You will collaborate with world-class AI and robotics experts, own end-to-end initiatives, and drive AI-native adoption across product, engineering, marketing, and operations while working in-office five days a week.

• RoboForce AI-Native Operating System — Build RoboForce's internal AI-native operating system, including agents, automations, workflows, templates, and internal tools, from prototype to production.
• High-Leverage Opportunities — Identify where AI can create 3× leverage across the company. Prototype quickly, measure impact, scale what works, and kill what doesn't.
• Workflow Adoption — Drive AI agent adoption across AI, software, hardware, marketing, operations, recruiting, BD, and more by embedding AI into daily workflows.
• AI-native Champion Program — Lead the cross-functional AI Champion network to capture, spread, and operationalize the best AI-native practices across teams.

• AI-Native Infrastructure — Partner with engineering and IT on connectors, permissions, local model hosting, monitoring, and secure deployment.
• Technical Chief of Staff Execution — Turn ambiguous AI-native priorities into clear systems, owners, workflows, and execution rhythms.
• In-Office Collaboration — Work in-office 5 days a week to enable high-bandwidth collaboration, rapid iteration, and direct access to teams.
