Head of Humanoid Robotics (Software Focus) Base Salary: $300,000 – $500,000 Location: Silicon Valley, CA (Onsite) Industry: Advanced Manufacturing & Embodied AI
We are pioneering the next era of intelligent manufacturing. As Head of Humanoid Robotics (Software Focus), you will lead the development of next-generation humanoid robots that will transform garment production and industrial sewing automation through advanced software intelligence.
This high-impact leadership role offers the opportunity to shape the core intelligence of humanoid systems capable of performing complex, dexterous tasks — from fabric handling and precise manipulation to full garment assembly — in real factory environments. Software strategy and innovation will be driven from our Silicon Valley hub, while hardware development and large-scale manufacturing are based in Asia.
Define and own the software strategy, technical roadmap, and system architecture for humanoid robotics, with deep focus on motion control, perception, planning, manipulation, reinforcement learning, and whole-body intelligence.
Build, lead, and scale a world-class U.S.-based engineering team, recruiting and mentoring top talent in AI and robotics software.
Solve critical technical challenges to enable reliable, high-dexterity performance on deformable materials like fabrics, including adaptive behaviors in dynamic, real-world conditions.
Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (AI, mechanical, controls, and manufacturing) to deliver fully integrated humanoid systems ready for industrial deployment.
Set the strategic vision for AI-powered humanoid automation in manufacturing, driving the shift toward flexible, labor-efficient production lines.
