We believe robots are the biggest lever we have to making the physical world a better, more affordable place. But robots are a rounding error in our society: nearly nine out of ten American factories and warehouses don’t even have a single robot, and robots have yet to make their way into our homes or places of business.
Tutor Intelligence is changing that.
Tutor is a robotics research and deployment company, building generally capable robot hardware and artificial intelligence to enable robots to go where no robots have gone before. Sonny is a semi-humanoid robot with frontier dexterity approaching the human form. Cassie does back-breaking work, moving boxes, pallets, and bulk goods for businesses from family-owned manufacturers to some of the largest brands in the world. Tutor robots are manufactured at scale and operate as a network, combining the whole fleet’s learned experience to train ever more capable robot artificial intelligence.
Founded at MIT and headquartered in Watertown, MA, our team is full stack: we design and manufacture robot hardware, train our own models, work directly with the smallest and largest end-customers, and maintain our fleet across the United States. We’re a team of researchers, engineers, technicians, operators, and sellers who love building things and solving hard problems.
Our mission is grand: robots everywhere, for the common good, raising the standard of living across North America, and then the world.
Tutor is hiring a Head of Company Operations to lead cross-functional operations at the leading robotics research and deployment company. The scope is massive and new: every domain of our work, from research and engineering to manufacturing, solutions, sales, and finance, through a period of rapid commercial growth as we take Cassie and Sonny into new workflows, sites, and markets. You will own how the company operates: one clear plan the whole company works toward, and the execution and change it takes to get there.
Strategic intent at Tutor comes from everywhere: the founders, the leaders of each function, and the people closest to the work. You will pull it together into one coherent plan with goals the whole company believes in, keep it current as priorities shift, and make sure it gets done. When something gets stuck between teams, you make the call and drive it to resolution. When the company needs a big change, like entering a new market, standing up a new site, or reshaping how teams work, you make the case and lead it through.
You report to the CEO, sit on the leadership team, and own the operating plan we take to our board. You work as a peer to the leaders who run each function: you set goals with each of them, own the scorecard the company runs on, and have a formal say in how those leaders are evaluated. We are looking for an operator who has owned company outcomes at a scaling company: someone who has run the operating rhythm, understands how revenue and finance fit together, and is as comfortable on the factory floor as in a board planning meeting.
Whether you’re designing robots, closing deals, running deployments, or creating the processes that help us scale, your work doesn’t sit on a shelf. It shows up on real production floors, making physical work safer and more affordable.
Our team of 160+ is driven by curiosity and a genuine love of building. Everyone here takes real ownership, learns fast, and holds a high bar while having each other’s backs. If you love hard problems and creating things that didn’t exist before, you’ll fit right in.
We take care of our team so they can do their best work. At Tutor, you’ll get:
As Tutor grows, so will our benefits. We’re continuing to invest in ways to support our team at work and beyond.
