  • Support financial tracking and purchasing for assigned projects by working closely with the Buyer and project team to monitor spend, purchases, and budget alignment.
  • Set up and manage task environments for robot testing by coordinating with designers, facilities, and procurement on equipment selection, installation logistics, and commissioning.
  • Coordinate international travel with HR and scheduling with partners overseas in Asia, including aligning across time zones, booking meetings, and ensuring clear agendas and follow-ups.
Qualifications and Experience

  • Experience (through school projects, internships, co-ops, or extracurriculars) with project coordination, task tracking, or working on structured project teams.
  • Familiarity with project management tools such as Jira, Smartsheet, Trello, Asana, MS Project, or similar.
  • Experience creating or maintaining schedules, trackers, or simple reports for teams is an asset.
  • Exposure to working with contractors, vendors, or external partners is an asset.
  • Experience in a hardware, robotics, or software development environment is considered an asset but not required.
Skills

About Sanctuary AI Founded in 2018, Sanctuary builds humanoid robots and a novel control system for them that integrates symbolic logic and reasoning with data-driven robot foundation models. We use our robots to collect vision, audio, touch, and proprioception data from the perspective of the robot while they perform real-world work tasks. We use that data to train multimodal robot foundation models. Because our systems are vertically integrated, we can design, deploy, and refine at scale. Our mission is to create the world's first human-like intelligence in general-purpose robots.
