Origin builds a general-purpose construction robot for interior finishing trades like drywall and painting. Its stack pairs ROS 2, MoveIt and Isaac Sim with vision-language models (OpenVLA, LLaVA, CLIP) and Jetson/TensorRT edge inference, which points to learned manipulation policies deployed on-robot. Accelerating, engineering-heavy hiring alongside import/export and dangerous-goods work suggests a shift from pilots toward cross-border hardware supply.
Origin is a privately held robotics company founded in 2025 and headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, with 51–200 employees. It develops an AI-driven robotic system that operates power tools alongside human crews to automate interior finishing work such as drywall finishing and painting. The company sells to general contractors and trade contractors, and its robots already operate on live job sites in New York City. Its hiring spans engineering, operations, data, logistics and marketing, with roles posted in India.
Origin uses ROS 2, MoveIt 2, Isaac Sim, Gazebo, Python and C++, plus PyTorch, JAX, OpenVLA and LLaVA for AI, and Jetson, TensorRT and CUDA for on-robot inference, with EtherCAT and CANopen for motion control.
Yes. Hiring is accelerating and engineering dominates open roles, spanning mid, senior and lead levels, with smaller openings in ops, data, marketing, logistics, finance and legal. Roles are listed in India.
Origin is developing robotic drywall finishing, 3D perception pipelines, sensor fusion algorithms, embedded compute optimization for its robots, and field deployment playbooks, plus global import and export operations.
