Key skills for this role
We are looking for a Robotics Full Stack Software Engineer to join our team! The Teleoperation Team bridges the gap between biological and artificial intelligence. While the operator experience lives in the immersive interface, what makes it actually work lives deeper in the stack in how data moves, how messages are sized, how packets travel over unreliable networks, and how you preserve fidelity when bandwidth is constrained. That's this role. You're the person who understands what happens between the robot and the operator at the lowest level, and who knows how to optimize every layer of that path. There's no playbook for this yet. Sim-to-real gap not included.
Persona AI is building humanoid robots for the most demanding environments in heavy industry — shipyards, steel mills, fabrication facilities, and offshore platforms — performing welding, grinding, maintenance, inspection, and material-handling work that is dangerous, physically demanding, and increasingly difficult to staff.
We are backed by leading strategic and financial investors and engaged with global industrial leaders across Korea, Japan, the United States, and Singapore. Korea is the center of gravity for our early commercial strategy, anchored by relationships with the world’s leading shipbuilders and steelmakers. Our work spans both the robot platform itself and the systems, partners, and playbooks required to deploy it at scale.
We offer competitive compensation, a performance-based bonus, 99% employer covered medical benefits, early-stage equity, competitive PTO, and a company-wide paid winter break between December 24th and January 2nd.
You’ll shape technology that’s redefining the possibilities of robotics and human interaction.
