Develop capital structures across HoldCo, OpCo, and project SPVs, prepare investor and lender materials, and coordinate cross-functional stakeholders.

Lead the buildout and scale-up of an assembly, quality-control, and manufacturing line for robotic hardware. Own DFM, tooling, fixtures, inspection criteria, root-cause analysis, corrective action, supplier management, standard work, documentation, and manufacturing capacity planning. This hands-on role requires personally building hardware and collaborating closely with engineers and technicians at TAR’s San Francisco robotics facility.

Leads manufacturing engineering across TAR’s robotics product lines, transitioning from prototype and low-rate builds to reliable higher-volume production. Responsibilities include defining strategy, building the engineering organization, planning capital equipment and capacity, establishing company-wide quality and documentation standards, managing supplier and contract manufacturer strategy, and driving root-cause and continuous-improvement processes. The role advises executives on investment, make-versus-buy, and production decisions and represents manufacturing engineering with external stakeholders.

Lead the end-to-end architecture and development of robotic systems for large-scale solar construction. Design and iterate on hardware and software, establish engineering, testing, validation, and documentation standards, close technical capability gaps, mentor the robotics team, and coordinate with hardware, software, manufacturing, and deployment leaders. The role is hands-on and based in San Francisco with regular travel to West Texas.

Build software for renewable energy campuses, including high-fidelity simulations, geospatial data pipelines, automated site and electrical design, and energy management systems. Develop real-time controls, SCADA and telemetry integrations, testing infrastructure, and safety systems for islanded solar and storage facilities. Collaborate with power, civil, and external engineering experts to convert domain knowledge into reliable software and accelerate utility-scale site design and deployment.

Own full-cycle recruiting for TAR’s San Francisco R&D team across robotics, hardware, and software. Responsibilities include sourcing passive candidates, advising hiring leaders, managing structured interviews in Ashby, closing offers, improving candidate experience, strengthening employer brand, and analyzing recruiting metrics. The recruiter will help scale hiring rapidly while recruiting technical talent from engineering and related industries.

Design and validate mechanical systems for deployment machines: chassis, drivetrains, manipulators, and end effectors. Produce CAD, detailed drawings, GD&T, and DFM handoff. Run FEA and fatigue analysis, build and test prototypes, and drive vendor relationships to scale prototypes into field-deployed fleets in harsh outdoor environments.

Lead machine-level systems engineering for robotics: derive requirements from deployment targets, define use cases and interfaces, build error/performance budgets, run verification/validation, own safety architecture, support integration, field-commission devices, and drive cross-functional alignment.

Work directly with founders to drive multi-GW energy projects end-to-end: deliver construction and procurement milestones, lead special projects, support large-scale project and equity financing, hire across levels, and resolve urgent operational issues on-site.

Design and own electrical systems for off-grid deployment robots: end-to-end PCB design, power electronics and battery systems, motor drives integration, sensor and compute integration, EMI/EMC and safety, field bring-up and debugging, and manufacturer handoff for production.
