Description
About you and this role:
Robust AI is a fast-growing, early-stage startup founded in 2019 by an unsurpassed team of veterans in robotics, AI and business. We are a collaborative group with a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives, seeking talented individuals who are just as excited about robotics and AI as we are! Help us redefine the very foundation of robotics and build robots that are smart, collaborative, robust, safe, flexible and genuinely autonomous.
As Principal Safety Systems Engineer at Robust AI, you will lead safety strategy for a small, fast-paced team designing and deploying the next generation of warehouse robotic systems. You will own the safety and compliance roadmap end-to-end — setting technical direction, driving decisions independently, and representing safety in front of customers, regulators, and leadership. Working closely with engineering, you'll drive testing, influence design decisions at the architecture level, and manage relationships with outside certification bodies. This role is best suited for someone who has done this before, is comfortable operating with significant autonomy in an early-stage environment, and can pivot effectively as priorities shift. The base pay range for this role is between $180,000 and $220,000, dependent on your skills, qualifications, and experience.
