We are looking for mechanically inclined builders who want substantial responsibility early in their careers.You will help prototype and develop robotic hardware, create mechanical designs in CAD, assemble and modify systems, conduct testing, and solve the failures that inevitably appear when a design meets the real world.The ideal candidate may have studied mechanical engineering, but a degree is not required. We care much more about what you have built, what you understand, how quickly you learn, and how you behave when the answer is not obvious.People with experience in FIRST Robotics Competition (tell us what team), Formula SAE, BattleBots, university robotics teams, machine shops, personal engineering projects, or similar build-intensive environments are strongly encouraged to apply.What We Do Not RequireA college degreeA traditional engineering résuméA specific number of years of professional experiencePrevious employment at a prestigious companyPerfect knowledge of every tool or engineering disciplineA strong project portfolio will carry substantially more weight than formal credentials.Please send a résumé and/or a short summary of your experience along with examples of things you have personally built. Photos, videos, CAD screenshots, project documentation, or portfolio links are encouraged.We are building a team with different backgrounds and perspectives. Candidates from nontraditional paths are strongly encouraged to apply.
