Material Handling Specialist

About 1X

We're building humanoid robots that work in home - doing the chores, handling the tasks, and giving people their time back. Simple, but it's not.

To do this right, we have to solve robotics, AI, manufacturing - at the same time, at scale, in a form factor that has to be safe enough to live with your family. If you're inspired by this, you'll thrive here. We've been at this since 2014 and we're at the point where the hard problems are behind us and the hard work is in front of us.

NEO is our flagship - a home robot designed to move, learn, and operate in the real world alongside real people. We're not demoing it - we're shipping it. We're excited to meet you, if this excites you.

If you've spent your career working on problems that matter and want to see them actually reach the world - this is that moment. We're scaling, we're hiring with intention, and we need people who want to build something that will genuinely change how humans spend their time - safely creating abundance for all.

Your Charter

To create an abundant supply of physical labor through safe, intelligent humanoids, we have to first move materials safely, accurately, and on time. As a Materials Handler, you're the link between our supply chain and our production floor - ensuring engineering and manufacturing teams have exactly what they need, exactly when they need it, so NEO can be built and shipped without delay.
