## About the role

You’ll connect Cortex to working industrial machines. You’ll design and build control panels, integrate field devices, develop controls applications, and commission systems at customer sites. You’ll also build the internal test systems and reference designs our software team uses to develop the product. What you learn at the machine will become better hardware, clearer documentation, and actionable software improvements. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
