Your mission
As an R&D Mechanic, you join the early team and bring our designs to life. You build the prototypes of our humanoid - an industrial-grade machine built for the highest levels of reliability and performance - to the highest standard of precision. You don't just assemble: you improve how every system is built, serviced and tuned.
Key responsibilities
- Precision Assembly: Lead the build of complex mechatronic systems and handle evolving R&D designs with a first-time-right mindset.
- Workshop Ownership: Own the assembly area to the highest standards of cleanliness, tool organization and hardware inventory.
- Quality Control: Lead the inspection of incoming precision parts and verify supplier quality with professional metrology equipment.
- Fabrication & Fixtures: Modify parts and build custom jigs and fixtures that simplify assembly and servicing of the robot.
- Design Feedback: Feed assembly and service insights back to the design engineers to improve every iteration.
Your profile
We seek builders ready to move beyond theory to real deployment: professionals who value precision and reliability as much as innovation.
Must have
Must have
- Experience: 3+ years in high-end precision mechanical assembly (e.g. motorsports, aerospace, medical devices, precision gears or high-end robotics).
- Tool Mastery: Expert-level proficiency with precision hand tools, gauges and measuring equipment.
- Drawing Literacy: Able to read and interpret complex 3D assemblies and technical drawings, including GD&T.
- Quality Control: Experience inspecting parts with precision measuring tools and documenting the results.
- Mindset: You are precise, organized and document your work carefully. You thrive where speed and precision must coexist, and you know there is no room for "good enough".
