Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

1 transfer filing in the last year, covering 1 worker. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • Real-world robotics cannot be fully validated in simulation; physical hardware behavior and real-environment variability require hands-on QA judgment.
  • You will hire and mentor a QA team, define testing standards, and stay hands-on with critical validation - balancing automation with the physical testing our domain demands.

Responsibilities

  • People Management: Hire, develop, and retain a QA team.
  • Drive recruiting and foster a culture of intellectual honesty and psychological safety.
  • Release Validation & Benchmarking: Own and automate release checklists (inference server, station-side deployment). Run A/B testing for robotic tasks to measure success rates and latency. Manual validation where automation is not yet feasible.
  • AI Model Evaluation & Regression Testing: Design and execute evaluation pipelines that validate AI model and full-system performance across model, software, and hardware updates.
  • Define and track key metrics (task success rate, cycle time, generalization across environments), build automated regression benchmarks, and gate releases on evaluation results to prevent regressions from reaching production.
  • Physical Hardware QA & Integration: Validate real-robot behavior that simulation cannot cover - mechanical repeatability, sensor calibration drift, and edge cases on physical hardware.
  • Process & Documentation: Establish and maintain standard operating procedures (SOPs) for hardware and software validation
  • drive continuous process improvement.
  • Process & Documentation: Establish and maintain standard operating procedures (SOPs) for hardware and software validation; drive continuous process improvement.

Requirements

  • Technical Skills: Proficiency in Python.
  • Hardware QA: Hands-on experience with physical robot testing, hardware bring-up, or manufacturing QA - understanding failure modes that only appear on real hardware.
  • Experience with ML model evaluation, defining performance metrics for AI systems, or building automated regression pipelines for ML models.

Skills

  • Strong Linux administration skills and experience with IoT/edge device deployments.
  • Track record of adopting AI/LLM tools to accelerate QA workflows (test generation, bug triage, automation scaffolding).
  • Must actively seek out and integrate new AI tools.
  • Experience with computer vision metrics (image quality, depth validation, camera calibration).
  • Previous experience in a fast-paced startup environment.
  • Proficiency in Python.
  • Systems: Strong Linux administration skills and experience with IoT/edge device deployments.

Benefits

  • Align priorities with company vision, translate quality risks into business impact, and drive alignment across robotics, ML, and infrastructure teams.
  • Partner with developers to continuously expand CI coverage and
  • System Monitoring & Alerting: Use tools like Datadog and Grafana to track system health, identify performance regressions, and maintain observability across production environments.
  • Education: Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field.

Company info
