We're an early-stage robotics company building useful robots for everyday environments. We're looking for builders who want high ownership and direct impact.
Most robotics stacks are assembled from existing parts. We start from the ground up — rethinking mechanics, electronics, and autonomy together so that reliable, intelligent operation isn't bolted on, it's built in. Autonomy is the core, not the afterthought.
Structural and mechanism design engineered for real-world deployment conditions.
Custom hardware for sensing, motor control, power management, and low-latency communication.
Perception, state estimation, and closed-loop control for dynamic, unstructured environments.
We are looking for people who take ownership of hard problems, prefer working from first principles, and are energized by the early stage of company building. You don't need to have worked at a big robotics company. You do need to care deeply about the craft of engineering and want your work to have a direct, measurable impact on what we ship.
Systems-level thinkers comfortable spanning hardware and software, with experience shipping physical systems.
Designers with hands-on fabrication and prototyping experience. CAD fluency is table stakes — judgment on tradeoffs is what matters.
PCB design, firmware, motor drives, real-time systems. Experience with robotics-specific constraints is a strong plus.
Perception, planning, state estimation, and controls. We care about production-quality implementations, not just research prototypes.
Strong generalist builders are also welcome. If you can move fast, learn faster, and want to work across the stack — we want to talk.
Joining a company at the earliest stage is a fundamentally different experience than joining at Series B or later. The decisions that define what a company becomes — its architecture, its culture, its priorities — are made in the first months. You won't be inheriting someone else's system. You'll be designing it.
Your work will directly shape the product and the company. No abstraction layers between your decisions and what ships.
Technical decisions made now will compound for years. You'll have a genuine voice in the choices that define the system.
We don't bolt solutions together. We reason from fundamentals — which means faster, deeper learning than most environments allow.
No management overhead. No ticket queues. You'll work directly with the founder and early team on what matters most.
People who join early and contribute to building the foundation have the opportunity to grow with the company as it scales. Early engineers become technical leads, architects, and domain owners — not just contributors.
Compensation reflects the stage and the contribution. Early team members share meaningfully in the upside of what they help create.
This is not a polished company with established processes looking for execution. This is the moment where the foundational choices are still open — and the people in the room for those choices will have shaped something real, regardless of what comes next.
You'll move fast, work across domains, and develop a breadth of technical judgment that is extremely difficult to develop in a large organization. Startups at this stage are among the fastest learning environments that exist in engineering.
We operate in a tight build → deploy → learn → build loop. Everything we do is grounded in solving real problems — and building a real business while doing it.
We don't iterate in simulation. We ship, observe real-world behavior, and feed that back into the next build cycle. Speed of learning is our competitive advantage.
We validate assumptions with hardware and data, not slides. When something doesn't work, we understand why before moving on.
We build for operational environments where failure has real consequences. If it doesn't work in the field, it doesn't count.
We care about commercial outcomes. Solving hard problems and making money doing it are not in tension — they're the point.
We're looking for engineers and builders who want to work on genuinely hard problems at the earliest stage of a serious robotics company. If that's you — or if you want to learn more before deciding — reach out. There's no formal application process. Just start a conversation.
Send us a note about what you've built, what you care about, and why this is the right moment for you to join an early-stage robotics company.
Not ready to commit full-time? We're open to early collaborators, advisors, and part-time contributors who want to stay close to what we're building.
If you're curious, have questions, or just want to understand where we're headed — we're happy to talk. No pitch required.
Robots that work in the real world.
