Job Details

We're building AI agents to automate manufacturing engineering workflows: Bill of Process generation, DFM/DFA analysis, manufacturability reviews, process planning. Right now, our AI makes mistakes constantly. You're the feedback loop that fixes that.

Your job: Review what our AIgenerates on real manufacturing problems, identify exactly what's wrong or unrealistic, and translate that into structured data that makes our models smarter.

What You'll Do

• Review AI-generated Bills of Process, DFM/DFA recommendations, tooling suggestions, and manufacturability analyses
• Physically build, mock up, or test manufacturing processes the AI proposes—understand what fails in the real world
• Translate repeated failure modes into structured feedback for the AI team
• Work hands-on in our software, evaluating real manufacturing workflows
• Partner with AI engineers to turn manufacturing intuition into training data and product improvements
• Serve as the internal manufacturing authority for the AI team

Who You Are

Experience:

• 3–6+ years in manufacturing engineering or NPI
• Personally taken an electromechanical product (robotics, drones, aerospace, EVs, industrial equipment) from prototype to production
• Worked across multiple products/companies, not just one
• Owned manufacturing decisions end-to-end in a startup or small-team environment

Skills:

• Read CAD/BOM packages and define Bills of Process from scratch
• Hands-on DFM/DFA experience—walked floors, driven design changes
• Comfortable with AI/LLM tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor)
• BS in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Industrial Engineering (or equivalent)

Traits:

• Can articulate why a manufacturing process works or fails to non-manufacturing audiences
• Excited by the idea of turning manufacturing intuition into AI systems
• Formula SAE, Baja SAE, rocketry, robotics, or similar hands-on project experience is a bonus
• U.S. citizen (required for contractor access)
