, define an approach to ambiguous problems, and collaborate with people who use the system daily.

Tutor Intelligence builds AI robotics systems and deploys them into the facilities that need them. We believe research and deployment should improve each other: real-world operation reveals the problems worth solving, and better technology makes robots more useful. Join a team where your designs, experiments, and code have a direct impact on physical systems.
Our Culture
We value technical excellence, collaboration, and respect. Engineers take ownership, make tradeoffs explicit, and help colleagues do better work. We move quickly through building, testing, and learning from what happens on the robot.
About the Role
Own the software that makes robot data collection and experimentation dependable. Your initial focus will be our robot data-collection operation: connecting robots, operators, data storage, and research workflows so the team can run experiments repeatedly and trust the resulting data.
You will define and deliver improvements across robot-side services, backend systems, telemetry, deployment, and operator tools. This is an autonomous individual-contributor role with significant system ownership, close collaboration with researchers and operators, and responsibility for maintaining what you ship.
