About the job

1X

Founded in 2015, 1X is pioneering the development of sophisticated humanoid robots tailored for household applications. Our vision is to create an abundant workforce through safe and intelligent humanoid technology.

We are committed to excellence in all our endeavors, tackling the toughest challenges in robotics alongside some of the brightest minds in the industry. Every component of our robots, from motor coils to artificial intelligence, is designed and manufactured in-house, showcasing our vertically integrated approach. At 1X, you will lead significant projects, receive recognition for your contributions, and be rewarded based on your performance.

At 1X Labs, our goal is to drive the science and technology that facilitate human-level, general-purpose humanoids.


We rigorously analyze the gap between current humanoid capabilities and the standards expected for human-level performance. This involves a deep dive into fundamental principles, taking innovative and often unconventional routes, developing groundbreaking technologies, and translating these advancements into tangible products. Our unique position allows us to transform research findings into market-ready solutions through our cohesive integration of materials, component design, systems engineering, and manufacturing.

Humanoids represent a highly integrated system where genuine progress occurs only when advancements in sensing, actuation, materials, control, and intelligence harmoniously evolve, pushed to their functional limits. 1X Labs is shaped by individuals who have extensive expertise in their respective fields, capable of reasoning confidently at these boundaries and engaging meaningfully with adjacent domains, understanding which constraints are truly significant.

You possess deep capabilities in your field, your intuition honed through years of tackling complex, tangible problems. Interdisciplinarity is not merely an identity for you; it is a natural outcome of mastery in systems where no single discipline suffices.

You thrive in environments that value technical depth, where ideas are rigorously tested against real-world applications, and research is only validated when it successfully reaches the market..
