Field AI is transforming how robots interact with the real world. We are building risk-aware, reliable, and field-ready AI systems that address the most complex challenges in robotics, unlocking the full potential of embodied intelligence. We go beyond typical data-driven approaches or pure transformer-based architectures, and are charting a new course, with already-globally-deployed solutions delivering real-world results and rapidly improving models through real-field applications.
FieldAI is seeking a hands-on, experienced Senior Controller to lead and scale our accounting function. Reporting directly to the CFO, you will play a key role in building financial infrastructure, driving accurate reporting, and partnering across the business to enable growth. This is a foundational hire — ideal for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments and has built accounting processes from the ground up.
