Tutor Intelligence is hiring an Electrical Engineer for Robotics to ideate, prototype, iterate, deploy, and scale new robot electrical systems with a focus on power electronics and PCB design and firmware. You’ll work on motor control boards, power distribution boards, battery management systems, actuator integration, and sensor integration in a hands-on onsite role in Watertown, MA. At Tutor, impact matters more than titles and everyone in R&D is a Member of Technical Staff MoTS with levels determined through the interview process. To stand out, show solid PCB and power electronics experience, a track record of shipping hardware, creativity, and the ability to push projects forward, plus a genuine willingness to adapt as needs change. Include concrete project links, quantify outcomes, and demonstrate collaboration to illustrate you’ll thrive in a fast, iterative environment.
About Tutor
We believe general-purpose, generally-intelligent robots will be built in our lifetimes. Robots will work in our factories, move our goods, walk on our streets and eventually be in our homes. To build that future, research and deployment must work in lockstep: real-world operation must make the technology better and better technology must make deployment easier. We're looking for the thinkers, builders, and researchers who want to be part of that loop.
As an AI robotics company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, on state-of-the-art hardware, every line of code written at Tutor has a direct impact on the global, physical economy.

About Our Roles & Titles
At Tutor, we believe great engineers and researchers are defined by what they build and the impact they have — not where they sit in an org chart or what title they have. Therefore, everyone in our R&D org holds the title Member of Technical Staff (MoTS). Our job postings use standard titles so you can find us, but if you join Tutor, you'll be a MoTS — with a level that is determined through the interview process.
That also means we hire people, not slots. Work at Tutor evolves every quarter, and we set the expectation of flexibility from day one — it's common for people to start on one thing and shift to another based on where the team needs them most. A high technical bar across the board is what makes that flexibility possible: it's what allows people to contribute meaningfully whatever problem they take on.
