We're an early stage London-based startup building robotic solutions for manufacturing applications. We have 3 open positions: 1) Tinkerer/mechanical engineer -- Help us build our robots in our lab with a mixture of design and hands-on prototyping. Experience with metal fabrication (CAD, CNC milling, turning, 3d printing, sheet metal). 2) Software/robotics engineer C++/Python -- Help us build our software with a lot of autonomy. Navigate documentation for the different components and technology options and make key decisions. Path to become a team lead. Experience in robotics is not required if you have experience in adjacent fields such as 3d graphics (game engines for example). 3) Robotics research engineer -- Be our first research hire. Experience with computer vision, NVidia Isaac or similar simulation environments. Background in reinforcement learning. Contact: gio@foundryrobotics.co.uk (add "HN" to subject)
