Senior IT & Security Engineer; Robotics

The Company

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. We're looking for the thinkers, builders, and researchers who want to be part of that loop.

As an AI robotics company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, on state-of-the-art hardware, every line of code written at Tutor has a direct impact on the global, physical economy.

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

Our robots run inside customer facilities, on customer networks. Each of those customers has an IT and security team, and they need someone at Tutor who can work with them directly. We're looking for a senior engineer to be that person and to own the systems behind the conversation: the network between our office and the robots in the field, the identity and device infrastructure the company runs on, and our security and SOC 2 program.

This is an ownership role. You would be the first person at Tutor whose full-time job is shared IT and security infrastructure, with the authority to change it. Most of the work is planned: moving a system from where it is to where it should be. Some of it is interrupt-driven: a site loses connectivity, a customer sends a security questionnaire, someone reports a vulnerability.

Part of the job is setting up the routing so those interrupts reach the right person quickly.

A significant portion of this role involves working with AI coding agents. You'll direct agents to audit configurations, collect compliance evidence, triage alerts, and carry out multi-step infrastructure tasks. Knowing how to scope work for an agent, review its output critically, and build tooling that agents can use effectively is as important as doing the work yourself.

• Own the network: The office network, the encrypted mesh that reaches every robot in the field, and each customer site's integration with its own IT: VLANs, firewall rules, egress policy, certificates, and the documentation a customer's network team needs to approve a deployment
• Work directly with customer IT and security teams: Security questionnaires, vendor risk reviews, and network design reviews for deployments
• Own the SOC 2 program: Tutor is SOC 2 certified. You keep it that way and make it better each cycle: tighten controls, automate evidence collection, keep policies current with how the company actually works, and run the annual audit
• Own security incident response and vulnerability management: Triage, remediation, and disclosure, and the communication with whoever reported the issue
• Run corporate IT through policy and automation: Identity and SSO, device management, access reviews, onboarding and offboarding. Recurring requests should become systems rather than tickets
• Set up the interrupt path: Decide how outages and security reports reach the right engineer within the hour, and handle the ones that land on you
• Review changes to shared infrastructure: Code and configuration that touches secrets, access, or the network gets a review from you, and you make the secure option the default one

• 6+ years in networking and security at a company with production systems: You have owned networks and the security…
