Supply Chain Manager — Sonny

About Tutor

We believe general-purpose, generally-intelligent robots will be built in our lifetimes. Robots will work in our factories, move our goods, walk on our streets and eventually be in our homes. To build that future, research and deployment must work in lockstep: real-world operation must make the technology better, and better technology must make deployment easier.

As an AI robotics company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, on state-of-the-art hardware, every part we buy and every robot we ship has a direct impact on the global, physical economy. Founded by MIT alumni and backed by leading AI and robotics investors, we don't just build robots — we deploy, maintain, and continuously improve them in production environments.

Culture

We believe something truly special happens when talented, motivated people work together. At Tutor, every member of the team is empowered to have real impact in everything they do. We're characterized by both technical excellence and next-level collaboration and respect.

The Role

We're rapidly scaling robot manufacturing, and Sonny is the next robot to ramp. You'll own its purchased-part supply chain end to end: the vendor base, the buys, the buffers, the cost, and the data that tells the company what we can build and when. Our critical parts come from China with 100+ day lead times, and the design is still changing monthly. We are only as good as our suppliers — you're the person who makes that work.

We want someone as comfortable in a spreadsheet as on a call with a factory in Shenzhen. Someone who builds the tools that predict shortages instead of chasing them, and who negotiates like every dollar and every day matters — because at our scale it does. Mindset and ownership over credentials.
