We’re building robots to bring automation to construction, making affordable, beautiful, high-quality housing possible at scale. We’re looking for a mechatronics engineer who’s a maker at heart, with a bias for speed and simplicity, who can design a robot on paper and build one in real life.
In this role, you’ll own entire mechatronic systems from idea through to production. You’ll be involved in every stage of the engineering process: scoping broad, novel capabilities, running back-of-envelope calculations, and driving hardware design through prototyping, testing, and validation. This includes actuator and sensor selection, system integration and firmware development. You’ll debug hardware issues both at our office and onsite, test on live construction sites, and iterate toward robust, scalable designs. Once you’ve proven you can own tightly scoped projects, you’ll lead broader problem spaces with a small multidisciplinary team.
The challenges are real: full on-site autonomy, construction-scale payloads, reliable operation at height, and millimetre-level positioning across our stack. We want people genuinely excited to tackle these alongside a capable, supportive team.
Our approach focuses on identifying key risks and attacking them through rapid prototyping, not lengthy design cycles. You’ll have high autonomy and minimal drag: few meetings, no unnecessary approvals.
