Develops human-like androids for enterprise operations
Department: Facilities
Location: San Carlos
Shift: Monday–Friday, Day Shift
We’re building humanoid robots that work in any space humans exist with the mission to create an abundance of labor. Simple, but it’s not.
To do this right, we have to solve robotics, AI, software, hardware, manufacturing and operations at the same time, at scale, in a form factor that has to be safe. If you’re inspired by this, you’ll thrive here. We’ve been at this since 2014 and we’re at the point where the hard problems are behind us and the hard work is in front of us.
NEO is our flagship - a general purpose robot designed to move, learn, and operate in the real world alongside real people. We’re not demoing it, we're shipping it. We’re excited to meet you, if this excites you.
If you’ve spent your career working on problems that matter and want to see them actually reach the world - this is that moment. We’re scaling, we’re hiring with intention, and we need people who want to build something that will genuinely change how humans spend their time safely creating abundance for all.
The Facilities team keeps 1X’s San Carlos site running so the people building NEO never have to think twice about their space. From equipment uptime to safety compliance, we’re the quiet infrastructure that lets engineering, manufacturing, and operations move fast without disruption. As we scale and ship, this team makes sure the physical world underneath the mission never becomes the bottleneck.
Own the day to day upkeep, safety and functionality of 1X’s San Carlos facility, including equipment, systems and workspace, so every team building and shipping NEO has a safe, reliable and fully operational environment to work in every day.

Team members at 1X who thrive here are builders. They move fast, own their work completely, and treat time like it’s the one thing you can’t get back - because it is. They say what they mean, finish what they start, and hold themselves to a standard before anyone has to ask. We push each other to be better, and we do it with honesty and respect.
