From Day 1, you'll be able to work with an experienced founding team backed by top-tier investors. Monumental is based near Artis zoo in the Plantage, in the city center of Amsterdam. We have a beautiful office with an in-house workshop and robot testing facility. We're explicitly not a hybrid or remote-first company: we enjoy collaborating 5 days a week at the office. You can read more on why we believe you should spend your time working on construction, and learn more about our vision and company. You might also enjoy seeing this video by Andreas Klinger of what our office environment looks like. About you and this role We are looking for a mechanical engineer to join our team of hardware and software engineers, trying to bring robots and automation to the construction industry to create affordable, beautiful, high quality housing for everyone. You are a maker, who enjoys building physical things from start to finish, with a bias for speed and simplicity. You enjoy being involved in and contributing to the entire engineering process: asking the right questions to scope a problem, doing back of the envelope calculations, fabricating parts in our workshop, testing your design live on a construction site and iterating on it to produce a robust and scalable design. Once you've shown you can own tightly scoped projects at high speed, you'll have the opportunity to lead broader, cross-cutting problem spaces with a small multidisciplinary team. We're tackling some of the hardest problems in construction robotics: full on-site autonomy, lifting construction-scale payloads, reliable operation at height, and millimetre-level positioning accuracy across our entire technology stack. We're looking for people who are genuinely excited to lead these efforts alongside a highly capable and supportive team. Our approach to building robots has focused on identifying the key areas that need de-risking and tackling them head-on through rapid prototyping, avoiding lengthy design processes. This has allowed us to achieve remarkable results in a surprisingly short amount of time, defying conventional expectations. If our approach excites you, this role could be a great fit for your interests and skills. We will offer you an environment that will allow you to thrive using this approach: you will have a high amount of autonomy and we will work hard to not slow you down with company meetings, unnecessary spending approvals, or other processes. If you like the sound of this, you should read Niall's Substack about why he moved country to make construction robots to solve Europe's housing crisis. What You'll Be Working On Imagine a fleet of autonomous robots rolling onto a construction site in the morning and by sundown, a fully built, beautiful home stands ready for a family to move in. That's the future we're building. Today, our robot systems are already constructing real homes across the Netherlands at scale. But we're just getting started. Your work won't be about incremental improvements, you'll tackle broad and novel problems that unlock autonomous construction: * Pushing toward full robot autonomy for our masonry systems: automated wall-anchor installation and mortar pointing to produce beautiful brickwork. Autonomous lift platforms and fully automated material-supply enabling our fleet to work uninterrupted across large, messy sites. * Designing for extreme reliability: our robots need to be tough enough to survive months of harsh construction conditions, yet serviceable and redeployable in under 24 hours. * Building next-gen hardware to expand what our robots can do: higher-precision brick placement, larger payloads, expanded build envelopes, hot-swappable end effectors, and operation in tight, constrained spaces like scaffolding. * Developing lift systems to autonomously and safely lift 1000 kg loads to 10 meters. * Getting hands-on in the field: you'll join deployments where we're building real homes, whilst stress-testing systems and uncovering the edge-case problems that can only be found in the field. This will help you determine new critical features to unlock and learn what our product needs long-term. We're looking for engineers who take ownership end-to-end and love tackling problems that don't fit neatly into traditional mechanical engineering boundaries. This involves: * Designing hardware concepts from scratch. You should feel comfortable identifying and defining the key requirements to develop an MVP and work towards it. You should bias towards removing unnecessary constraints to quickly develop concepts. * Where necessary, decide on materials and simulate static and dynamic loads, stresses, and vibrations using hand calculations or using FEA tools. * Fabricate a proof-of-concept prototype in the shortest amount of time: * Source all required components; * Fabricate the necessary parts in our workshop whether they're 3D printed or require CNC milling or turning; * Assemble and bring up functional prototypes: * Pull together all required components and fabricate any custom parts-whether 3D-printed, CNC-milled, or turned-to create a fast proof-of-concept. * Integrate and validate the actuators and electronics your prototype needs, including sensors, motors, solenoids, encoders, and related hardware. * Write or adapt simple embedded code (Arduino, ESP32, etc.) to bring up the electronics, run basic tests, and verify mechanisms. * While you'll have support from our in-house electronics experts to productise successful concepts, we're looking for someone who's confident building quick, scrappy prototypes more-or-less independently, while collaborating closely with the team where needed. * Own testing the prototype, iterating on your designs where necessary, and sometimes throwing things out and starting over again. * You should enjoy fast-iteration cycles. Our favourite tradition is showing off our new hardware successes and failures in our friday show and tell. * Work with our software and perception engineers and integrate designs into our software and perception stack, making them truly autonomous. * Spend time on construction sites, both seeing how your designs perform in the real world and for inspiration of what we should be improving next. * Once successful, you will productize the prototype: * Produce clean CADs in OnShape following best practices; * Produce technical drawings, documentation and other artifacts to aid small series production and assembly. * Work closely with the assembly technicians to understand how you can 10x production of your design. What We're Looking For * Someone with a bias for action: you build fast, iterate in quick sprints and focus on de-risking what matters most. You're comfortable developing hardware at software speed, continuously refining requirements through early testing and deployment. * A proven record of being a builder and being able to work autonomously: you can point us to example of shipped projects where you were the driving force of getting something done. This can be in a professional context, in a top student ("dream") team, or even just personal side projects. * Experience in designing and delivering products from concept up to low-volume production. Exposure to high-volume manufacturing is a plus. * Proficiency in rapid prototyping, 3D printing, machining, and milling to make product designs a reality. * Deep knowledge of mechanical systems and structural dynamics: e.g. statics, mechanics of materials, dynamics, vibrations, material science, and controls. * Expertise with 3D CAD modeling with complex parts and assemblies, e.g. OnShape, Solidworks, or Siemens NX. * Strong in mechanical/structural calculations. You're comfortable moving fast using first principles approaches to problems and hand calcs to de-risk designs, and disciplined about using simulations only when they actually add value. * Experience selecting, sourcing, and integrating electronics components (e.g. actuators, sensors, cameras) into hardware design. * Experience owning problems that sit within broad problem spaces, across the product life cycle. * We want to see examples where you've lead a multidisciplinary teams: mechanical, electrical software, perception etc and have driven design, verification deployment and iteration. * Being able to write (embedded) code in C or C++ is a plus. * B.Sc. in mechanical, mechatronics, or robotics engineering or similar experience is a nice to have.

About You and This Role We're scaling up the number of construction projects ("deployments") and robots and humans involved and looking for extremely versatile team members who want to own all aspects of delivering these projects. This role will be a mix of being a construction site foreman, operations manager, account executive, analyst, and product manager. One day, you'll be starting very early to get to a construction site, talk to stakeholders, and help the team deliver-and see actual, physical buildings emerge through our robots. On another day, you might be in the office analysing your deployment's P&L and coming up with a plan on how to improve margins through better processes and changes to our product. You'll have an extraordinary amount of autonomy in this role, and we believe that it is an excellent fit if you've been a startup founder before or are actively seeking a very entrepreneurial role. What You Might Be Working On * Plan the logistics of a deployment: decide how many and which robots and humans to send, coordinate with other subcontractors, and make both a day-to-day operational plan while also thinking about the bigger picture and how your decisions impact our unit economics. * Spend time on the construction site, overseeing, managing, and motivating the team; liaising with the general contractors and other stakeholders; and generally representing the company and selling our story. You're comfortable speaking with the guys building scaffolds, the CEOs of the biggest general contractors, and our engineers, all on the same day. * Work with our existing customer base and drive growth of new construction projects and, in the future, adjacent product lines beyond bricklaying. * Own the P&L of your deployment and propose ways to continuously improve our unit economics. * Support hiring and interviewing additional robot and deployment operators. What We're Looking For * Minimum of 3 years of experience in management as a startup founder, GM, in operations, strategy, business development or a similar area. * Given the local nature of the construction industry, this role requires you to be a fluent Dutch speaker. * You generally need to be an excellent communicator and be comfortable speaking with a broad range of personas. * You don't mind getting your hands (literally) dirty to get the job done. * A strong bias-to-action and getting-shit-done mentality with the required tenacity and speed. The emphasis of this role is execution, not analysis. * You're comfortable in a high-stress environment. Things constantly go wrong at construction sites, the stakes are high, and we're introducing new technology with novel failure modes. * Raw intellectual horsepower and eagerness to learn. We expect this role to have a steep learning curve whatever your background, and this role might in practice feel like a completely new job every 3-6 months. You'll learn a lot about construction, robotics, and being part of a high-growth, hard-tech company. * Experience and ability to manage, lead, and motivate a (small) team. * Strong operational and analytical skills. You can build a spreadsheet with a clear operational plan, or present a P&L and model various scenarios and drivers. You're a strong project manager. Why Monumental?

About you and this role The typical startup advice to become an effective engineer is "go spend time with your users". Our version of this is "go spend time with our robots in their natural habitat, the construction site". It turns out to be very hard to sit in an office behind a desk and improve the behaviour and performance of a robot, tuning kinematics, or scoping new features that interact with the messy real world of a construction site. We've found that the most effective way of doing this is being with the robot and being in a position where you can fix it yourself instead of asking another engineer to do it for you. This is a unique and new role on the intersection of engineering, product and operations. We consider it a key role that will have an outsized impact on our business. It's definitely not going to be for everyone: you'll be wearing hard hats and hard-toe boots most of your days. You're going to be running our robots, sometimes in our test environments in the office, and many times outside on construction sites. We don't expect you to have prior experience with robotics. Our ideal candidate has excellent problem-solving and debugging skills, combines technical skills with creativity, and can deal with high-stress environments when things fail. You're a strong engineer but above all obsessed with driving good outcomes. If you're done with doing yet another SaaS job, this is a unique opportunity to bring yourself back into the real world: you'll learn how buildings get built, how robots work, and be at the cutting edge of applied robotics. If this sounds interesting, you should read about Alfred's experience joining us as an intern and becoming our first forward deployed robot engineer. Help us bring our robots to life and join our mission to bring automation to the construction industry to create affordable, beautiful, high-quality housing for everyone. If you're new to robotics, you might enjoy reading Bouke's blog post on his experience joining Monumental as a software engineer, Josefine's interview with a seat at the table. You can read about how we control robots with TypeScript in this post by our CTO, Sebastiaan. What you'll be working on * As a starting point, you'll be comfortable building walls with our robots, similar to our Construction Robot Operators * Invariably, we'll encounter many problems on each new construction sites: the topology of the site, specific things that need to be built, or edge cases that we haven't dealt with before. It's your primary responsibility to identify those issues and to own solving that start-to-finish: coming up with a solution, writing the code to fix it, and deploying and testing it on the robot again. We do this in fast iteration cycles of hours and days, not weeks * In addition, you will likely take on building and testing new bleeding edge features-they might speed up our robots, allow us to drive into tighter spaces, or building something robots have never built before * Debugging failures that happen on-site: part of this is typical software debugging, but you'll also learn how to identify issues through the entire stack including electronics and mechanical issues * Taking broader notes on things you're seeing on the construction site and with our robots that you can't take on immediately or yourself. 10-20% of this job is a bit like being a product manager, identifying new projects and opportunities that can be discussed with the wider team * Being the face and ambassador of the company on a construction site. Our robots don't talk so people will typically chat to you if they see you next to a robot. What we're looking for * Ability to code: we don't care if you're self-taught, went through a coding academy, or have a M.Sc. or PhD in Computer Science. You need to be able to solve complex engineering problems with code. * We don't expect any prior experience with robotics, but being comfortable with basic mathematics (e.g., linear algebra) and reasoning geometrically is a strong plus * You're always able to keep the outcome in mind, without the tendency to over-engineer solutions * You are excellent at debugging and decomposing problems. Our stack is very deep, given that things can fail both in hardware and software, and you can logically reason through various failure modes * You love getting your hands dirty and don't want to sit behind a computer all-day. You will frequently wake up early to drive to a construction site on-time and enjoy being in that context. You don't need to have any experience on a construction site though * You're fluent in English (spoken and written). Being verbally fluent in Dutch is a plus on a construction site but not a requirement. Why Monumental?

Monumental is automating on-site construction with cutting-edge robotics and software. Our mission is to redefine construction through software and robots. We aim for a future where beautiful, bespoke buildings are built within a single day with minimal labor. Our company is on a real rocket ship trajectory, with extremely strong customer demand forcing us to scale the team as fast as we can today. We've proven that our technology and operational model works in the Netherlands, and are ready to scale as fast as we can in the UK. We're a growing team (about 100 team members) of mostly engineers and technicians, coming from companies like Palantir, Qualcomm, Dyson, Shopify, Tesla, Meta and 1X.

You might also enjoy seeing this video by Andreas Klinger of what our office environment looks like. About the role We're looking for an entrepreneurial operator. You'll sit at the front line of our commercial engine. Monumental is unique in that we're completely vertically-integrated. We design and build our own hardware and software, we manufacture the robots in-house, and we deploy them on construction sites ourselves, with our own team, operating as a subcontractor. Your job is not just to "book meetings" or "support sales", your job is to help build repeatable commercial momentum in a project-based industry that doesn't change easily. We build cutting-edge technology, but we sell the old-fashioned way: by showing up, walking the site, and earning trust in person. If you're looking for a remote-first sales role, this isn't it. Construction rewards presence, not polished slides. You'll work closely with our Deployment leadership, Country Managers and founders to: * identify the right customers, * open doors, * qualify real opportunities and scope the technical achievability, * and move them forward toward live deployments. We call this role GTM, not because it's trendy, but because in construction, "sales" only works when go-to-market, operations, and delivery actually line up. You'll spend time on calls, site visits, and internal coordination with our forward deployed engineers. You'll learn how construction projects are actually sold, how decisions are made, and how our technology fits into real-world projects. What you'll be working on * Pipeline generation: identify, research, and approach the right general contractors, subcontractors, developers, and project stakeholders across the Netherlands and international markets. * Outbound execution: craft and send targeted outreach (LinkedIn, email, calls) that's informed, relevant, and credible, no spray-and-pray. * Opportunity qualification: lead early calls and meetings, ask the right questions, and help determine whether a project is real, viable, and worth pursuing. * CRM & deal hygiene: keep our pipeline clean, structured, and up to date. Track where deals are stuck, what's missing, and what needs follow-up. * Generate proposals: own proposal preparation, scoping documents, and follow-ups together with Country Managers and Deployment leads. * Market intelligence: build a strong understanding of how construction projects are tendered, how decisions are made, and what objections we face, and feed this back into our commercial strategy. * On-site exposure: visit deployments or customer sites to understand the reality of what we're selling, and speak with credibility. What we're looking for * 2-3 years of experience in a commercial, operational, or customer-facing role (growth, operations, construction, engineering, or similar) * Strong written and verbal communication skills, you can be clear, direct, and professional without hiding behind jargon * High energy and bias to action, you don't wait to be told what to do * Comfortable with outbound work and rejection, you understand that momentum comes from volume and quality * Structured and organised, you can keep track of many conversations, follow-ups, and next steps * Curious and fast-learning, you want to understand construction, robotics, and how deals actually get done, you'll be fast in understanding the construction language * Willing to get your hands dirty, literally and figuratively, and spend time close to operations when needed * Comfortable switching between a muddy construction site and a boardroom conversation without changing who you are * Selling into where we're heading, pulling real projects forward when the opportunity is big enough by having a deep understanding of our technical product * Fluent in Dutch and English What this role is not * A "pure sales" role with a script and a quota only * You'll spend more time figuring things out than following existing processes, that's by design * A role for people who want comfort, predictability, or long ramp-up times This role is for someone who wants to learn fast, own outcomes, and help build something real.

You might also enjoy seeing this video by Andreas Klinger of what our office environment looks like. About you and this role We're building robots to bring automation to construction, making affordable, beautiful, high-quality housing possible at scale. We're looking for a mechatronics engineer who's a maker at heart, with a bias for speed and simplicity, who can design a robot on paper and build one in real life. In this role, you'll own entire mechatronic systems from idea through to production. You'll be involved in every stage of the engineering process: scoping broad, novel capabilities, running back-of-envelope calculations, and driving hardware design through prototyping, testing, and validation. This includes actuator and sensor selection, system integration and firmware development. You'll debug hardware issues both at our office and onsite, test on live construction sites, and iterate toward robust, scalable designs. Once you've proven you can own tightly scoped projects, you'll lead broader problem spaces with a small multidisciplinary team. The challenges are real: full on-site autonomy, construction-scale payloads, reliable operation at height, and millimetre-level positioning across our stack. We want people genuinely excited to tackle these alongside a capable, supportive team. Our approach focuses on identifying key risks and attacking them through rapid prototyping, not lengthy design cycles. You'll have high autonomy and minimal drag: few meetings, no unnecessary approvals. If you like the sound of this, you should read Niall's Substack about why he moved country to make construction robots to solve Europe's housing crisis. What You'll Be Working On Imagine a fleet of autonomous robots rolling onto a construction site in the morning and by sundown, a fully built, beautiful home stands ready for a family to move in. That's the future we're building. Today, our robot systems are already constructing real homes across the Netherlands at scale. But we're just getting started. Your work won't be about incremental improvements, you'll tackle broad and novel problems that unlock autonomous construction: * Pushing toward full robot autonomy for our masonry systems: automated wall-anchor installation and mortar pointing to produce beautiful brickwork. Autonomous lift platforms and fully automated material-supply enabling our fleet to work uninterrupted across large, messy sites. As our robot's capabilities expand, you'll also think through the safety implications and design appropriate mitigations. * Designing for extreme reliability: our robots need to be tough enough to survive months of harsh construction conditions, yet serviceable and redeployable in under 24 hours. * Building next-gen hardware to expand what our robots can do: higher-precision brick placement, larger payloads, expanded build envelopes, hot-swappable end effectors, and operation in tight, constrained spaces like scaffolding. * Getting hands-on in the field: you'll join deployments where we're building real homes, whilst stress-testing systems and uncovering the edge-case problems that can only be found in the field. This will help you determine new critical features to unlock and learn what our product needs long-term. What We're Looking For * Someone who can design hardware from scratch. * You're comfortable working at the interface between mechanical, software, controls, and vision engineering. You won't be expected to develop control systems or vision algorithms, but you should be able to collaborate effectively to ship complete projects. * Experience developing proof-of-concept prototypes in the shortest amount of time. * Source all required components; * Fabricate the necessary parts in-house whether 3D printed, CNC-milled or turned. * Integrating and validating actuators and electronics: microcontrollers, sensors, motors, solenoids, encoders, and related hardware * Writing or adapting simple embedded code (Arduino, ESP32, etc.) to bring up electronics, run basic tests, and verify mechanisms While you'll have support from our in-house electronics experts to productise successful concepts, we're looking for someone who's confident building quick, scrappy prototypes more-or-less independently. You won't need to design production-ready PCBs yourself, but you should be able to understand system requirements and translate them into clear briefs for our electronics engineers to develop. * Experience going from prototype to production. * Handing over validated prototypes to our production team, providing the context they need to scale and optimise for manufacturing. * Collaborating with electronics engineers to communicate system requirements and ensure designs are robust and scalable. * Producing clean CAD in Onshape following best practices, ready for others to refine for production. * Creating first drafts of technical drawings, documentation, and other artefacts that the production team can develop into full production packages. * Bonus: experience in early-stage startups or top student team competitions. * B.Sc. in electrical, mechatronics, or robotics engineering or equivalent experience.

Monumental is automating on-site construction with robotics and software. Our mission is to make construction primarily software-defined and work towards a future where beautiful, bespoke buildings are built within a single day with minimal labour. We're a growing team (about 100 team members)of mostly engineers and technicians, coming from companies like Palantir, Qualcomm, Dyson, Shopify, Tesla, Meta and 1X. It's still the early days of building the company, and this is a unique opportunity to be an early employee in a high-growth, high-ambition startup environment. From Day 1, you'll be able to work with an experienced founding team backed by top-tier investors. Monumental is based near Artis zoo in the Plantage, in the city center of Amsterdam. We have a beautiful office with an in-house workshop and robot testing facility. We're explicitly not a hybrid or remote-first company: we enjoy collaborating 5 days a week at the office. You can read more on why we believe you should spend your time working on construction, and learn more about our vision and company. You might also enjoy seeing this video by Andreas Klinger of what our office environment looks like. About you and this role We're looking for a software engineer who wants to build software that can touch the physical world, not another SaaS product. You'll develop and deploy software that controls fleets of autonomous construction robots. Our software stack is very broad, covering everything from microcontroller firmware up to the UI that operators use to control the robots. We've built CAD tools for designing masonry structures, path planning and motion control, telemetry and inspection tools, and distributed data storage and sync. The technical challenges we're solving combine hardware, software, and infrastructure at scale - while maintaining high availability on construction sites. Atrium, our operating system for construction, is built with TypeScript and Rust. Much of our Rust code is compiled to WebAssembly, allowing our UI to interface directly with the same control code that we deploy to our robots. This gives us a shared stack between real-world deployments and simulated runs in the front-end. You can read about how we control robots with TypeScript in this post by our CTO, Sebastiaan. Help us bring our robots to life and join our mission to bring automation to the construction industry to create affordable, beautiful, high-quality housing for everyone. If you're new to robotics, you might enjoy reading Bouke's blog post on his experience joining Monumental as a software engineer. What you'll be responsible for * Designing the core architecture of our platform, and choosing the right abstractions to map the messy world of construction into elegant software * Working collaboratively with our team of hardware engineers, control engineers, and robot operators to improve the reliability and performance of our platform * Building tools and dashboards to manage and monitor a growing, distributed fleet of robots across multiple construction sites * Debugging complex issues that cut across the stack, from WiFi connection issues with robot systems to race conditions in concurrent Rust code What we're looking for * Industry experience building and deploying production systems in multiple languages (Rust experience is valuable but not required) * Basic familiarity with Linux systems and conventions. E.g., you're comfortable SSH'ing into other machines to figure out why something isn't working * Knowledge of common communication protocols, e.g. UDP, TCP/IP and WebSockets * A strong sense of ownership and motivation. You're able to drive problems and projects start-to-finish without someone project managing you, and can thrive in a chaotic environment. * A high percentage of our software team have been a technical founder, CTO, or founding engineer before. If that's your background, you'll likely fit in. But we also get excited by people with a demonstrated background of shipping impressive work at any type of company. Why Monumental?

You can read about how we control robots with TypeScript in this post by our CTO, Sebaastian. We believe our software stack is state-of-the-art and pushing the boundaries in multiple ways, but we have so far not spent sufficient time on making it actually usable for our robot operators on the field. You will help to own the product and user experience, working directly alongside our CTO. Because of the technical nature of our product, we believe this person should be a software engineer with a strong affinity for product, UX and design. If you enjoy building software products from start to finish on your own, from sketching a prototype, doing a bit of UX design work, and actually implementing the code, this role might be a perfect fit for you. You'll get a high level of autonomy and an opportunity to build software that will move real hardware around. Some of the types of challenges you might be working on: * Building an in-browser, 3d design environment for various construction structures (e.g. walls, windows, door frames, etc.) * Designing the optimal frontend experience for multi-robot command & control * Build ad-hoc visualizations to help us understand where we are in time, space or other relevant dimensions. * Bringing excellent software engineering skills to the table, and specifically writing clean, idiomatic and typed TypeScript/React code. * Design and build tools to allow us to manage a growing fleet of robots, distributed across multiple sites. * Learning how to interface with our robotics backend and in-browser WASM runtime, entirely written in Rust.

If you're new to robotics, you might enjoy reading Bouke's blog post on his experience joining Monumental as a software engineer. What you'll be responsible for * Taking a problem statement and converting it into a spec, mock design, or a quick and dirty prototype in code. * Prototype and build interfaces for internal use to run and debug running hardware. * Writing and owning clean, idiomatic and typed production-level TypeScript/React code. * Debugging and performing root cause analysis of memory leaks, crashes and other problems. * Working collaboratively with our team of hardware engineers, control engineers, and robot operators to come up with the best product experience for complicated problems. * Taking full ownership of a project, going from idea to prototype to finished project. What we're looking for * Proven experience in software engineering and building complex web applications in the browser in idiomatic TypeScript. Experience in React is a plus. * Experience with 3d graphics, ideally in the browser (e.g., Three.js or WebGL) or otherwise in other programming environments (e.g. Unity) * Experience with UX design. We don't expect you to be super-star visual/UX designer, and to spend time working on user stories or conducting interviews, but you are able to design frontends without a team providing you with designs and specs. * Proven experience in building prototypes or products in a zero-to-one environment, on your own or in a very small team. This can be a side-project you've worked on, an indie app, or some other project you can show us. * Software engineering skills and best practices. You use git for version control, know how to do unit tests or how to automate deployment of your code. * Comfortable picking up new language and tools. Experience with Rust is a strong bonus. * Basic familiarity with Linux systems and conventions. E.g., you're comfortable ssh'ing into other machines to figure out why something isn't working.
