Wire Harnesses in as little as 7 days. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
This is a role where you own whole machines, not just parts. You'll design the mechanical systems that build harnesses - mechanisms, end effectors, fixtures, tooling - and then integrate motion, controls, and our vision/robotics systems into a machine that actually runs on the floor. You'll take problems from a blank Onshape document through prototyping, bring-up, and debugging, working shoulder-to-shoulder with robotics, controls, and the technicians running the line.
What they're looking for
- A mechanical engineer at any level who has built real things - robots, machines, mechanisms, projects (school, internships, FRC/FSAE, personal builds, or years of professional machine design all count)
- Hands-on and resourceful: happy in CAD and at a workbench with a wrench
- Hungry for ownership and able to learn fast
- Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid iteration
- Excited to work across mechanical, controls, and robotics rather than stay in one lane
- Happier when the machine is running on the floor than when the CAD looks clean
More about this role
Loombotic is the SendCutSend of wire harnesses. Harnesses are inside almost every piece of hardware - robots, aircraft, defense systems, industrial machines - but they're still built by hand, with 6-12 week lead times that stall entire products. We're changing that by building our own instant-quoting software and our own manufacturing line - the robots, vision systems, and tooling that automate work the industry still does by hand. The result: custom harnesses designed, built, and shipped in about a week. Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months.
We don't buy our factory off the shelf - we design and build the machines, fixtures, and tooling that make automated harness production possible. That's what this role does.
