## Job description

Company Overview

At Skild AI, we are building the world's first general purpose robotic intelligence that is robust and adapts to unseen scenarios without failing. We believe massive scale through data-driven machine learning is the key to unlocking these capabilities for the widespread deployment of robots within society. Our team consists of individuals with varying levels of experience and backgrounds, from new graduates to domain experts. Relevant industry experience is important, but ultimately less so than your demonstrated abilities and attitude. We are looking for passionate individuals who are eager to explore uncharted waters and contribute to our innovative projects.

Position Overview

We’re looking for a Social Media Intern to help translate cutting-edge AI and robotics into short-form content that captures attention, builds our brand, and reaches the next generation of builders.

This is an on-site, hands-on role working directly with our Creative Director and internal teams to shape how Skild shows up online.

## Responsibilities

- Create, shoot, and edit short-form video content across TikTok, Instagram, and emerging platforms
- Identify trends early and execute quickly while they’re still relevant
- Develop and test original content concepts aligned with Skild’s brand voice
- Help grow Skild’s social presence from the ground up through consistent posting and iteration
- Collaborate with creative, marketing, and robotics teams to bring ideas to life
- Operate in a fast-moving environment where experimentation is encouraged

## Preferred Qualifications

- Deep familiarity with TikTok, Instagram, and short-form video culture
- Strong instincts for trends, creators, and viral formats
- Experience creating and posting content consistently (personal or professional accounts)
- Comfort working in fast-paced, evolving environments
- Willingness to experiment, fail fast, and improve quickly
- Interest in technology, startups, and building something from zero to one
- Bonus: A growing personal social media presence or portfolio of short-form work

## About Skild AI

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Skild AI builds a general-purpose robotic intelligence (the "Skild Brain") that enables any robot to autonomously perceive, act, and interact across diverse physical environments.
- **Entity Type**: Private (venture-backed; latest round Series C closed January 2026)
- **Headquarters**: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States (also offices in San Mateo, San Francisco, and Bengaluru)
- **Founded**: 2023
- **Founders**: Not publicly available in the reviewed sources

## Core Business
- **Primary industry/industries**: Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Physical Automation
- **Target customers**: B2B enterprise – manufacturing, construction, security/inspection, logistics, and other sectors requiring physical task automation
- **Mission or purpose statement**: "Bringing AI into the physical world" by building an omni-bodied brain that can control any robot for any task, learned from scalable, data-driven machine learning

## Products & Services
- **Skild Brain**: The core AI foundation model that works across different robot types and tasks, enabling low‑level skills (grasping, handover, navigation) abstracted via API calls.
- **Mobile Manipulation Platform**: Robots powered by Skild Brain that can navigate, grasp, and manipulate objects in unstructured environments.
- **Security/Inspection Robot Platform**: Robots equipped with Skild Brain for autonomous inspection in hazardous areas, reducing the need for human manual patrols.
- **Autonomous Packing System**: High‑precision dexterous manipulation for repetitive packing tasks.
- **Simulation & Data Tools**: Physics simulation environments and annotation pipelines used to train and validate the model.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed (private company)
- **Key Metric**: Total funding raised – **$2.215B** (CB Insights) / **$2.21B** (PitchBook), including a **$1.4B Series C** in January 2026
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Lightspeed, Felicis, Coatue, Bezos Expeditions, Sequoia Capital, and 39+ others (per CB Insights)
- **Growth Signals**:
  - Acquired Zebra Technologies’ robotics automation business (April 2026)
  - Rapid headcount growth: ~50 employees (PitchBook) with **51 open roles** listed on Greenhouse as of mid‑2026
  - Expanded footprint to multiple US cities and Bengaluru, India

## Competitive Advantages
- **Omni‑bodied AI**: A single foundation model works across diverse robot hardware and tasks, avoiding the need for task‑specific training.
- **Scalable data pipeline**: Learns from human videos and real‑world interactions, creating a long‑term data advantage.
- **End‑to‑end integration**: From simulation and data annotation to real‑world deployment, the company controls the full stack.
- **Backing by top‑tier VCs and Bezos Expeditions**, providing capital and strategic access for rapid scaling.

## Strategic Focus
- **Real‑world deployment**: Prioritizing tangible robot applications (packing, inspection, manipulation) to deliver immediate customer value.
- **Data moat**: Continuing to scale data acquisition through human‑video learning and proprietary simulation.
- **Cross‑industry expansion**: Moving from early‑stage deployments into construction, manufacturing, logistics, and security verticals.

## Why Work Here
- **Innovation‑driven culture**: Described as a team where “curiosity meets impact,” tackling the frontier of physical AI.
- **Diverse openings**: 50+ roles across engineering (CV/ML, manipulation, embedded, simulation, infrastructure), research, product, operations, and marketing.
- **Global presence**: Offices in Pittsburgh, San Mateo, San Francisco (US) and Bengaluru (India); some roles allow remote work, though many are location‑specific.
- **Engineering‑forward**: Emphasis on data‑driven machine learning, robotics, and large‑scale systems, with opportunities to work on the core AI model and deployment.
- **Perks**: Not detailed, but typical for venture‑backed robotics startups include competitive equity, modern hardware, and a mission‑oriented environment.
