About the role

  • This is intentionally a hands-on ownership role.
  • You'll touch every stage of your hardware, which means real ownership and room to grow quickly.

Responsibilities

  • Own a subassembly and its parts through design, hand calcs, FEA, fabrication, assembly, and validation
  • Own the supporting analysis: hand calcs, tolerance stack-ups, fastener and material selection, and basic FEA
  • Build, assemble, and test your own parts on test fixtures and on the robot
  • 1-4 years of mechanical design experience (exceptional new grads with strong project or internship work are welcome to apply)
  • Experience building things: student teams, products that shipped, prototypes that worked
  • Hands-on machining experience: we have some really cool machines, and as a small team, engineers do need to make their own parts at times
  • CAM experience (Fusion 360) or comfort programming your own toolpaths
  • Comfort using AI tools to multiply your own output
  • you'll design a part, do the analysis to back it up, make it, test it on the robot, and turn a failed test into a revised part the same week.

Nice to have

  • Experience at a hardware, robotics, aerospace, or automotive company
