Really excited to be posting our FIRST Robotics hardware roles for OpenAI, including two very senior tech lead engineering (IC) roles and a TPM Manager.
In the race to build the next generation of robots, particularly humanoids, AI giants are making an audacious bet: that their mastery of artificial intelligence will unlock the secrets of physical automation. OpenAI, Tesla, and NVIDIA aren’t just writing code - they’re creating virtual worlds where digital robots learn and fail millions of times before their physical counterparts take a single step. While these tech titans are staking their ownership claim of the ‘robot mind,’ a more pressing question emerges: who will forge their bodies?
