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 will be built in our lifetimes, and we’re combining human and artificial intelligence to lead the charge. As an MIT-founded AI software company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, every role at Tutor has a direct impact on the global, physical economy.

We’re looking for an ambitious, externally-facing generalist to help drive new business initiatives, early product concepts, and exploratory commercial opportunities. As a Strategic Projects Associate, you’ll be dropped into ambiguous, high-leverage threads that shape the company's future: identifying new markets, developing partnerships, collaborating with financing sources, and helping leadership turn loose ideas into executable opportunities.

This is a creative, fast-paced role heavy on communication, persuasion, and structured problem-solving. You’ll spend most of your time talking to external stakeholders, crafting narratives, selling possibilities, writing a massive volume of clear communication, and keeping complex exploratory threads on track. Not a process role, not an internal analyst role — this is closer to venture creation inside a robotics company.

Responsibilities

• Drive very early-stage exploratory sales and dealmaking processes, including outreach, framing, and follow-up.
• Coordinate with customers, partners, investors, vendors, and domain experts to move conversations and projects forward.
• Gather technical input from engineering teams and translate it into clear external communication and realistic opportunity framing.
• Maintain momentum across multiple threads through structured communication, scheduling, and consistent follow-through.
• Produce a high volume of clear written communication, including emails, briefs, one-pagers, and meeting recaps.
• Identify creative angles and approaches to advance new product concepts, partnerships, or commercial opportunities.
• Support leadership on high-impact special projects that span commercial, product, and strategic domains.

Requirements

• 1–4 years in a fast-paced environment (consulting, VC, IB, startup, PM, strategy, or similar).
• Technical background or comfort: engineering degree/minor, technical coursework, or experience working closely with technical teams.
• Strong client-facing instincts: able to sell, persuade, negotiate, and build relationships with external stakeholders.
• Exceptionally organized, capable of managing many concurrent threads without losing track.
• Excellent written communication: concise, precise, high-volume email and message writing.
• Creative and entrepreneurial mindset; ability to ideate, frame opportunities, and navigate ambiguity.
• High ownership and reliability; comfortable taking vague ideas and structuring them into concrete next steps.
