Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Julie Newman, Vice president of Engineering at Outpost
Q: Why move from a big prime like Boeing to a startup like Outpost?
The ability to implement knowledge end-to-end in a smaller, faster-moving environment, with ownership over whole systems, offers a chance to shape the product and culture directly and scale impact as the company grows.
Julie Newman, Vice president of Engineering at Outpost
Q: What advice would you give to people wanting to break into the space industry?
Start with an openness to mobility and realizing you don't have to know the final end goal right away; gain valuable skills and seek roles that build broad capability, then follow your interests into areas where you can make the biggest impact quickly.
Henry Yu, Founding Software Engineer at Sunday
Q: How does Sunday's data collection strategy differ from traditional robotics data pipelines?
Sunday uses skill capture gloves to gather real-world, diverse data at scale, which is cheaper and safer than teleoperation and yields higher-quality data for training, enabling faster iteration and safer deployment in homes.
Henry Yu, Founding Software Engineer at Sunday
Q: What inspired you to join Sunday Robotics and pursue home robotics?
Henry explains that the founders convinced him after their work on data-centric robotics and teleoperation challenges, recognizing an opportunity to leverage AI to generalize robot behavior in real-world home environments.
Alex Wust, Co-Founder & CEO of Wargdrones
Q: What advice would you give to academics and aspiring entrepreneurs considering starting a company?
Be your authentic self, find people you fit with, and avoid changing who you are to please others; build trust through consistency and clear communication.
