Great Robots
About the project
I work leading product design for autonomous systems/Robotics. In my role, I kept hitting the same wall: finding talent with specific robotics and autonomy skills was incredibly difficult. Try searching for someone with ROS2 experience, perception algorithms expertise, or flight control systems knowledge on traditional job boards. It's nearly impossible. That's why I built GreatRobots.ai. It's a specialized talent platform for the robotics and autonomy industry, connecting companies building autonomous systems (drones, self-driving vehicles, underwater robots) with engineers and designers who have the exact technical skills they need. The biggest win with Floot? I went from concept to something I could share with industry colleagues in days, not months. No wrestling with backend infrastructure or deployment complexity, just fast iteration on the core search and matching features. The speed made all the difference. In robotics and autonomy, we can't spend months building something only to discover it doesn't solve the real problem. Floot let me validate the idea quickly, gather real feedback, and keep iterating.
