We are a venture-backed manufacturing startup building the most advanced automated production facilities in the United States. We are on a mission to make American manufacturing economically viable — through intelligent machinery, automation, and a relentless focus on execution.
We are early, we are moving fast, and we are looking for exceptional people who want to build something that matters.
We're hiring our first Mechanical Engineer — someone who will help design and build large-scale industrial manufacturing equipment from the ground up and, over time, grow into leading the mechanical engineering function. This is a hands-on, ownership-heavy role for someone who moves comfortably between CAD and the shop floor.
Design mechanical systems and assemblies for large-scale industrial manufacturing equipment, from concept through production-ready builds
Generate detailed part drawings, work orders, and BOMs to hand off to fabrication and build technicians
Work directly alongside build technicians on the shop floor to guide assembly, troubleshoot fit/function issues, and iterate in real time
Own the design-to-manufacture handoff process, ensuring designs are buildable, documented, and repeatable
Collaborate cross-functionally with electrical and controls engineers — including remote teammates — to integrate mechanical systems into complete machine builds
Help establish mechanical engineering standards, processes, and team culture as the function grows
4+ years of mechanical engineering experience in a hands-on, build-oriented environment
Proficiency in 3D CAD (SolidWorks or equivalent) and generation of manufacturing drawings and work orders
Demonstrated experience taking a mechanical design from concept through fabrication and assembly
Comfortable working directly with machinists and build technicians on the shop floor
Familiarity with large-scale or heavy industrial equipment design
Effective communicator and collaborator in a distributed team environment — comfortable with async communication and remote-first workflows
Flexible with schedule and hours; thrives in a startup environment where priorities shift and urgency is real
Experience at an early-stage hard tech or deep tech startup
Prior experience on a small team where you wore multiple hats
Exposure to high-speed rotating machinery or precision mechanical systems
Any prior team lead or mentorship experience
Willingness to travel as needed for vendor visits, factory acceptance testing, and on-site equipment commissioning
Comfort with a startup pace — this role demands flexibility, self-direction, and a bias toward getting things done over waiting for perfect conditions
