About
Humanoid is building commercially scalable and safe humanoid robots. Its HMND-01 platform is deployed in real industrial environments.
Responsibilities
•Build and own unit economics models for each robot, covering BOM, landed cost, deployment, service, uptime, and cost per effective hour versus human labour
•Track cost reductions across product generations and connect engineering and supply-chain decisions to margin impact
•Model customer payback and lifetime value by segment, use case, and contract structure
•Design pricing for Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) and outright purchases, including volume tiers, multi-year step-downs, service levels, and software add-ons
•Build deal models for large enterprise contracts and support commercial teams during negotiations
•Partner with Legal and Accounting on revenue recognition implications of contract structures, such as leases versus services
•Analyze acquisitions, joint ventures, strategic partnerships, and supplier investments, including valuation, synergies, structuring, and accretion/dilution
•Support due diligence, prepare board materials, and track post-deal performance against the case
•Model venture debt, term loans, equipment and fleet financing, and working-capital facilities, including covenants, amortisation, and headroom
•Build an integrated capital plan linking equity rounds, debt, and runway, and support fundraising with investor-grade models and data rooms
•Own the annual budget and rolling forecast, using a driver-based three-statement model linking production ramp, headcount, capex, and cash
•Run monthly business reviews with budget owners, explain variances, and keep burn and runway visible to leadership and the board
•Lead scenario planning for production volumes, component costs, pricing, and capital timing
•Partner with Operations, Supply Chain, and contract manufacturers on capacity plans, capex, inventory, standard costing, and supplier terms
•Build make-versus-buy, should-cost, and capacity investment cases as the business scales toward mass production
Requirements
•7+ years in strategic finance, FP&A, corporate development, or investment banking, including at least 3 years in a high-growth, venture-backed company
•Hands-on experience scaling a startup through rapid growth and building finance processes from scratch
•Manufacturing or hardware experience, including BOMs, standard costing, capex, inventory, and contract manufacturing
•Proven track record in unit economics and pricing, including recurring or usage-based models
•Direct experience with M&A or strategic transaction analysis, from valuation through board approval
•Strong debt modeling experience, including modeling and helping negotiate venture debt, term loans, or asset-backed facilities with covenants
•Experience owning budgeting and forecasting cycles and building a driver-based three-statement model
•Expert Excel / Google Sheets modeling skills and familiarity with ERP and planning tools
•Clear communication skills, turning complex analysis into concise recommendations for founders, boards, and investors
•Ability to work at a fast pace and with ambiguity, prioritise effectively, and maintain accuracy under pressure
Nice to have
•Experience in robotics, automotive, EV, aerospace, or industrial technology
Conditions
•Competitive equity through stock options with meaningful upside as the company scales
•30+ paid days off, including 23 days of annual leave, all UK bank holidays, and additional company closure days, including the Christmas–New Year shutdown
•Private healthcare, including virtual and in-person care
•Pension scheme with an 8% total contribution (5% employee, 3% employer) on full earnings
•Free daily breakfast, catered lunch, and snacks in the office
•Daily collaboration with engineers, researchers, and product experts building humanoid robotics and AI
•Direct access to founding leadership, input on product direction, and the opportunity to drive key initiatives from day one
•Travel to labs in Boston, San Diego, and Vancouver, and to customer and manufacturing sites
