We’re looking for curious, driven, and passionate people who want to help shape the future of robotics and AI. If this mission excites you, we’d be thrilled to hear from you and explore how you might contribute to our journey. Role Overview At 1X, we believe physical capability emerges at the intersection of mechanics, materials, and control. The next generation of humanoids and physical AI interfaces will be enabled by mechanical structures that are strong, compliant, quiet, and durable over years of real world use.
