Robotics Lead/ System Architect 机器人研发负责人&架构师
At Mentee Robotics, we are redefining humanoid automation with an AI-first approach - combining perception, reasoning, and dexterous manipulation into fully autonomous systems that continuously learn and adapt. 在 Mentee Robotics,我们以 AI 优先的理念重新定义人形机器人自动化——将感知、推理与灵巧操作融合为能够持续学习与自适应的全自主系统。 We are now expanding with a new robotics Engineering Center in China, working hand-in-hand with our engineering teams in headquarters. Its mission: to rapidly develop our next-generation full-size humanoid and bring it to life - a walking, working platform that becomes the foundation of our next generation of products. This is a small, senior, hands-on team where speed of iteration is the core value. 我们正在中国设立全新的机器人工程中心,与总部的工程团队紧密协作。其使命是:快速研发我们下一代全尺寸人形机器人并使其落地——一个能行走、能工作的平台,成为我们下一代产品的基础。这是一支精干、资深、亲力亲为的团队,迭代速度是其核心价值。 We are looking for a Robotics Lead to own the architecture and delivery of our humanoid robot end to end. You will set the technical direction, make the hard system-level trade-offs, and act as the integration authority across mechanical, electrical, embedded, control, and AI teams - while keeping the program moving at prototype speed. 我们正在寻找一位机器人开发团队负责人,全面负责我们人形机器人的架构与端到端交付。你将确定技术方向、做出艰难的系统级权衡,并作为机械、电气、嵌入式、控制与 AI 团队之间的集成决策者——同时保持项目以原型速度推进。
