Role overview
What you'll own

- You'll touch every stage of your hardware, which means real ownership and room to grow quickly.

- Own the supporting analysis: hand calcs, tolerance stack-ups, fastener and material selection, and basic FEA
Requirements and eligibility

- Solid fundamentals: statics, materials, tolerance analysis, fasteners, and basic FEA
- Experience building things: student teams, products that shipped, prototypes that worked
- Hands-on machining experience: we have some really cool machines, and as a small team, engineers do need to make their own parts at times
Preferred, not required
- Experience at a hardware, robotics, aerospace, or automotive company
- CAM experience (Fusion 360) or comfort programming your own toolpaths
- Comfort using AI tools to multiply your own output
