Who We Are
Persona’s founding leadership—CEO Nicolaus Radford, CTO Dr. Jerry Pratt, and COO Jide Akinyode—knows what it’s like to engineer for extreme environments. We’ve put robotic systems undersea and in outer space. We’ve been major contributors to 15+ humanoid projects, placed in international challenges, and authored numerous impactful robotics research papers. Now, alongside a world-class team of engineers, we’re tackling a new challenge: building the world’s toughest humanoid.
Our Vision
To create a world where heavy-duty humanoid robots can work side-by-side with humans to tackle complex tasks across society. Persona is reshaping the future of work—one where safety, efficiency, and human-machine collaboration augments human potential.
Join the Team
Persona’s founders have been in the field since humanoids were far from commercially viable. Now that embodied AI is a clear path to victory, we’re hiring talented engineers who can’t wait to put tough humanoids to work. Visit our careers page to see open positions and apply.
