Our mission is to accelerate the advent of intelligent machines which empower humans to do what humans do best. And yet, nothing about what we're doing is easy. Some would call it irrationally hard. But ask yourself: what idea will be as impactful as the invention of the computer or the internet in the short run? Indubitably, robotics and machine learning. And yet a lot of robotics problems are extremely unconstrained problems that may take a while to get to market. By choosing a technically constrained problem in an almost unlimited market, our goal is to be the first company to scale intelligent robotics around the world. Once we succeed, Chef will change how we eat food and the number of robots in the world forever. If solving really hard problems alongside some of the most ambitious people in the world seems fun, we'd love to chat!
Our current team comprises of all Senior / Staff Engineers, Tech Leads, and Engineering Managers ex Cruise, Google, Nuro, Verb Surgical, Neuralink, Tesla, Zoox, Kitty Hawk, Yelp, Think Surgical, Facebook, Lockheed Martin, Built Robotics, and Strateos
These are the principles we come back to every single day. When we don't know how to make a decision, we always come back to principles.
Ask: is this product really 10x better than the status quo? If not, don't do it; big problems / markers are just as hard to solve as small problems / small markets.
We’re here to serve our customers and users. Go backwards from the customers and obsess after giving them the best experience possible.
If enough smart people are in a room together, we'll figure it out. Hire slow rather than to "fill a role."

We have a flexible PTO policy where you can take planned time off as needed.
