You will join a team dedicated to bringing Apollo to market at scale, tackling the complex challenges like safety, commercialization, and mass production to change the world for the better.Job Summary The Workplace Experience Manager owns the day-to-day experience and operation of Apptronik's Sunnyvale site, an executive- and VIP-heavy location supporting our perception AI and product teams. This person is the face of the workplace and the owner of a site that must be polished, functional, and demo-ready at all times, and personally owns the reception desk as the front-of-house presence for the office.

The role is expected to operate independently within defined guardrails and to follow clear escalation pathways to Facilities leadership for anything structural, financial beyond approved thresholds, safety-related, or outside its lane. Essential Duties and Responsibilities Own and manage the reception desk as the site's front-of-house post, personally staffing it and/or coordinating coverage, greeting and direct...
