NEOヒューマノイドロボットにAIを統合するためのプラットフォームAPIやデータインフラを構築します。5年以上のソフトウェアエンジニアリング経験が必須であり、特に本番環境でのML・AIシステム構築の実績が求められます。PythonおよびJavaScript/TypeScriptを用いた拡張性の高いソフトウェア開発が中心です。Applied AIチームの一員として、研究者や製品エンジニアと連携し、プロジェクトを主導します。
We’re building humanoid robots that work in home - doing the chores, handling the tasks, and giving people their time back. Simple, but it’s not.
To do this right, we have to solve robotics, AI, manufacturing - at the same time, at scale, in a form factor that has to be safe enough to live with your family. If you’re inspired by this, you’ll thrive here. We’ve been at this since 2014 and we’re at the point where the hard problems are behind us and the hard work is in front of us.
NEO is our flagship - a home robot designed to move, learn, and operate in the real world alongside real people. We’re not demoing it - we’re shipping it. We’re excited to meet you, if this excites you.
If you’ve spent your career working on problems that matter and want to see them actually reach the world - this is that moment. We’re scaling, we’re hiring with intention, and we need people who want to build something that will genuinely change how humans spend their time - safely creating abundance for all.
The Applied AI team owns all of the systems and services that integrate AI into the NEO platform including supporting data infrastructure for the World Model Lab. They ship platform APIs that allow our developers to collect data for fine-tuning, deploy inference at scale, and integrate AI elsewhere in the robot software stack.
Build platform APIs for high-quality training data for our new world model. This will involve APIs for data validation, auto-captioning/annotation, and validation. You’ll operate at high scale, support a wide variety of developers, and work closely with our internal World Model team to pretrain a new world model. You will also find opportunities to integrate AI in other systems elsewhere in the stack.

Team members at 1X who thrive here are builders. They move fast, own their work completely, and treat time like it’s the one thing you can’t get back - because it is. They say what they mean, finish what they start, and hold themselves to a standard before anyone has to ask. We push each other to be better, and we do it with honesty and respect.
