Robots & Pencils, the applied AI engineering partner renowned for high-velocity delivery and measurable outcomes, has revealed plans to open a dedicated Generative & Agentic AI Studio in downtown Bellevue, Washington, in early January 2026. The new location significantly boosts North American delivery capacity and positions the company closer to Amazon headquarters, accelerating client work on Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, AgentCore, and other AWS AI services.
The Bellevue Studio marks a strategic investment in the Pacific Northwest’s deep engineering talent pool and reinforces Robots & Pencils’ commitment to delivering AI-native solutions at speed and scale across the United States.
Organized around the company’s proven Studio model, cross-functional pods of product, engineering, data, and design experts will focus on vertical industries including Education, Energy, Financial Services, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Transportation, and Retail/CPG—enabling rapid launches of AI products every 30 to 45 days.
"The investment in Bellevue and access to deep talent in the Pacific Northwest gives our teams and our clients a powerful new chapter," said Len Pagon Jr., CEO of Robots & Pencils. "The engineering expertise in this region aligns perfectly with our Studio strategy. We see tremendous opportunities to grow our talent base, strengthen delivery, and help organizations reach AI outcomes that advance their businesses."
Jeff Kirk, Executive Vice President of Applied AI, will lead the new studio. "The Studio in Bellevue is a pivotal investment in our client and talent strategy," said Kirk. "Engineers and builders in this region bring the experience and ambition that shape industry-defining solutions. Speed matters, and our Studio structure is designed for launching AI products to market every 30 to 45 days. The Seattle-area strengthens the engineering capacity required to deliver that velocity at scale."
The expansion builds on Robots & Pencils’ global delivery network spanning Cleveland, Calgary, Toronto, Bogotá, and Lviv, while creating a West Coast hub optimized for agentic workflows, intelligent automation, digital modernization, and data-driven innovation.
