About the role
Tutor Intelligence - Senior Software Engineer, AI-Augmented Development Senior Software Engineer, AI-Augmented Development Watertown, MA R&D - Software / Full-time / On-site apply for this job The Company Tutor Intelligence is building the technology and processes to let robots go where they've never gone before: the average American factory. We understand that general-purpose and generally-intelligent robots are going to be built in our lifetimes, and we're combining human and artificial intelligence to lead the charge. Founded by a close-knit group of engineers out of MIT, Tutor Intelligence is an early-stage startup developing state of the art AI-powered robotics for American factories.
The Role Something has changed. A year ago you wrote code by hand — and you were good at it. Then you started using Claude Code, Cursor, or similar tools and realized the game had fundamentally shifted. Now LLMs write the vast majority of your code, and you're producing more, better software than ever before. You didn't just try these tools — you went all in. We're looking for a senior software engineer who has lived through this transition and come out the other side more productive, not less rigorous. Someone who understands that AI-augmented development isn't about generating slop — it's about a skilled engineer leveraging a force multiplier to ship things that used to take a team of five. At Tutor, you'll build the distributed infrastructure, cloud services, user interfaces, and developer tooling that power intelligent robots in real factories. Your code ships to real robots that pick real things in real warehouses — not another SaaS dashboard. You'll work across the stack — backend services, frontends, CI/CD, ML pipelines, data systems — wherever the highest-leverage work is on any given day. Robotics experience is not required. Strong engineering judgment is. But if you've ever wanted to watch a robot do something because of code you wrote that morning, this is the job.
