Developer Relations (DevRel)

Menlo • San Francisco, CA

3d • Hybrid

About The Position

Menlo Research is an Applied R&D lab building Asimov, an open-source humanoid robot platform, and the full software stack that powers it. Our mission is to make humanoid labor economically viable, turning software into physical labor at scale. We build across the full stack: hardware architecture, locomotion, autonomy, simulation, and infrastructure. We move fast, ship to real robots, and open-source everything we can. If you want your work to matter beyond a paper or a demo, this is the place. The Role We are looking for a Developer Relations to be the public face of Asimov in the builder community. This is a hybrid role, part hands-on robotics and part developer evangelism. You will assemble and maintain Asimovs, tune the policies that make them move, build demos and skills on the Menlo Platform, and then take that work on the road as talks, workshops, and content. You are equally at home with a torque wrench and a keynote, and your job is to make the open humanoid stack impossible for engineers to ignore.

Requirements

• Highly interdisciplinary and hands-on: you can assemble and maintain a real robot and debug a VLA training run in the same breath
• A track record of curiosity and a real drive to learn well outside your own domain
• An existing public body of work, blogs, talks, an engaged following, that shows you can turn deep technical work into content engineers actually want to read and watch
• A contagious passion for robotics that turns enthusiasts and tinkerers into serious developers
• A bias toward collaboration, always finding a way to work with everyone in the ecosystem

Nice To Haves

• Background as a mechatronics engineer or robotics hacker
• Experience with locomotion, imitation learning, or world models such as JEPA
• Experience running community programs, hackathons, or developer events
• Contributions to open-source robotics or ML projects

Responsibilities

• Assemble, bring up, and maintain Asimov units in our labs and at customer sites
• Service and support customer robots in the field, and turn what you learn into product feedback
• Build demos, robot skills, and policies on the Menlo Platform that show what Asimov can really do
• Run hardware and software workshops that get engineers building on Asimov fast
• Represent Menlo publicly through live demos, talks, and technical content that grow our developer community
• Create blogs, videos, and social content that build a following around the open humanoid stack

Benefits

• If you're excited about a role but don't meet every bullet, we still encourage you to apply.
• Menlo Research is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of any legally protected characteristic.
• Menlo provides reasonable accommodations during the application process. If you need one, please let your recruiter know.
