Your mission
Robots couldn't handle soft materials. We fixed that.
Now we're scaling it into reality, and we need the sharpest engineering minds: the ones who turn breakthrough ideas into machines that hold up.
At sewts, we build the intelligence that lets robots manipulate deformable materials — textiles, towels, cables — with human-like precision. Our systems are already deployed in production across Europe and expanding into the US.
We are building a foundational technology stack called sewts.JUPITER. JUPITER uses genAI to realistically simulate the behavior of deformable and soft objects, creating the computer vision models and grasping strategies behind our machines. Based on our physical AI, for the first time ever, robots can handle soft and deformable materials. With over €10M in funding, we will bring automation into untapped industries: cloth manufacturing, textiles handling, recycling, and e-commerce.
This is where AI leaves the screen and enters the physical world.
And in the physical world, nothing forgives you.
About the Role
The software gives our robots a brain. You give them a body that survives.
As our Robot Bodybuilder (Mechanical Engineer), you design the machine cells and mechanics behind the hardest task in robotics: handling soft, deformable materials. You take ideas from first sketch to systems running in production — robot cells, grippers, and mechanisms that hold up in demanding industrial environments, on products like sewts.VELUM and sewts.ORDO.
You work shoulder to shoulder with the software / application teams who give our robots human-like perception. Your job: make sure the physical side never lets the intelligence down. What you build becomes the backbone of robots pushing automation into spaces it has never reached before.
