About 1X
We’re an AI and robotics company based in Palo Alto, California, on a mission to build a truly abundant society through general‑purpose robots capable of performing any kind of work autonomously.
We believe that to truly understand the world and grow in intelligence, humanoid robots must live and learn alongside us. That’s why we’re focused on developing friendly home robots designed to integrate seamlessly into everyday life.
Role Overview
As Director of Product Safety and Regulatory Counsel, you will own the intersection of product liability law and technical safety assurance for embodied AI systems. You will collaborate directly with engineering and safety leaders to advise on risk acceptance and deployment decisions, while shaping the company’s legal and public-facing posture around robot safety. This is a mission-critical legal role at the cutting edge of AI, robotics, and safety law helping define how society safely deploys intelligent machines in the real world. You will report to the General Counsel.

Strong understanding of AI/ML systems, cybersecurity risks, or complex technical products
Experience supporting incident response, investigations, or safety-related disputes
Proven ability to work cross-functionally with engineering, legal, and executive teams
