About the job

Requirements
  • At least 3 years of relevant professional experience.
  • Practical understanding of modern network infrastructure, including Layer 2/Layer 3 switching, routing, VLANs, DHCP/DNS, firewalls, VPN, and enterprise wireless.
  • Linux administration and Bash; ability to install, configure, automate, and troubleshoot Linux systems from the command line, including storage, networking, and boot-level problems.
  • Programming skills sufficient to build internal tools, scripts, small services, and simple web interfaces for administration and monitoring, using Python or an equivalent language.
  • Comfort working with physical hardware, including racking, cabling, replacing components, and interpreting vendor manuals.
  • Communication skills and willingness to work on other people’s problems, including explaining causes and fixes to non-specialists.
Responsibilities
  • Design, build, and operate the network, including switching, routing, VLAN segmentation, firewalls, site-to-site and remote-access VPN, and wireless coverage across the office, lab, and workshop.
  • Run network services used by the sites, including DHCP, internal DNS, NTP, RADIUS, certificate-based network authentication, and ISP and failover links.
  • Manage servers, GPU nodes, NAS and backup storage, racks, structured cabling, PDUs, UPS units, and compute and peripherals attached to capture and test rigs; maintain inventory, firmware baselines, and replacement schedules.
  • Build computational infrastructure, including shared high-throughput storage for capture and training data, job scheduling and GPU allocation, environment provisioning, and container and image registries, to use CPU, GPU, and disk capacity efficiently and fairly.
  • Own backup and recovery for research data and infrastructure state, including offsite copies, restore testing, and a documented recovery plan for training and capture pipelines.
  • Write internal tooling for monitoring, alerting, inventory, capacity and usage reporting, and simple web-based administration.
  • Diagnose hardware and network faults, from cabling and optics through driver, firmware, and kernel-level problems, including GPU, NVMe, and high-throughput networking issues.
  • Work with vendors, integrators, and support organisations on warranties, RMAs, escalations, and infrastructure procurement.
  • Support other teams with their infrastructure by advising on what they build themselves, resolving reported issues, and documenting common problems and solutions.
Desired Qualifications
  • Compute cluster administration using Slurm, Kubernetes, or equivalent, including GPU scheduling and shared high-throughput storage.
  • Storage engineering using ZFS, Ceph, NFS, or SMB at scale, tiering, and multi-terabyte dataset handling.
  • Configuration management and infrastructure-as-code using Ansible, Terraform, NixOS, or similar tools.
  • Monitoring stacks such as Prometheus and Grafana.
  • Experience supporting a lab, workshop, or manufacturing environment, including operational technology or machine networks separated from the office network.
  • Hybrid or cloud experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure for burst training capacity and offsite backup.

About the company

REVEL Robotics builds a data infrastructure and hardware stack to train humanoid robots for real-world tasks. It creates high‑fidelity digital twins of tools and appliances from partner manufacturers and uses them in domain-randomized simulations, powered by its Neural Gambit wearable to capture human force, dexterity, and intent and train its RAi model; the company also develops an upper-body humanoid platform with dual arms, dexterous hands, and tactile sensing built on NVIDIA Isaac Sim. Unlike general robotics vendors, REVEL focuses on translating human skill into scalable machine capability through a B2B data library, simulation environment, and trained models that help other developers teach robots to use real tools. Its goal is to alleviate skilled‑labor shortages in manufacturing, skilled trades, and logistics by enabling robots to learn practical, real‑world tasks.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • REVEL reported 35-plus team members across ten-plus countries by September 2026.
  • The company says it moved into Prague headquarters and secured a $5 million pre-seed round.
  • Public Genesis demos at IRONMAN 70.3 and NVIDIA hackathons validate early market attention.

What critics are saying

  • REVEL remains pre-seed, bootstrapped from savings, and still chases first deployments.
  • Genesis launched publicly in August 2026, but customer revenue stays undisclosed.
  • Figure and Tesla Optimus can outspend REVEL, compressing its data and hardware window.

What makes Revel Robotics unique

  • Brian Walker and Kamil Dusejovsky launched REVEL in August 2025 with full-stack robotics ambitions.
  • Neural Gambit captures human force, dexterity, and intent for training embodied AI.
  • Genesis combines upper-body humanoid hardware, RAI software, and NVIDIA Isaac Sim simulation.
