Lead Hardware Engineer
[Note: we are currently fully staffed for this role, but expect to be hiring for additional team members in the near future. So, we likely won't review/respond quickly, but we WILL look here first when we crank up the hiring machine again.]
Dapster is looking for a Lead Hardware Engineer to join our small-but-powerful team. This is an impact opportunity -- we’re very much still an early-stage startup, and you will be working on our foundational technology and products.
About Dapster: Dapster is focused on bringing AI-fueled robotic picking solutions to market. We recently landed a large pilot with a top retailer -- effectively dilution-free funding to develop our core technology.
If you want to do interesting work with a sharp, experienced and humble team, and share in the upside that comes with joining at the earliest stages, we’d love to talk to you. The quick details:
What will you do? Broad ownership of the hardware design, manufacturing and capabilities of the Dapster robots (we can go into much more detail live).
What are we looking for?
• Experience building and shipping robotics hardware components like wheels, drives, grippers and/or arms.
• Familiarity with all the phases of the development - prototyping, design, manufacturing, and shipping.
• Excellent fluency in CAD/CAM tools, allowing the engineer to “think” with the tool.
• Fluid intelligence and creativity - the ability and willingness to solve problems in unorthodox ways and think outside the box.
• The willingness to do hands-on work like using the nearby machine shop to prototype some solutions.
• Highly organized and articulate communication skills.
Other nice-to-have’s:
• Proven ability to closely manage external contractors and hold them to high standards.
• Experience working with embedded systems software engineers
• Ability to balance business needs with engineering puritanism
Dapster is a remote-friendly, hybrid workplace. We maintain a development lab in Palo Alto, CA, and occasionally travel to client sites (mainly Phoenix, AZ). Roles requiring interaction with our physical robots likely entail more in-office work than not. Other roles can be structured to your preferences.
