## About the role

Own mechanical design for core subsystems, from initial concept through high-volume production. Prototype rapidly and iterate based on real-world testing and failure analysis.

## What they're looking for

- Extremely strong mechanical intuition — you understand how parts, forces, tolerances, and mechanisms behave instinctively
- Ability to design and prototype on aggressive timelines, moving quickly from concept to functional hardware
- Experience building reliable products that shipped at scale, with a clear understanding of manufacturing constraints and real-world robustness
- Experience working directly with contract manufacturers (CMs) and personally designing components for volume processes:
- Injection molding
- Die casting
