We streamline short-distance material transport through cost-efficient and flexible autonomous robotics.
Why join us
We’re passionate about applying state-of-the-art technology to solve real-world problems and become the brains behind an automation revolution
We’re fast and thrive on making an impact
You get to work with a diverse team of super talented people across USA and Germany
You’ll also get to build a growing startup and by default do and learn a tonne
What you'll do
In this role, you will be the bridge between our high-level software and the physical robot. You will work on a diverse range of tasks that span the entire lifecycle of embedded systems—from initial design and prototyping to troubleshooting hardware in the field.
More specifically, you’ll:
- Bring Hardware to Life: Participate in the bring-up, testing, and validation of new equipment and sensor modules.
- Hands-on Prototyping: Design custom cables and physically produce samples/harnesses to iterate on hardware designs.
- PCB Design: Contribute to the schematic capture and layout of printed circuit boards that power our next-gen robots.
- Troubleshooting: Perform root-cause analysis and "first-aid" on robots to identify and fix electronic or mechanical failures.
- Firmware Development: Assist in designing and implementing firmware that allows our robots to interact reliably with their environment.
What you bring
- You are currently studying Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Embedded Systems, or a related field.
- You aren't afraid to pick up a soldering iron or a multimeter; you enjoy the "physical" side of engineering.
- Familiarity with PCB design tools (e.g., KiCad, Altium)
- Optionally you have experience in programming in C++
- You enjoy the "detective work" involved in troubleshooting complex robotic systems.
- Availability of 20 hours per week
About us
Our team is distributed around the world and comes from strong, diverse work and cultural backgrounds. From Google, Apple, Bosch, Lyft, and Amazon, our technical team are experts in AI, robotics, self-driving vehicles, and logistics.
