Apptronik is seeking a

to serve as the technical lead for Apollo’s upper body.

This is a high-visibility leadership role responsible for the torso, head, and arm assemblies.

You will own the complete lifecycle—architecture, design, integration, and verification—of the upper body stack.

This position requires a rare blend of deep kinematic expertise and the ability to solve extreme "packaging" challenges, where high-performance compute, high-density batteries, and sensitive perception sensors must coexist within a compact, dynamic, and thermally-constrained frame.

Finally, you will be responsible for translating visionary industrial design into high-fidelity, functional A-surfaces.
