Sponsors, but it's cap-subject — you still face the weighted lottery (~45% per draw at Level III). Good if you win; have a cap-exempt backup on your list.

Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

16 transfer filings in the last year, covering 16 workers. 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

  • In this role, you will operate at the boundary between prototype and production, working directly with our humanoid robot to evaluate performance, root-cause failures, and improve behaviors.
  • You will be hands-on with hardware nearly every day, helping bring new customer workflows online and ensuring existing deployments remain reliable.

Responsibilities

  • Develop Behaviors for Humanoid Robots & Integrate into Workflows
  • Develop and maintain the core library of production-ready skills that form the foundation of customer workflows.
  • Deploy classical as well as modern robotics paradigms to implement robot skills to complete a variety of tasks in target domains
  • Build and maintain workflows using the robot's skill API.
  • Define what "production-ready" means for each skill or workflow and design the test plans and infrastructure to validate it.
  • Validate new skills and workflows both in simulation and on hardware before release.
  • You are curious about how autonomous robots work end-to-end, from low-level control to high-level task planning, and want to help bridge the gap between behavior design and real-world deployment.

Requirements

  • You have experience with Linux systems.
  • You have a B.S. or M.S. in Robotics, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • You are proficient in Python and write clean code.
  • You enjoy getting your hands dirty, iterating on hardware, and watching your work come to life in the field.
  • You have a strong sense of ownership and pride in the reliability of your work.

Nice to have

  • Prior experience scripting robot behaviors using state machines, behavior trees, or other control flow logic.
  • Understanding of robot manipulation, motion planning, and kinematics (e.g., familiarity with MoveIt framework).
  • Exposure to test-driven development, automated regression testing, and CI/CD workflows.
  • Experience operating autonomous robots in customer environments or real-world deployments.
  • These ranges may be modified in the future.
  • 401(k) Plan: Includes a 6% company match.
  • Relocation Assistance: Provided for eligible roles.
  • All of our roles are U.S.-based.

Skills

  • Script new skills using behavior trees, state machines, or task planners, defining control flow logic and behavior sequencing.
  • Prototype new skills and customer use cases to assess their feasibility.

Compensation

  • The final salary offered to a successful candidate will be dependent on several factors that may include but are not limited to: job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.

Benefits

  • Parental Leave: Generous paid parental leave programs.
