Responsibilities

Engage senior decision-makers at robotics companies building the next generation of physical AI in mobile and service robotics, from startups to mid-sized players to established names.

Qualify, size, and close opportunities, leveraging the company’s technical, commercial, and partnership resources to increase win rates and accelerate deal closure.

Drive partnerships and deals from first contact through to close, owning the full deal cycle.

Operate as a standalone commercial engine inside a small, entrepreneurial team, with enough technical fluency to hold your own on how robotics works.

Team

You get in early on a market about to scale and help define how voice for mobile service robots is won.

This is a new business, so you shape the commercial playbook rather than inherit one. How we sell and partner is still being written, in large part by you.

You bring the autonomy of a start-up and the credibility of an established company to every conversation, with the capital, customer relationships, technology, and brand behind you.

Decisions come fast, obstacles get cleared, and you hold real authority over your part of the business.
