Tutor Intelligence produces AI-powered warehouse robots that learn from real-world data and are offered through a Robot-as-a-Service model to automate complex supply-chain tasks.
The Company We believe general-purpose, generally-intelligent robots will be built in our lifetimes. Robots will work in our factories, move our goods, walk on our streets and eventually be in our homes. To build that future, research and deployment must work in lockstep: real-world operation must make the technology better and better technology must make deployment easier. We're looking for the thinkers, builders, and researchers who want to be part of that loop. As an AI robotics company that 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. Our Culture We believe that something truly special can happen when talented, motivated people work together; at Tutor, every member of our team is empowered to have real impact in everything that they do. We’re characterized by both technical excellence and next-level collaboration and respect. Perception Engineer As a Perception Engineer at Tutor Intelligence, you’ll design, build, and deploy perception systems across RGB, depth, LiDAR, and other sensing modalities. You’ll work on core problems in SLAM, segmentation, tracking, and grasp planning, helping turn real-world sensor data into reliable, production-ready autonomy. What You’ll Do Design and implement perception modules used in real-world robotic systems Own projects end-to-end, from early concept and prototyping through production deployment Work closely with Engineering, Operations, Product, and Leadership to define and ship solutions Improve system reliability, scalability, and observability in production environments Debug complex perception and systems-level issues across hardware and software Help shape technical direction, best practices, and team workflows as Tutor scales Who You Are 3+ years of experience in perception, robotics, or a closely related engineering role Strong foundations in computer vision, robotics, or related fields Comfortable writing production-quality code (e.g. C++, Python) and working with real sensor data Experience operating in fast-moving, resource-constrained environments Clear communicator who collaborates well across technical and non-technical teams Strong sense of ownership and a bias toward shipping meaningful work Genuine interest in robotics, AI, and solving hard real-world problems Nice to Haves Experience with SLAM, multi-sensor fusion, or manipulation / grasp planning Hands-on work with robots in production or fielded environments Prior startup experience, especially at early or growth-stage companies Exposure to 24/7 systems, operational tooling, or customer-facing deployments Interest in technical leadership, mentorship, or project ownership
