Job description

About Perceptyne

Perceptyne is a deep-tech robotics startup building AI-powered semi-humanoid robots for automating dexterous and intelligent tasks on industrial shopfloors. By integrating AI into the automation pipeline, Perceptyne’s robots unlock a range of advanced capabilities that were previously considered challenging or impractical—empowering customers to achieve more. We work closely with organizations in areas of electronics product assembly, Automotive assembly lines, warehouse operations etc. to help them realize their automation goals. We are building technology that will push the boundary of robotics as we know it today!

How is it like to work at Perceptyne?

At our core, we like to solve customer problems, build things, evangelize great ideas, and we are grounded. At Perceptyne, we greatly value these dichotomies:

• Having experience while not losing a first principles approach.
• Having a large vision while not losing attention to detail
• Working on disruptive tech while hitting the market ASAP
