Robotics Engineers - Ground-Floor Hardware Venture

Robotics Engineers – Ground-Floor Hardware Venture
Austin, TX – On-Site, collaborative, tool-in-hand work
Mechatronics | Embedded Systems | Rapid Prototyping | Materials | PCB Design
Permanent | No corporate fluff – just raw creativity

This is one of those rare, ground-floor opportunities to build the future of robotics from scratch—hands-on, experimental, and with a bold mission at its core: make advanced robotics accessible to everyone.

We’re partnering with a venture-backed startup in Austin, assembling a world-class team of engineers, makers, and misfits to tackle the hard problems in robotics across hardware, software, and everything in between.

Our client is hiring across several key areas and looking for technically versatile people who love solving real problems in the physical world.

Current focus areas include:

• Mechatronics & Robotics – low-level control, actuators, kinematics, firmware integration
• Design & Build – CAD, hardware iteration, hands-on prototyping
• Electronics & Embedded – PCB design, embedded firmware, hardware bring-up
• Materials & Manufacturing – experimental materials, small-scale manufacturing, tooling

Open to experienced engineers across mid to senior levels
 
What you’ll be joining:

• A zero-fluff, high-autonomy engineering environment
• A team that thinks with their hands—rapid, iterative, and collaborative
• A space where breaking things is part of the process
• A mission to make robotics radically more accessible and capable

What’s in it for you:

• Ground-floor entry to something with serious scale potential
• Massive scope to design, test, break, and rebuild
• Access to top-tier tools and open-ended challenges
• Real ownership, real problems, real results
