Job Description
Company Overview
Each year, 2.5 trillion hours are spent on household chores. At Matic, we’re on a mission to recapture that lost time, and we’re doing it by revolutionizing home robotics.
Our first product, also called Matic, is a Wall-E-esque floor cleaning robot. We've built what amounts to "full self-driving in the home” with real-time 3D mapping, adaptive path-tracking, and a precise semantic understanding of the home. Our breakthroughs in spatial AI allow Matic to work reliably in real homes, using only RGB cameras and neural networks running on-device.
Privacy First
What happens in the home, stays in the home. Our robots are private by design, with all data processing performed by the robot itself, not in the cloud.
Our Approach
Before the iPhone, consumers adopted several distinct devices; cell phones, PDAs, and portable music players each served a particular need. We believe in a similar progression for home robotics, starting with single-purpose robots and building iteratively toward more complex capabilities over time.
Our Culture
Matic is a tight-knit and collaborative team, singularly focused on building products our customers will cherish. We're ultra-hardworking people committed to solving tough problems that save precious time and energy.
About the role
We're looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join us on the ground floor, with runway for huge and immediate impact.

Establish relationships with vendors, suppliers, and CMs in a startup environment
What we look for
Technical degree in mechanical engineering or equivalent
2 - 5 years of professional mechanical design engineering experience on a product (preferably B to C) that is shipping in high volume
Understanding of materials and high-volume manufacturing methods such as Injection Molding
Proficiency in using Solidworks modeling 3D CAD design software
Comfort with PDM, PLM and Engineering Change Management and Quality Management systems
