Robotics Software Engineer

Tutor Intelligence
Watertown, MA Full Time
POSTED ON 4/26/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/25/2026

The Company

Tutor Intelligence is building the technology and processes to let robots go where they’ve never gone before: the average American factory. We understand that general-purpose and generally-intelligent robots are going to be built in our lifetimes, and we’re combining human and artificial intelligence to lead the charge. As an AI software company who deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, on state-of-the-art hardware, every line of code written at Tutor has a direct impact on the global, physical economy.


The Role

Are you tired of writing incremental code for massive CRUD web-apps? Do you want to build systems from the ground up that effect change in the physical world, not just the digital one? At Tutor, we are motivated by atoms not electrons: every line of code you write has a real world impact at the foundation of our global economy, solving the core technical problems to evolve humanity and society to the next level.


Tutor Intelligence builds software to enable ordinary robots to achieve extraordinary things. As a robotics software engineer, your work lies at the center of this challenge, orchestrating real time robot code, optimization systems for motion planning, machine learning systems, data labeling frontends, and optimizing compilers across a myriad of platforms. Our engineers flex up and down the robotics stack from microcontroller firmware to cloud infrastructure, charging at technical problems from any and all angles.


At the core, we are looking for motivated and curious individuals who have exceptionally strong programming fundamentals. Experience in specific technical stacks or with robotics/ML are helpful but not requirements: whatever shape your skill set is, Tutor engineers shape their own roles to best tackle the frontier of robotics development.
