Head Of Operations

Head Of Operations

At Andromeda Robotics, we're not just imagining the future of human-robot relationships, we're building it. Abi is the first emotionally intelligent humanoid companion robot, designed to bring care, conversation, and joy to the people who need it most. Backed by tier-one investors and with customers already deploying Abi across aged care and healthcare, we're scaling fast, and we're doing it with an engineering-first culture that's obsessed with pushing the limits of what's possible.

This is a rare moment to join: we're post-technical validation, pre-ubiquity, and building out the team that will take Abi from early access to global scale.

We are seeking a Head of Operations who can own and scale the operational backbone of Andromeda Robotics. This role begins with ensuring smooth, efficient, and reliable operations across a fast-moving startup environment, but it will grow into a global leadership role responsible for manufacturing, supply chain, and international distribution.

You will be the architect of operational excellence—translating strategy into scalable systems, building structures that support both creativity and rigor, and guiding the company from scrappy startup execution to world-class industrial performance.

This is a career-defining role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fluidly between detail and strategy, and is energized by building the machine behind the machines.

Our Values

Deeply empathetic - Kindness and compassion are at the heart of everything we do.

Purposely playful - Play sharpens focus. It keeps us curious, fast and obsessed with the craft.

Relentlessly striving - With relentless ambition, an action bias and constant curiosity, we don't settle.

Strong when it counts - Tenacious under pressure, we expect problems and stay in motion to adapt and progress.

United in action - Different minds. Shared mission. No passengers.
