## Description

Teleo, a Havoc company, is a robotics company that transforms construction heavy equipment, including loaders, dozers, excavators, and trucks, into autonomous robots for commercial and defense applications. Our technology enables a single operator to supervise and control multiple machines simultaneously, delivering significant productivity gains while improving operator safety and comfort.

Teleo was founded by a team of experienced technology leaders who previously led the development of Lyft's Self-Driving Car program and Google Street View. Teleo recently announced its merger with Havoc AI, a fast-growing defense technology company developing coordinated fleets of autonomous maritime vessels.

This is a unique opportunity to join a team building technology with real-world impact. You will work on cutting-edge 100,000-pound autonomous robots and engineer complex systems at the intersection of hardware, software, robotics, and AI.

## About the Role

We are looking for a Lead Manufacturing Engineer, Contract Manufacturing, to sit at the intersection of Teleo engineering and contract manufacturing, supporting our autonomy retrofit kits from prototype through a stable transition to CM, and owning production from there. You'll collaborate with Teleo's cross-functional engineering, operations and PM teams on internal prototyping and manufacturing-process development, then own the handoff to the CM and shift into overseeing CM delivery, cost, and quality — acting as the primary point of contact when issues arise at the CM.

Teleo is an equal opportunity employer and we value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. All qualified people are encouraged to apply.
