Gradient Robotics

About

Gradient Robotics is a Menlo Park-based startup pursuing general-purpose robotics by building and deploying intelligent robots in data centers and factories. Founded in 2024, the company has developed three generations of robots in its first four months of operation, reflecting an unusually fast engineering cycle. The team of seven works across robotics, machine learning, hardware design, software systems, and manufacturing.

The company operates from a single office in Menlo Park, California, with no remote work. Its culture is described as fast-paced and anti-bureaucracy, with a competitive, improvement-focused mindset. Team members work closely with the robots they build.

Gradient Robotics hires interns year-round and offers visa sponsorship, including TN visas for Canadians and O-1A support for exceptional individuals already authorised to work in the United States.
