1X is bringing robots out of factories and into the human world. We have cracked the code and engineered a safe, capable, and affordable solution (named EVE) that will be deployed in the immediate future to security, retail, and the food-packaging markets. Backed by Type One Ventures.
About the role
To do this right, we have to solve robotics, AI, software, hardware, manufacturing and operations at the same time, at scale, in a form factor that has to be safe. If you’re inspired by this, you’ll thrive here. We’ve been at this since 2014 and we’re at the point where the hard problems are behind us and the hard work is in front of us.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline
- 2-4 years of experience designing mechanical test fixtures, assembly fixtures, tooling, or similar custom hardware
- Strong 3D CAD and 2D engineering drawing skills, with experience designing parts and assemblies for machining, fabrication, or rapid prototyping
- Experience working with internal machine shops or external manufacturing vendors to turn designs into physical hardware
- Practical understanding of mechanical testing, including loads, load paths, fixturing, interfaces, and safe test setup
- Experience designing fixtures for robotics, electromechanical systems, automotive, aerospace, consumer hardware, or other complex physical products

NEO is our flagship - a general purpose robot designed to move, learn, and operate in the real world alongside real people. We’re not demoing it, we're shipping it. We’re excited to meet you, if this excites you.
If you’ve spent your career working on problems that matter and want to see them actually reach the world - this is that moment. We’re scaling, we’re hiring with intention, and we need people who want to build something that will genuinely change how humans spend their time safely creating abundance for all.
The Test & Validation team makes sure NEO can withstand the real-world conditions it will encounter in homes. We build and operate the test infrastructure, fixtures, and validation systems that...
