Job Description

Logistics is the newest industry focus sector for TX has been working since 2021, and now is rapidly growing with multiple projects deployed since 2024. This is an opportunity to be part of a expanding projects combined with some new projects that has to be built from scratch and support in building a new robot application.

The most exciting part is that, this work will be tightly combined with intelligent robots that Telexistence is building fully in-house, which consists of in-house made HW, SW (from motion planning to AI), and System application.

We strongly believe by developing all in-house would benefit to a better UX to the customer, hence believe our products developed so far give a large impact to the logistics warehouse market.

As VP of System Applications (Logistics Robotics), you will own the technology and organizational strategy for our robot and logistics operation platform end-to-end — from cloud-hosted services down to the applications that run in the warehouse and on the robot itself. You will set technical direction, build and lead the team responsible for delivering it, and be accountable for the business outcomes of your organization: budget, hiring, delivery, and cross-functional alignment across the company.

You will work across 3 major components in our system:

  1. Logistics operation application (including robots, and autonomous vehicles)
  2. Operation management system (Cloud infra + Web app to manage the robot and warehouse)
  3. Robot GUI (local web server running in the robot), which varies from manipulators to automated forklifts (AGFs)

This role requires a leader with deep, hands-on technical credibility across both frontend and backend development, with hands on experience in designing and deploying full solution (architecture, UX design, deployment). The role requires strong expertise in C# (.NET) and cloud platforms, Azure in particular — combined with proven experience managing engineering teams, owning solution decisions, and operating as a business leader within a larger organization.

Team & Platform Context

We develop using C# (.NET) for both backend and edge communication services to ensure unified development across systems. Our cloud infrastructure runs on Azure, and robots connect to cloud services through standard IoT/communication protocols. Your organization will work across this full stack — from frontend UI to backend services to cloud deployment — to deliver seamless cloud-to-edge operations.

About Telexistence

“TELEXISTENCE” is a concept that was first proposed in 1980 by Dr. Susumu Tachi, Professor Emeritus of the University of Tokyo and the chairman of TX inc, which refers to the notion of humans being in a place other than where he or she actually exists and being able to act freely in that remote environment – essentially expanding the presence of human beings – as well as the technological systems that make this possible.

Our mission at TX inc is to change robotics, change structures, and change the world.

テレイグジスタンス(TELEXISTENCE/遠隔存在)とは、TX incの創業者の一人でTX会長でもある東京大学名誉教授 舘暲氏が1980年に世界で初めて提唱した、人間が、自分自身が現存する場所とは異なった場所に実質的に存在し、その場所で自在に行動するという人間の存在拡張の概念であり、また、それを可能とするための技術体系です。 TX incのミッションは、ロボットを変え、構造を変え、世界をかえることです。
