Mechanical Engineer
Mechanical design engineer job in Santa Rosa, CA
Mechanical Engineer (Robotics)
We are partnering with a robotics company building complex electro-mechanical systems where mechanical design directly determines real-world performance. This role is for someone who doesn't just design parts, but owns motion, reliability, and scale.
What You'll Do
Own the end-to-end mechanical design of complex electro-mechanical systems with moving parts
Design and prototype custom mechanisms and actuators under aggressive timelines
Drive concepts from first prototype through high-volume production
Personally design parts for volume manufacturing processes, including:
Injection molding
Die casting
Stamping / sheet metal
Extrusion
Powder metal / MIM
Partner closely with contract manufacturers (CMs) to ensure DFM, reliability, and cost targets are met
Build systems that are not just elegant but robust, testable, and shippable at scale
What We're Looking For
Exceptionally strong mechanical intuition, you understand how things move, fail, and improve
Proven ability to design and prototype quickly without sacrificing rigor
Track record of shipping reliable, hardware products at scale
Deep hands-on experience designing custom mechanisms, joints, transmissions, and actuators
Experience owning mechanical architecture for complex systems with dynamic loads and tight tolerances
Comfortable operating across ambiguity, tight timelines, and high expectations
Required Background
Currently working at a robotics company (hands-on mechanical role)
Background in electro-mechanical systems with real moving parts (not CAD-only work)
Experience taking designs from concept → prototype → volume production
Ideal Signals
Designed robotic arms, legs, mobile platforms, end-effectors, or actuation systems
Personally responsible for motor selection, gearing, kinematics, or load paths
Close collaboration with electrical and controls teams
Bias for execution and ownership over documentation and theory
Founding Product Engineer
Mechanical design engineer job in Fremont, CA
A Product Engineer in this role will focus on building and scaling a high-quality AI agent product with strong UX, full‑stack development, and close user collaboration, and should bring 2+ years of startup experience, strong TypeScript skills, and a deep interest in the AI agent space while helping build “high-taste” products for self-learning AI agents and playing a key role in scaling the product to meet growing customer demand while maintaining an exceptional user experience in a rapidly evolving AI agent ecosystem.
Responsibilities
Collaborate closely with a product designer to ship new features and refine existing user flows based on customer feedback.
Engage directly with customers to understand needs, gather feedback, validate ideas, and pitch new features.
Develop core product features across the stack (front-end, back-end, and database work) with a focus on quality and reliability.
Experiment with new features and technologies, build quick demos for the team, and productionize promising solutions.
Contribute to product and design reviews, ensuring the experience is intuitive, polished, and delightful to use.
Requirements
2+ years of experience in product, full‑stack, or front‑end engineering at technology startups (Seed to Series E).
Proficiency in TypeScript, with experience either across the stack or in front‑end‑leaning roles.
Experience at a high‑taste product company or at an AI/agent‑native startup.
Undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
What we're looking for
Strong product sense and attention to user experience; you care about how things feel, not just how they work.
High agency and ownership mindset-you proactively find problems, propose solutions, and ship iteratively.
Genuine excitement about the AI agent space and improving agent behavior for real users.
Comfort working in a fast-moving, experimental environment with tight feedback loops from users and teammates.
