Product ManagementProduct Manager

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.

We’re looking for an ambitious, externally-facing generalist to help drive commercialization on our flagship product — Cassie. Technical aptitude prefered. In this role, you’ll be responsible for the business growth of the Cassie product lines and will be leading high-leverage threads that shape the company's future: identifying adjacent markets to expand into, developing partnerships, collaborating with financing sources, and helping leadership turn loose ideas into executable opportunities. This is a creative, fast-paced role heavy on communication, persuasion, and structured problem-solving. You’ll spend most of your time talking to external stakeholders, crafting narratives, selling possibilities, writing a massive volume of clear communication, and keeping complex exploratory threads on track. Not a process role, not an internal analyst role — this is closer to venture creation inside a robotics company.

  • Own the product roadmap and communicate the sequence of markets we will expand into over time.
  • Do technical solutioning (mostly hardware reasoning but sometimes software reasoning) and sales as needed -- reason through technical customer requirements and thinking through high-level engineering ways to solve them or work around them.
  • Own the financial fundamentals of the product line (P&L, unit economics, margins, etc.)
  • Coordinate with customers, partners, investors, vendors, and domain experts to move conversations and projects forward.
  • Gather technical input from engineering teams and translate it into clear external communication and realistic opportunity framing.
  • Maintain momentum across multiple threads through structured communication, scheduling, and consistent follow-through.
  • Produce a high volume of clear written communication, including emails, briefs, one-pagers, and meeting recaps.
  • Identify creative angles and approaches to advance new product concepts, partnerships, or commercial opportunities.
  • Support leadership on high-impact special projects that span commercial, product, and strategic domains.
  • Math, physics, engineering degree
  • 1–4 years in a fast-paced environment (consulting, VC, IB, startup, strategy, technical, or similar).
  • Technical background: engineering degree/minor or technical coursework preferred, not required.
  • Strong client-facing instincts: able to sell, persuade, negotiate, and build relationships with external stakeholders.
  • Exceptionally organized, capable of managing many concurrent threads without losing track.
  • Excellent written communication: concise, precise, high-volume email and message writing.
  • Creative and entrepreneurial mindset; ability to ideate, frame opportunities, and navigate ambiguity.
  • High ownership and reliability; comfortable taking vague ideas and structuring them into concrete next steps.
  • 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.
