About Machina Labs At Machina Labs, we’re reshaping manufacturing through advanced robotics and machine learning. Our platform uses the largest 6-axis robots on the market to form 2D sheets of metal into complex 3D parts, layer-by-layer.
Traditional sheet metal production was designed for scale, not flexibility. It relies on costly dies and tooling that make lower volume projects prohibitively slow and expensive. We’re changing that. Whether you’re a startup building a few thousand airframes or an automaker prototyping next-generation components, Machina Labs gives you the ability to iterate and manufacture at the speed of software.
With support from the venture arms of Toyota, NVIDIA, and Lockheed Martin, we’re accelerating the future of manufacturing, one where factories are flexible, production is on-demand, and innovation is unconstrained.
About The Role As Quality Lead , you’ll take end-to-end ownership of building and maintaining the systems that ensure our products meet the highest standards of performance and reliability. This is a hands-on, high-visibility role where you’ll partner across engineering, operations, and supply chain to embed quality throughout our manufacturing process.
You will lead Machina’s AS9100D certification journey , establish the framework for continuous improvement, and lay the foundation for a scalable Quality Management System (QMS). This role is ideal for someone who’s ready to step up from senior QE or supplier quality roles into owning a company-wide quality function at a fast-growing startup.
