We are French and American by birth and global by nature. We are backed by partners who share our vision, including Eclipse, Khosla Ventures, Bpifrance, and HSG, alongside Eric Schmidt, Xavier Niel, Daniela Rus, and Vladlen Koltun. Our people work across the Bay Area and Europe, building the engine that will teach robots to do real work in the real world. We recently unveiled Eno, our wheeled, dexterous robot powered by our GENE foundation model, and we are starting to put it to work with real customers. ## The Role You'll own Genesis's brand across social platforms, starting with X, and build awareness, understanding, and engagement among researchers, labs, scientists, and prospective hires. Working with engineering and founders, you'll capture research, hardware, and model-training work and show the evidence behind Genesis's leadership in the field. This hire matters now because deployment brings more real work to share and more scrutiny of every claim, requiring accurate publishing and support for founder-led content. ## What You'll Do - Run Genesis's social channels, starting with X and extending to LinkedIn, YouTube, and other platforms, owning the publishing calendar and adapting material to each audience. - Capture and edit short videos from the lab and field, or direct the shoot and edit, planning footage with engineers so viewers can see the task and understand the result. - Turn research and model-training work into technical threads built around a specific finding, evaluation choice, hardware constraint, or lesson from a failed attempt. - Spend time in engineering reviews and with founders each week to capture work at the source and develop founder-led posts that preserve individual voices and technical judgment. - Engage researchers and the Genesis World open-source community through substantive replies and questions, crediting contributors and routing technical questions to the right people. - Coordinate launch-day publishing with product marketing, support employee voices, and prepare assets that make accurate sharing easy. - Review robot footage and captions for platform, operating conditions, autonomy, playback speed, and edits that affect interpretation, confirming customer approval and data-rights review for customer material. - Measure reach and meaningful engagement among researchers, engineers, and target candidates, using audience quality and results to improve the next week's work. ## What You'll Bring - Social media or editorial experience, with direct responsibility for a technical organization's channels. - Technical comprehension sufficient to find a useful story in a research paper or hardware review while preserving the caveats that matter. - Short-form video production skills, including hands-on shooting and editing or experience directing others with specific briefs and useful feedback. - Strong writing skills across concise posts and substantive technical threads, with judgment about when a diagram or an unbroken clip explains more than copy. - Sound editorial judgment about what is ready to publish, what needs technical review, and what should stay private. - Track record of building relationships with researchers and open-source contributors through useful exchanges and consistent credit. - Clear understanding of channel analytics and audience quality, supported by examples of changes made in response to evidence. - Bonus: Experience covering robotics or embodied AI, with familiarity with open-source research communities and contributor norms. - Bonus: A record of supporting founder-led content while preserving individual voices. - Bonus: Experience handling public questions about automation and jobs with direct answers and respect for industrial workers. ## About Genesis ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Genesis AI is a full-stack robotics company building general-purpose robots with human-level dexterity and intelligence, powered by its own foundation model and hardware. - **Entity Type**: Private (Seed stage – $105M raised) - **Headquarters**: Paris, France (with offices in the San Francisco Bay Area and London) - **Founded**: 2024 (emerged from stealth in July 2025) - **Founders**: Zhou Xian (CEO), Théophile Gervet (President & Co-founder), Yi-Ling Qiao (Co-founder), Tsun-Hsuan Wang (Co-founder) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Robotics Engineering / General-Purpose Robotics - **Target customers**: Enterprises in manufacturing, laboratories, hospitals, and logistics; future expansion into homes. - **Mission**: “Build the world’s most capable robots that unlock new possibilities for humans.” ## Products & Services - **Eno (General-Purpose Robot)**: A full-body robot designed to operate reliably in factories, labs, hospitals, and homes. Driven by the GENE foundation model, it features 20 active, back-drivable degrees of freedom in its hands – matching human size and dexterity. - **GENE-26.5 (Foundation Model)**: The AI model that powers Eno. It understands goals, reasons through changing conditions, and completes tasks end-to-end. Trained on massive human-based internet video data and proprietary simulation. - **Data Collection Glove**: A lightweight, sensor-loaded glove worn by humans to collect high-quality manipulation data in real-world settings (e.g., lab technicians, manufacturing workers). This glove bridges the “embodiment gap” and feeds the model with human skill data. - **Simulation System**: A proprietary simulation environment that accelerates model training and evaluation, reducing the iteration bottleneck. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not disclosed - **Key Metric**: Total funding of **$105M** (Seed round, July 2025) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Eclipse (co-lead), Khosla Ventures (co-lead), Bpifrance, HSG; individual investors Eric Schmidt, Xavier Niel, Daniela Rus, Vladlen Koltun. Hardware manufacturing partner: Wuji Tech (China). - **Growth Signals**: - Headcount grew from stealth to ~53–60 employees across Paris, Bay Area, and London (monthly growth +16% on LinkedIn). - 29 active job postings as of mid-2026, with a +262.5% monthly increase in openings. - Demonstrated a wide range of manipulation tasks (cooking, piano, Rubik’s cube, lab work) in public demos. - In talks with multiple customers for commercial deployment in pharma and manufacturing. ## Competitive Advantages - **Full-stack integration**: Genesis controls both the AI model and the robotic hardware, enabling tighter optimization and faster iteration than companies that only do software or hardware. - **Human-like dexterity**: The robotic hand matches human size, shape, and 20 degrees of freedom, allowing direct transfer of human demonstration data without an “embodiment gap.” - **Data flywheel**: The combination of a low-friction data collection glove, simulation, and egocentric video creates a scalable pipeline for building a “human skill library.” - **World-class team**: Founders and early engineers have backgrounds from Mistral AI, NVIDIA, Google DeepMind, Apple Intelligence, Unity, Epic, and leading robotics labs (Berkeley, CMU). ## Strategic Focus - **Go full stack**: Continue integrating model, hardware, and data collection to deliver a complete general-purpose robot. - **Commercial rollout**: Target early customers in pharmaceutical labs, manufacturing, and other industrial settings where dexterous manipulation is critical. - **Scale data collection**: Expand the use of the data glove (both internally and with third-party partners) to rapidly grow the model’s skill repertoire. - **Global hiring**: Aggressively grow the team across Paris, Bay Area, and London, especially in ML, simulation, rendering, and robotics engineering. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Values include candor, responsibility, limitless ambition, and a joyful journey. The team is described as multicultural, optimistic, and pragmatic. - **Work model**: Hybrid/office-based presence in Paris, San Francisco Bay Area, and London. No explicit remote policy mentioned, but the company emphasizes in-person collaboration. - **Engineering culture**: Builders get to work on the hardest problems in robotics and AI – from foundation models to hardware design to data systems. The team includes pioneers of generative simulation, Diffusion Policy, and GPU compilers. - **Notable perks**: The chance to shape a category-defining general-purpose robot; close collaboration with world-class investors and advisors; fast-growing startup with significant resources ($105M seed). ## Sources 1.
