Base Pay Range $125,000.00/yr - $180,000.00/yr
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
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.
