Robotic Engineering M

Mecka AI is building the data infrastructure layer for robotics and embodied AI.

We work directly with robotics companies and AI teams to support real-world robot deployments and high-quality data capture , ensuring systems operate reliably in live environments and produce data suitable for training and evaluation.

Our work happens on the ground — in labs, factories, and deployment sites — where execution and technical judgment matter.

Robotics will become the largest industry in human history — larger than anything that has come before it. As intelligent machines move into the physical world, they will dramatically expand global GDP, raise the material standard of living for everyone, and ultimately help make humanity a multiplanetary civilization . None of that happens without one thing: enormous amounts of high-quality, real-world data.

Mecka AI builds that foundation. We are the data infrastructure layer for robotics and embodied AI — the substrate that teaches machines to perceive, reason, and act in reality. We hold an extremely high bar and expect the best work of your career. We move fast, ship, measure, and iterate.

We’re hiring a Forward Deployment Robotics Engineer based in New York to support robot deployments, data capture, and teleoperation workflows .

This is a hands‑on, on‑site role . You will be the person physically present during deployments — making sure robots are set up correctly, running smoothly, and capturing data according to requirements.

You’ll work closely with customers, remote engineering teams, and teleop operators to keep deployments moving and issues resolved in real time.
