About The Position

Tutor is an AI robotics company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, on state-of-the-art hardware. Every line of code written at Tutor has a direct impact on the global, physical economy. We are looking for thinkers, builders, and researchers who want to be part of the loop where research and deployment work in lockstep. The role involves being the face of Tutor across the Central U.S., supporting customer sites and keeping robots running. The work directly contributes to improving the technology through diagnosing failures, documenting repairs, and uncovering root causes. The position is available at two levels: Level II, where technicians independently manage preventative maintenance, troubleshooting, repairs, and customer support; and Level III, which includes these responsibilities plus serving as the regional escalation point, handling the hardest diagnostics, and mentoring Level II technicians. The company values mindset over credentials, prioritizing self-direction, accountability, strong customer instincts, and a passion for solving technical problems.
