Job Summary
Company Overview
Each year 2.5 trillion hours are spent on household chores. At Matic were on a mission to recapture that lost time and were doing it by revolutionizing home robotics.
Our first product also called Matic is a Wall-E-esque floor cleaning robot. Weve built what amounts to full self-driving in the home with real-time 3D mapping adaptive path-tracking and a precise semantic understanding of the home. Our breakthroughs in spatial AI allow Matic to work reliably in real homes using only RGB cameras and neural networks running on-device.
Privacy First
What happens in the home stays in the home. Our robots are private by design with all data processing performed by the robot itself not in the cloud.
Our Approach
Before the iPhone consumers adopted several distinct devices; cell phones PDAs and portable music players each served a particular need. We believe in a similar progression for home robotics starting with single-purpose robots and building iteratively toward more complex capabilities over time.
Our Culture
Matic is a tight-knit and collaborative team singularly focused on building products our customers will cherish. Were ultra-hardworking people committed to solving tough problems that save precious time and energy.
About the role
As a Manufacturing Design Engineer (MDE) you will work at the intersection of R&D and production translating product designs into robust scalable manufacturing solutions. You will use CAD tools to design fixtures tooling and equipment develop assembly processes and optimize workflows for high-volume production.
If youre passionate about great design strong problem-solving and getting the details right wed love to talk about how you can help us pioneer innovation in the home robotics space.
What Youll Do
