Mind Robotics builds intelligent, broadly capable robots for industrial deployment in high-impact environments. Backed by Accel, Kleiner Perkins and a16z.
About the role
As a Mechanical Design Engineer, you will lead the end-to-end design and development of complex electromechanical hardware and robotic systems. Working in a fast-paced environment, you will rapidly build, test, and iterate on prototypes using 3D printing, CNC machining, and hands-on fabrication. You’ll leverage your deep mechanical intuition to perform core structural, thermal, and tolerance analyses while ensuring designs scale seamlessly through rigorous DFM/DFA practices.
What they're looking for
- Exceptional Mechanical Intuition. You understand how forces, materials, and mechanisms behave instinctively
- 5+ years of experience (or equivalent "hard tech" projects) building complex electromechanical systems and sensors
- Familiarity with rapid prototyping techniques such as 3D Printing, Machining, etc
- High proficiency in SolidWorks, Catia or similar tools
- Hands-on problem-solving approach with ability to iterate quickly
- Experience designing for volume processes (Injection molding, CNC, etc.) and working with contract manufacturers
More about this role
Mind Robotics is building Physical AI for real-world industrial deployment, starting with the factory floor. We believe the hardest problems in AI are solved when researchers and engineers are hands-on with the physical world every day - and we're looking for people who are passionate about robotics, value ownership, and are excited to tackle difficult problems. Join us if you want to move beyond digital intelligence and put intelligence into motion.
