Global Recruitment Specialist - Humanoid Robotics

Humanoid is the first AI and robotics company in the UK, creating the world’s most advanced, reliable, commercially scalable, and safe humanoid robots. Our first humanoid robot HMND 01 is a next-gen labour automation unit, providing highly efficient services across various use cases, starting with industrial applications.

Our Mission:

At Humanoid we strive to create the world’s leading, commercially scalable, safe, and advanced humanoid robots that seamlessly integrate into daily life and amplify human capacity.

Vision:

In a world where artificial intelligence opens up new horizons, our faith in its potential unveils a new outlook where, together, humans and machines build a new future filled with knowledge, inspiration, and incredible discoveries. The development of a functional humanoid robot underpins an era of abundance and well-being where poverty will disappear, and people will be able to choose what they want to do. We believe that providing a universal basic income will eventually be a true evolution of our civilization.

Solution:

As the demands on our built environment rise, labour shortages loom. With the world’s workforce increasingly moving away from undesirable tasks, the manufacturing, construction, and logistics industries critical to our daily lives are left exposed. By deploying our general-purpose humanoid robots in environments deemed hazardous or monotonous, we envision a future where human well-being is safeguarded while closing the gaps in critical global labour needs.

• Identify and analyse the interfaces and interactions across systems/components boundaries.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (mechanical, software, and controls) to ensure system requirements are cohesive and achievable.
• Provide expertise and guidance to ensure our engineers understand the problem completely and stakeholder needs through effective coaching on Systems Engineering practices (early and later lifecycle stages)
• Ensure the appropriate level of concepting, modelling and simulation techniques are used across the lifecycle to inform architectures and solution options
• Track the status of requirements throughout the product development lifecycle.
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex system-level issues in collaboration with the development team.
• Maintain detailed documentation, including system architectures, requirement traceability matrices, and test reports.
• Ensure that designs comply with relevant standards and certifications.
• Participate in design reviews, brainstorming sessions, and strategic planning for new projects.

Expertise

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in systems engineering with a focus on software development for embedded systems, preferably in robotics, automation, or similar industries.
• Expertise in system engineering methodologies, including requirements management and validation.
• Experience with communication protocols (e.g., CAN, Ethernet, SPI, I2C)
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to convey complex ideas to diverse stakeholders.
• Proven leadership skills with the ability to drive projects and mentor team members.

Preferred
