About Tutor
We believe robots are the biggest lever we have to making the physical world a better, more affordable place. But robots are a rounding error in our society: nearly nine out of ten American factories and warehouses don’t even have a single robot, and robots have yet to make their way into our homes or places of business.
Tutor Intelligence is changing that.
Tutor is a robotics research and deployment company, building generally capable robot hardware and artificial intelligence to enable robots to go where no robots have gone before. Sonny is a semi-humanoid robot with frontier dexterity approaching the human form. Cassie does back-breaking work, moving boxes, pallets, and bulk goods for businesses from family-owned manufacturers to some of the largest brands in the world. Tutor robots are manufactured at scale and operate as a network, combining the whole fleet’s learned experience to train ever more capable robot artificial intelligence.
Founded at MIT and headquartered in Watertown, MA, our team is full stack: we design and manufacture robot hardware, train our own models, work directly with the smallest and largest end-customers, and maintain our fleet across the United States. We’re a team of researchers, engineers, technicians, operators, and sellers who love building things and solving hard problems.
Our mission is grand: robots everywhere, for the common good, raising the standard of living across North America, and then the world.
Why Tutor?
Whether you’re designing robots, closing deals, running deployments, or creating the processes that help us scale, your work doesn’t sit on a shelf. It shows up on real production floors, making physical work safer and more affordable.
Our team of 160+ is driven by curiosity and a genuine love of building. Everyone here takes real ownership, learns fast, and holds a high bar while having each other’s backs. If you love hard problems and creating things that didn’t exist before, you’ll fit right in.
The Role
Tutor builds its own robots, and the hardware organization is about to get a lot bigger. Teams are growing, new teams are forming, and for the first time we are developing the next version of a robot while the current one ships. We are hiring engineering managers to run those teams.
Each team owns a piece of a robot: a mechanism, an electronics subsystem, a research platform, or a new version of something already in the field. The manager owns the people, the schedule, and the design decisions, and works with manufacturing from the first concept so that what the team designs can be built.
What You'll Do
- Hire and run a team of hardware engineers, and grow them
- Take a subsystem from concept through design, prototype, test, and release to manufacturing
- Run your team's design reviews and make the calls that come out of them
- Work with manufacturing, supply chain, quality, and field service on everything your team ships
- Work with the software and research teams that depend on your hardware, and that your hardware depends on
What We're Looking For
- You were a strong engineer before you managed, and you have run a team of several engineers
- You have designed and shipped electromechanical products
- You have taken a design into manufacturing and lived with what happened next
- You still read the drawings
Nice to Have
- Robots, or another product where mechanics, electronics, firmware, and software all have to work together
- Products built in volume
- Shipping one generation of a product while designing the next
Benefits
- Fully employer-covered health insurance, so you’re protected without the premium.
- A managed 401(k) to help you plan for the future.
- Generous time off: unlimited PTO and all federal holidays off for full-time salaried employees, and 16+ days of accrued paid time off plus 1.5x pay on federal holidays for hourly employees.
- Regular in-office meals and team social events throughout the year.
About Our Roles & Titles
At Tutor, we believe great engineers and researchers are defined by what they build and the impact they have — not where they sit in an org chart or what title they have. Therefore, everyone in our R&D org holds the title Member of Technical Staff (MoTS). Our job postings use standard titles so you can find us, but if you join Tutor, you'll be a MoTS — with a level that is determined through the interview process.
That also means we hire people, not slots. Work at Tutor evolves every quarter, and we set the expectation of flexibility from day one — it's common for people to start on one thing and shift to another based on where the team needs them most. A high technical bar across the board is what makes that flexibility possible: it's what allows people to contribute meaningfully whatever problem they take on.
Compensation
The base salary range for this role is $190,000 to $300,000, depending on experience.
As Tutor grows, so will our benefits. We’re continuing to invest in ways to support our team at work and beyond.
Tutor Intelligence is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applicants from all backgrounds.

Senior Level Engineering Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a senior level engineering manager job?
Employers hiring at this level look for candidates who have already owned outcomes, not just contributed to them. That means a history of setting technical direction, shipping products or systems end-to-end, and developing other engineers. Highlight initiatives you drove from ambiguous problem to production, and come prepared to discuss how you have built and scaled teams, not just managed them.
Which companies hire senior level engineering managers?
Companies hiring senior level engineering managers right now include Apple, Amazon, and Ryder System, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring at this level comes from a wide range of organizations, from established technology companies and large enterprises to growth-stage startups that need experienced leadership to scale engineering capacity.
Are there remote senior level engineering manager jobs?
Yes, remote and hybrid options are common at this level. About 35% of senior level engineering manager openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how many organizations have made distributed engineering leadership part of their standard operating model. Fully on-site roles tend to concentrate in industries where co-location is tied to product development or operational complexity.
What makes an engineering manager role senior level?
Senior level engineering manager roles are defined by scope and accountability. Where a mid-level manager executes a defined roadmap, a senior level manager often shapes it, resolving technical ambiguity, setting team standards, and making architectural tradeoffs. These roles also carry an explicit mentoring responsibility, developing engineers into independent contributors or future leads, and typically operate with less day-to-day oversight from above.
Which industries hire the most senior level engineering managers?
Senior Level engineering manager roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Consulting & Professional Services, and Electronics & Hardware, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Those sectors drive the most hiring because they combine large engineering headcounts, complex technical infrastructure, and enough organizational scale to warrant dedicated senior engineering leadership rather than relying on individual contributors to absorb management responsibilities.
