Lead AIRoA’s HR function and a small team while shaping HR systems, regulations, labor-risk controls, Money Forward operations, and executive-level people decisions.
About this role
The AI Robot Association (AIRoA) is a general incorporated association founded at the end of 2024 to deliver robot foundation models through a four-year, NEDO-funded national project. Its corporate strategy team is central to running that project, and this staff role supports it.
The work includes setting and carrying out medium- and long-term strategy for the association and building the mechanisms that help physical AI spread in society, acting as PMO or product manager for the NEDO project and other projects, and negotiating and coordinating across industry, government and academia in Japan and overseas. Tasks cover the global rollout strategy toward a first milestone in 2029, dealings with national agencies, member companies and leading overseas firms, and cooperation with university researchers. The exact mission is matched to the person's background.
Applicants need either experience launching new businesses or in business or corporate planning at a consulting firm or operating company, or experience on national-project work. Preferred are experience working with engineers, AI or robotics experience or interest, and the ability to finish deadline-driven projects.
