About Machina Labs

At Machina Labs, we’re reshaping manufacturing through advanced robotics and machine learning. Our platform uses the largest 6-axis robots on the market to form 2D sheets of metal into complex 3D parts, layer-by-layer.

Traditional sheet metal production was designed for scale, not flexibility. It relies on costly dies and tooling that make lower volume projects prohibitively slow and expensive. We’re changing that. Whether you’re a startup building a few thousand airframes or an automaker prototyping next-generation components, Machina Labs gives you the ability to iterate and manufacture at the speed of software.

With support from the venture arms of Toyota, NVIDIA, and Lockheed Martin, we’re accelerating the future of manufacturing, one where factories are flexible, production is on-demand, and innovation is unconstrained.

About the Role

As an early member of our small team, you will own a significant portion of our product and the company. As a Senior Automation Systems Engineer, you will be in charge of designing, developing, and operating robotic systems that enable the next generation of manufacturing automation. Ideally, you are someone who has worked as a robotic integration engineer and excited about enabling new manufacturing technologies by integrating fast-paced advancements in technologies such as artificial intelligence and computational geometry developed by our team.

You will work with both outside vendors and team members to design, integrate, and troubleshoot custom industrial robotic systems. You will be pioneering development of new robotic end-effectors, sensors, and novel manufacturing operations.

You are in charge of purchasing and installing industrial robotic arms, integrating tooling and sensors, developing and maintaining control and safety PLC systems, and working on closed loop control software in our new manufacturing cells. In our small, yet quickly expanding team, your input will directly impact team composition and direction of the product. A high degree of autonomy, leadership ability, and technical experience is required.
