The Company

Tutor Intelligence is building the technology and processes to let robots go where they’ve never gone before: the average American factory and warehouse. We understand that general-purpose and generally intelligent robots are going to be built in our lifetimes, and we’re not content to sit on the sidelines.

Founded by MIT alumni and backed with over $40M in funding by leading investors in AI and robotics, Tutor combines human and artificial intelligence to build something greater than the sum of its parts — a Tutor Intelligence. As an AI software company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, every line of code, process change, and decision at Tutor has a direct impact on the physical economy. We’re seeking thinkers, builders, and operators who want to help deliver the future of automation.

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

Culture

We believe great work happens when talented people collaborate with low ego and high trust. At Tutor, everyone is empowered to own meaningful problems and have real impact. We value technical excellence, intellectual honesty, thoughtful urgency, and respect for one another.

Compensation & Benefits

Competitive salary and meaningful equity

Fully employer-covered health and dental insurance

401(k)

Unlimited PTO

Regular in-office meals and team events

A collaborative, low-ego environment where people are trusted to do their best work

Tutor Intelligence is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to building a diverse and inclusive team.
