• Mechanical and Electrical Engineering B.S. with an M.S. in either field.
• Experience with robotic systems in either a professional or personal setting.
• Capability to iteratively design using prototyping tools eg. CAD, laser cutter, 3D printing, CNC machines, Eagle PCB.
• Knowledge of relevant manufacturing processes for production and prototype. Able to work extended hours and weekends as needed.
• Be able to take initiative on other roles the company needs to succeed.
• Working knowledge of low level programming for 6DOF arms or other robotic systems.

As you will be working directly with the founder, expect to learn a lot in a short amount of time. This is a "get your hands dirty" technical leadership position. There will be long hours and days where nothing works; but in the end you will be working on multi-million dollar product in a room full of people that appreciate you.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• You will own the designs from cradle to grave and be responsible for their technical success.
• Initial concept, design, GD&T drawings, assessment of mass, cost, manufacturing feasibility, function, rapid prototyping using 3D printing, etc.
• Develop parametric design concepts and production designs Optimize the concepts and designs with analytical and physical modelling/simulation
• Interface with suppliers for manufacturing feasibility, validation, and other engineering activities as specified for the assigned commodity.
• Help deliver world-class artisanship, fit/finish and support for successful product launch.
• Assemble and install machines to customers across the nation. Travel is approximately 1-5% of your time.
