Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

1 transfer filing in the last year, covering 1 worker. Median labor-condition decision: 8 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • Our robots take on the tedious, hazardous, and ergonomically demanding work that has kept manufacturing dependent on a shrinking skilled workforce, delivering superhuman performance.
  • Our systems are in active production today, adapting autonomously to real geometries, real materials, and real process variation without reprogramming.
  • We hire people who want to solve hard physical problems at an industrial scale.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with project teams and internal stakeholders to understand manufacturing processes, requirements, and constraints, gathering CAD files, measurements, and documentation needed for design.
  • Build 3D CAD assemblies and own robotic manufacturing cell design end to end, working with software design and mechatronics teams to optimize for reachability, cycle time, and efficiency.
  • Design and iterate on robotic workcells, tools, and end-of-arm tooling (EOAT), partnering with sensor and peripheral vendors and ensuring EOAT compliance with ISO/TR 20218-1 safety guidelines.
  • Design hardware and mechanisms for six-axis robotic systems, including transporter mechanisms (rails), and perform structural analysis and simulation to validate design integrity.
  • Prototype hardware with Design for Manufacturability (DFM) in mind, using 3D printers, CNC machines, and other tools as appropriate.
  • Own selection of electrical, mechanical, and pneumatic hardware components, and work with electrical and software teams to integrate motors, sensors, and cabling within mechanical assemblies.
  • Lead mechanical risk assessments and ensure designs meet core industrial safety standards, including ISO 10218-1/-2 and ANSI/A3 R15.06.
  • Define project requirements and validate feasibility with internal and external teams
  • Review BOMs for completeness and maintain accurate records in PDM to support inventory management and deployment.
  • Define project requirements and validate feasibility with internal and external teams; coordinate material procurement for in-house testing prior to deployment.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree or higher in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent work experience.
  • Demonstrated experience with 3D solid modeling, analysis, and development of 2D manufacturing drawings
  • Familiarity with motion control systems, robotics programming, and industrial facilities and equipment.
  • Ability to solve technical problems effectively, efficiently, and independently.
  • Willingness to travel to customer sites as required by the role.

Nice to have

  • Experience with industrial robot transporter design using Preston-Eastin or Güdel tracks.
  • Industry experience within a manufacturing environment working with industrial automation, process development, or manufacturing engineering.
  • Experience programming 6DOF robots for surface finishing applications such as sanding, grinding, or blasting.
  • Defense or government industry experience.
  • This policy applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including recruiting, hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leaves of absence, compensation and training.
  • We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
  • We encourage and embrace applicants of all backgrounds to apply!
  • GrayMatter Robotics is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities.

Compensation

  • This policy applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including recruiting, hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leaves of absence, compensation and training.

Visa & Work Authorization
