About the role

The Harnessing team sits at the heart of bringing NEO to life - every wire we route and every connection we make is what lets the robot sense, move, and act safely in someone's home.
We're a hands-on group that takes real pride in craftsmanship, because the quality of our work is felt in every robot that ships.
If you want your work to directly shape a product that lives alongside families, this is where it happens.

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.
you treat error-free, repeatable work as the baseline and take genuine pride in the quality of what you build.

High school diploma or equivalent, with 2-3+ years of direct experience in wire harness fabrication and assembly.
Proven ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and assembly drawings.
Proficiency with hand tools (crimpers, strippers, heat guns) and measurement tools (multimeter).
Strong soldering skills and solid troubleshooting ability to diagnose open/short circuits and connection issues (J-STD-001 is ideal but not a deal breaker).
Experience with harness board (breakout board) design or layout, and basic CAD for viewing drawings.

Associate's degree in Electrical Engineering Technology, Electronics, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
Awareness of signal types (digital, analog, power) and shielding/grounding concepts.
Familiarity with IPC-7711 / 7722 rework standards.

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
$35/hr - $48/hr + Equity

Deliver wire harnesses and cable assemblies that consistently meet IPC-620 acceptance criteria, with first-pass yield held to a high, measurable standard.
Own continuity and fault-isolation testing on completed harnesses so that defects are caught and resolved before assemblies move downstream.
Support a mix of work that changes day to day - most often building harnesses for prototype testing, and at times assembly and rework for production - and shift gears smoothly between the two.
Perform on-bot reworks and on-bot debugging with confidence, isolating and resolving issues directly on the robot.
Reduce build and rework time on recurring harness builds by improving process, fixturing, and documentation alongside engineering.
Maintain accurate, traceable records of work performed, surfacing design and process issues early enough to influence design-for-manufacturability decisions.
Work independently with minimal hand-holding, taking verbal direction well and running with it to keep the workspace safe, organized, and audit-ready.
Our mission is to create an abundant supply of physical labor through safe, intelligent humanoids that work alongside people.
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.
