## About the role

As a Systems Engineer at Mill, you will help characterize, understand, and improve the performance of our next-generation commercial food recycler. This is a hands-on individual contributor role on a small team. You’ll work closely with our test engineers to turn experimental data into clear conclusions, review and draft changes to the Engineering Requirements Document (ERD), and take ownership of specific subsystems from characterization through design improvement.

- Familiarity with electromechanical components such as fans, blowers, heaters, valves, and sensors
- BS in Mechanical, Thermal, Process, Chemical, or a related engineering field
