About the role

Without us, there's no product in customers' homes.
The cleaner and more capable our manufacturing process, the faster NEO gets into homes.
Stand up and sustain manufacturing processes for mechanical assemblies, machined components, and wire harnesses that meet quality, yield, and cycle time targets

We're building humanoid robots that work in home - doing the chores, handling the tasks, and giving people their time back.
NEO is our flagship - a home robot designed to move, learn, and operate in the real world alongside real people.
We're scaling, we're hiring with intention, and we need people who want to build something that will genuinely change how humans spend their time - safely creating abundance for all.

Hands-on experience in manufacturing, assembly, machining, or wire harness production
Experience troubleshooting mechanical and/or electrical production issues
Working knowledge of crimping, connector assembly, harness routing, or precision mechanical assembly
Experience performing inspections, in-process verification, or production testing (continuity, isolation, hipot, or functional testing ideal but not a deal breaker)

Experience supporting new product introduction (NPI) or production ramp environments
Familiarity with SPC, yield tracking, and basic data analysis tools
Exposure to robotics, automation cells, or automotive/aerospace harness manufacturing
Experience supporting ECO implementation and first article inspections

Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
Generous paid time off, company holidays, and parental leave
Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Savings Accounts (HSA) options
Commuter benefits (transit and parking)
Short-term and long-term disability, and life insurance
Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental health, financial, and personal support
$30/hr - $50/hr + Equity

Drive measurable improvements in scrap, rework, first-pass yield, and throughput through hands-on troubleshooting and SPC-driven analysis
Validate engineering changes through first article inspections and pilot builds, ensuring revisions reach production without disrupting flow
Maintain fixtures, harness boards, automated cells, and test stations so production never stops for preventable equipment issues
Own root cause investigations on production failures and close them out with corrective actions that stick
Hands-on operator who is equally comfortable on the floor with a torque wrench, a crimper, and a multimeter as you are pulling production data into a spreadsheet
Sharp diagnostic instinct - you can look at a failed harness, a misaligned assembly, or a flagged test result and quickly narrow down where the problem actually lives
Bias toward documentation and repeatability - you don't just fix things, you make sure they stay fixed
Cross-functional communicator who can translate between operators, design engineers, and quality without friction
High personal standards for build quality, safety, and workmanship - you notice the things others walk past
We've been at this since 2014 and we're at the point where the hard problems are behind us and the hard work is in front of us.
