  • High self-motivation with strong interpersonal skills and ability to work independently across time-zones
  • Curiosity, a passion for engineering, and an eagerness to apply cutting edge technology to help us evolve our products and deliver novel solutions to our customers
  • Experience collaborating with China-based teams is highly preferred.
  • Mandarin language proficiency is a plus.

In Return You Can Expect:
  • To work on the Innovation organization leading the technology roadmap of a top robotics company.
  • To work on the cutting edge of robotics with the largest installed base of consumer robots
  • To be welcomed as an integral part of a team dedicated to building robots
