Aseon Labs builds robotic pitstops for self-driving cars. A depot in a box for charging, cleaning & inspecting autonomous fleets directly in operating zones.

Autonomous driving is working. The operational layer around it is not. Today, fleets lose significant time and money traveling to centralized depots for charging, cleaning and servicing, creating dead miles, lower uptime and operational bottlenecks that limit fleet scale.

Aseon Pods are modular, rapidly deployable robotic pitstops that keep autonomous fleets operating near demand. By bringing charging, cleaning and inspection directly into operating zones, we help fleet operators increase uptime, reduce operational overhead and scale markets more efficiently without relying on large centralized depots.

We’re second-time founders and mobility infrastructure operators. Previously, we built and scaled Pushme to 5,000 stations across 40 cities before its acquisition by TIER–Dott ($600M raised). Aseon Labs is backed by Y Combinator and headquartered in Redwood City.

We’re looking for a Founding Robotics Engineer to help build and deploy real-world robotic systems from the ground up.

This is not a research role. You’ll work on physical systems that need to operate reliably outdoors, interface with world-class autonomy hardware, deploy in production environments across the world, and support systems that directly impact self-driving cars’ uptime.

What you’ll do

• Own robotic manipulation, controls and motion planning across the system
• Develop robotic workflows for physically interacting with AVs, including opening doors/panels, charging, vacuuming, surface wipe, item repositioning and more
