Figure is an AI robotics company developing a general-purpose humanoid robot designed to address global labor shortages and assist in everyday life. Our humanoid is built to operate effectively in both industrial and home environments, leveraging advanced AI to learn, adapt, and interact naturally with the world around it.
We are seeking a Systems Architect to own the active on-board safety solutions for our humanoid robot. The candidate must be highly technical, carry an extreme ownership mindset at all times, and have an aptitude for balancing systems level thinking with fine grained detail. You will be responsible for ensuring our robot always maintains safety around living things and can seamlessly integrate into environments that have no external safety systems (e.g. the home). This is not a powerpoint job and there is no textbook solution for our product: this role is hands-on and critical path to shipping our product at scale.
