You’ll work across disciplines - from motion systems and structures to system integration and user-facing features - to develop reliable, manufacturable, and innovative solutions.

Our product is a complex hardware-software system. Success in this role requires systems thinking, hands-on prototyping, and the ability to bring structure to ambiguous design problems.
