We're focused on an ambitious goal to make generalized robots broadly accessible, enabling households to take back quality time. We have spent the last 18 months building a talented team, securing capital, and validating our technology. We are now seeking passionate individuals to join us in the next phase of our growth. If you are ready to apply your skills to the forefront of robotics innovation, we’d love to hear from you. What to Expect As Global Supply Manager, you'll lead strategic sourcing of critical components and assemblies for Memo, Sunday's first product. You'll partner with the Head of Supply Management in Asia and with US-based leaders across Hardware, Manufacturing, NPI, and Finance to build a resilient, sustainable supply base. You will own the commercial and operational success of Sunday's supply chain as we scale from prototype to production volume. ## What You'll Do - Define and own the category strategies for the critical components and assemblies - Lead RFx processes and negotiate commercial agreements, including piece pricing, tooling/NRE, and key contractual terms - Manage business risk through assessment of capacity, geopolitics, logistics, and supplier technology and commercial roadmaps. Actively partner with the engineering team to identify/mitigate supply and demand challenges - Partner with Hardware and Electrical Engineering on component, module, and assembly-level part decision in early design phase to implement the Design for Supply Chain (DfSC) strategy to ensure that the product designs are highly aligned with supplier capabilities, material availability and cost target - Work closely with Supply Chain in Asia to align on pricing , capacity allocation, and technical issues - Build the processes, templates, and reports for Sunday's US supply chain function need - Achieve or exceed cost target through should-cost model, industry and market analysis and well-planned negotiations ## What You'll Bring Must Haves: - 5+ years in sourcing or procurement in high volume consumer electronics - Degree in Supply Chain, Engineering, Business Administration, or equivalent experience - Experience leading cross-functional work-streams with engineering, operations, finance, legal and NPI teams to drive alignment and execute sourcing strategies - Excellent communication and interpersonal skills - Willingness to travel domestically and internationally often with short notice Nice to Haves: - Existing relationships with or experience working with US-based IC distributors and vendors such as Avnet, Arrow, Digi-Key, Mouser, or direct semiconductor vendor relationships - Technical fluency in at least one semiconductor category - MCUs, PMICs, camera, motor controllers, IMUs, or connectivity ICs - Import/export compliance knowledge (ITAR, export controls, dual-use electronics) - Mandarin proficiency can be a plus At Sunday Robotics, we’re building technology shaped by real people — curious, creative, and diverse. We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and consider all qualified applicants regardless of race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status. Even if you don’t meet every single requirement, we encourage you to apply. Studies show that women and underrepresented groups often hold back unless they meet 100% of the criteria — we don’t want that to be the reason we miss out on great talent. ## About Sunday Robotics ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Sunday Robotics builds Memo, an autonomous home robot that learns household chores through a proprietary Skill Capture Glove™ and data collected from real homes. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series B) - **Headquarters**: Redwood City, California, USA - **Founded**: 2024 (founder dropped out of Stanford CS PhD in 2024 to start the company) - **Founders**: Tony Zhao ## Core Business - **Primary industry/industries**: Consumer robotics, home automation, artificial intelligence - **Target customers**: B2C – households (homeowners and families) - **Mission or purpose statement**: "Giving people their time back for the things that matter most" by automating repetitive household chores. ## Products & Services - **Memo (Autonomous Home Robot)**: A wheeled, single-armed robot designed to perform household tasks such as loading the dishwasher, folding socks, pulling espresso shots, and clearing tables. It uses AI trained on data from hundreds of real homes and features passive stability, compliant control, and a soft silicone shell for safety. - **Skill Capture Glove™**: A low-cost (~$400) wearable glove that mirrors Memo’s kinematics. A distributed network of “Memory Developers” (over 2,000 gloves shipped) record themselves performing tasks in their own homes, generating training data that enables Memo to learn new skills without human tele-operation. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: $1.15 billion (as of March 2026, Series B round) - **Key Metric**: Total Funding – $165 million (Series B, oversubscribed) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Coatue (lead, with Thomas Laffont joining the board), Bain Capital Ventures, Fidelity Management & Research Company, Tiger Global, Benchmark, Conviction, Xtal Ventures - **Growth Signals**: Engineering team grew 3x, Research 4x, Data Operations 5x ahead of the Series B. Beta program launching in late 2026 with “Founding Families.” Memo already learns multiple skills in parallel (dishes, coffee, laundry). Public deployment is the stated focus, moving beyond demos. ## Competitive Advantages - **Unmatched iteration speed**: The company can move from in-the-wild data collection to model training and real-world evaluation faster than competitors. - **Full-stack ownership**: Controls the entire stack – from the Skill Capture Glove and data collection pipeline to hardware design, manufacturing, and AI models. - **Data moat**: Proprietary data from thousands of glove recordings and the robot fleet creates a flywheel that improves over time, while also benefiting from public datasets. - **Safety-first design**: Memo has passive stability (won’t fall when power is cut), compliant control (limbs can be pushed safely), and a soft, cleanable silicone shell – making it safe for homes with children and pets. ## Strategic Focus - **Real-world deployment over demos**: The Series B announcement explicitly states “No More Demos” – the company is shifting entirely to shipping Memo to households via a beta program in 2026. - **Scaling skills**: Continuously expanding Memo’s Skill Library (new skills every month) and improving generalization so the robot works in homes it has never seen. - **Manufacturing cost reduction**: Current hand-built cost is ~$20,000; target retail price will be at least 50% lower after large-scale manufacturing. ## Why Work Here - **Mission-driven culture**: The team is united by the goal of giving people back their time through helpful robotics. Core value: persistence. - **Small, ambitious team**: 30+ engineers, designers, and researchers in Silicon Valley – offering high ownership and impact. - **Cutting-edge robotics & AI**: Work on the full stack – from hardware mechanical design to imitation learning and world models. Founders have deep academic roots (ALOHA project, Stanford). - **Open roles**: Hiring across Robotics, Hardware, Software, ML & Robotics Infra, Data Operations, and Product. Includes remote Memory Developer positions. - **Office location**: Redwood City, CA (likely hybrid/on-site for most technical roles). ## Sources 1. [sunday.ai](https://www.sunday.ai/) 2.
