About the Role
TAR builds construction robots to install solar at gigawatt scale. As Lead Robotics Engineer, you will be the founding technical lead for this discipline, owning the end-to-end architecture of TAR's robotic systems. You will transition the function from an early-stage effort to a rigorous engineering practice, establishing standards and processes while remaining hands-on with hardware and software. This is a senior player-coach role.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end architecture of TAR's robotic systems across mechanical, electrical, controls, and software integration.
- Design, build, and iterate on robotics hardware and software directly.
- Establish engineering practices including design review, testing, validation processes, and documentation standards.
- Identify and close critical gaps in the team's robotics capability.
- Mentor and grow the robotics engineering team, setting the technical bar and engineering culture.
- Partner with leadership to align robotics decisions with the broader product and deployment roadmap.
- Represent robotics engineering in cross-functional planning.
Requirements
- 7+ years in robotics engineering, spanning mechanical, electrical, and/or software and controls disciplines.
- Demonstrated experience building or leading a robotics engineering function from an early stage.
- Deep hands-on technical expertise across the robotics stack.
- Experience mentoring or informally leading other engineers.
- Comfortable operating with significant ownership and ambiguity.
- Strong communication skills.
