But, nearly nine out of ten American factories and warehouses don’t have a single robot. Tutor Intelligence is changing that.\nWe build robots that go straight into real factories and warehouses, to do real work, with real impact. Our robot Cassie does back-breaking work, moving boxes, pallets, and bulk goods for family-owned manufacturers to some of the largest brands in the world. Our robot Sonny does handwork, using two arms to achieve human-like dexterity in picking and packing. Every robot learns on the job, and each one we deploy makes the next one more capable, more affordable, and faster to put to work.\nFounded at MIT and headquartered in Watertown, MA, we do it all in-house: the robotics hardware, the machine learning, and the field deployment and service. We’re a team of researchers, engineers, technicians, operators, and sellers who love building things and solving hard problems.\nOur mission is grand: robots everywhere, for the common good, raising the standard of living across North America, and then the world.\nThe Role\nOur hardware engineers design, build, and test robots in the same building, often in the same afternoon. That only works when the shop works: the part is where the system says it is, the tool is on the wall, and this morning's delivery is already in the building and unpacked, and the space is clean.\nWe are looking for the person who owns that. You will run the day-to-day of our R&D shop, the Garage: its storage, inventory, tools and equipment, some purchasing, receiving, and layout. You report to the Hardware Engineering Manager. You will work with the Engineering Manager to own and adapt the space as our needs change and grow.\nThe core idea is simple: things without a home do not get put away. Your first job is to give everything in the shop a home, make it obvious, and keep it true.\nEveryone keeps the Garage clean. Engineers own their benches and their messes. You set the standard, keep shared spaces in shape and help others meet the standard.\nNo degree is required, and you do not need to be an engineer. You do need to be comfortable tinkering and wrenching, and excited to work around 3D printers, electronics, CNC machines, and robots.\nRequirements\nWhat you will own\nGive every tool, part, material, and project a labeled home, and set the pattern engineers copy for their\nPlan the layout as the team grows; order, receive, and assemble furniture, workbenches, and racks.\nHave tools, a computer, a desk, and a workspace ready for every new engineer on day one.\nBuy shop supplies and keep consumables stocked before anyone is blocked.\nManage the reciept of larger orders like furniture or components that come crated or on pallets\nKeep tools organized and working, and maintain the 3D printers, CNC machine, and other shop equipment.\nWillingness to run the CNC occasionally for small jobs. We will teach you.\nSet a clear, visible cleanliness standard with simple daily or weekly routines the whole team follows.\nKeep shared areas, storage, and the robot testing space clean yourself, and nudge people back to the standard. When something keeps getting left out, fix its home first.\nPurge hardware we no longer need on a regular schedule: confirm with the owning engineer, sell what has value, recycle the rest.\nManage teardown of retired robots, recovering the parts worth keeping.\nHandle scrap, recycling, and removal of bulk material like crates, pallets, and scrap metal.\nWho you are\nExtremely organized and detail-oriented.\nHands-on. You would rather build the shelf and label the bins today than write a plan for it.\nWarm and direct. You assume good intent, and you can tell a busy engineer their bench has slipped in a way that feels like help.\nA systems builder who knows the difference between a system people use and one they work around.\nComfortable with hand and power tools, and able to tell a fastener, a connector, and a piece of stock apart.\nAble to lift 40+ lbs, operate a pallet stacker, and work around robots and machine tools.\nWilling to pitch in when something lands outside your scope.\nNice to haves\nExperience running a stockroom, tool crib, makerspace, or lab.\nHands-on experience with 3D printers, electronics, CNC machines, or sheet metal.\nShipping, receiving, and freight experience; pallet jack or forklift certification.\nPurchasing experience (McMaster-Carr, Digi-Key, and similar).\nFamiliarity with inventory or MES software; ION is a plus.\nExperience with equipment teardown, salvage, or reselling surplus.\nA track record of building your own organization solutions.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4670,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Robotics AI","Industrial Robotics","Robotic Software & Control Systems"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-23T01:22:28Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 3","filings_12m":3,"filings_prev_12m":1,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":137500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":27,"expected_fill_days":135,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-02T06:13:15Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":80000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/tutor-intelligence-shop-steward","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/tutor-intelligence-shop-steward.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-02T09:15:26Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":12907,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-03T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":5788},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=5788"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ftutor-intelligence-shop-steward"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ftutor-intelligence-shop-steward"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ftutor-intelligence-shop-steward"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/tutor-intelligence-shop-steward\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ftutor-intelligence-shop-steward"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3123477}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"tutorintelligence.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3123477},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
