You own the mechanical design of our robots. Mechanisms, frames, motion systems. You decide what we build, and you are accountable for it working in a warehouse every day. With that said, you are not starting from scratch. We have 80% of v1. We need to get v1 in the field at our first deployments and iterate from there.
Experience is valued. However creativity, intuition, proclivity for action are more important.
Compensation:
