Realbotix Corp. (TSX-V: XBOT) (Frankfurt: 76M0.F) (OTC: XBOTF) (“Realbotix” or the “Company”), a leading human-centric AI and humanoid robot manufacturer, is pleased to announce the appointment of Susan Pirzchalski as Head of Robotics.

Susan has been a technical contributor to Realbotix’s robotics architecture for several years. She now joins the Company full-time to lead engineering across mechanical systems, embedded electronics, firmware, sensing, and platform-level integration.

“Susan has been central to the evolution of our robotics hardware and embedded architecture,” said Andrew Kiguel, Chief Executive Officer of Realbotix. “Her deep technical experience and intimate knowledge of our platform are critical as we transition from advanced prototyping into repeatable, production-grade systems.”

Susan brings more than 30 years of experience across electronics design, firmware development, precision mechanical systems, and full product lifecycle execution. She has led and contributed to the architecture of Realbotix’s robotic head platform, including mechanical assembly design, embedded control systems, and integrated vision subsystems featuring camera-enabled robotic ocular components.

This announcement comes as Realbotix’s third major hire of 2026, following Eric Olsen, COO, joining from Agility Robotics and Sue Ennis, joining from Hut 8 Mining. The Company has been expanding its leadership team to scale, with experts delivering targeted strategies and solutions for its two core business units.

Realbotix also announces that Emma Todd will be resigning from the Board of Directors effective March 31, 2026. Ms. Todd has served as a valued member of the Realbotix board, providing guidance and strategic insight as the Company advanced its position at the intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and digital technologies.

“We are grateful to Emma for her support, perspective, and contributions to Realbotix,” said Andrew Kiguel, Chief Executive Officer of Realbotix. “On behalf of the Board and the entire team, I would like to thank her for the time and expertise she brought to the Company and wish her continued success in her future endeavors.”
