We combine voice AI, perception, and behavior systems so robots can understand people and respond naturally.We are a small, hands-on team based in San Francisco, working across software, hardware, design, and research to turn new capabilities into robots people can interact with today.We care about thoughtful craft, fast iteration, and shipping real systems into the world.Robots with SoulsYep, you read that right.Robots are here, but they ship with no software. They’re all mute, deaf, and blind out of the box. The only way to get the robot to do anything is to write code. This is insane.We want robots to behave like in the movies: proactive, caring, aware.The roleNo role fits? Some of the best people never fit a listing. If you’re clearly one of us — you build, you craft, you care — write in anyway.Tell us what you’d own. The more specific, the better. We’ve hired people into roles we hadn’t thought to open.What you’ll doDefine the job: what you’d own, why it matters, why you.Bring a skill we didn’t know we needed.Make us wonder how we ever shipped without you.What’s neededThere are no requirements — that’s the point. But the pattern holds:Proof. You’ve made things. Show them.Ownership. You don’t wait to be told — you see what’s missing and build it.Fun. Whatever your craft is, you’d do it anyway.Bonus pointsWeird.
