- Job description
- ### **About CircuitHub**
CircuitHub is reshaping electronics manufacturing with **The Grid** —a factory-scale robotics platform designed to make small-batch, high-mix electronics assembly radically more efficient. Think semiconductor-fab levels of precision applied to the chaotic world of prototyping and low-volume production. The result? A **10x throughput improvement** in one of the world’s most foundational industries.
We’ve raised **$20M** from top-tier investors including **Y Combinator** and **Google Ventures** —and we’re already **profitable**. Our customers include industry leaders like **Tesla, Meta,** and **Zipline**.
The Grid isn’t a prototype—it’s live, scaling fast, and already delivering real revenue. We’re now building the engineering core that will scale it further.
### **What We’re Looking For**
We’re hiring **full-stack robotics engineers** to keep The Grid operational and push its limits. This is a **hands-on, high-impact** role based **full-time on-site** in Western Massachusetts for a minimum of two years. After that, relocation to a future Grid site or a remote transition may be possible.
You’ll be embedded directly in the factory, owning both physical and software systems: tuning camera networks, fixing robot reliability issues, deploying new subsystems, and driving bold experiments to increase throughput. This is not a “write tickets, wait for ops” job. You _are_ the ops.
### **Who This Role Is For**
This role is only suitable for someone who has **built full robotic systems** —whether as a **hobbyist, student, employee,** or **founder**. You’ll be expected to integrate software, hardware, and process into functional systems and debug failures under real-world production pressure.
We don’t hire narrow specialists. We want engineers who can:
- Diagnose system-wide failures from first principles
- Prototype mechanical and software fixes on the fly
- Work autonomously and communicate clearly to a remote team
- Take full responsibility for uptime and performance in live production
### **Example Tasks**
- Configure and debug a distributed GigE vision system
- Analyze end effector behavior from video and revise its geometry
- Prototype and deploy a new test robot for in-line PCB validation
- Travel to London/Cambridge to brief R&D teams and shape roadmap priorities
### **Why This Role Matters**
You’ll be the **eyes, hands, and brain** of The Grid—directly responsible for keeping one of the most advanced electronics assembly systems in the world operating and evolving. You’ll have **board-level visibility** and help shape the future of our automation stack from the ground up.
This is a **career-defining opportunity** for a high-agency engineer early in their career. If you thrive on ownership and solving real problems with real hardware, there’s no better place to be.
### **What Will Set You Apart**
- Demonstrated ability to build full robotic systems (projects, startups, labs, competitions)
- Strong skills in **mechanical CAD** , **low-level Python or C++** , and **basic electronics**
- Experience debugging production systems under time and reliability pressure
- Willingness to **live and breathe the system** for 2+ years on-site
### **Key Tools & Technologies**
- **Python** for control and automation
- **Beckhoff TwinCAT** for industrial PLC integration
- **SolidWorks** and/or **Fusion 360** for mechanical design
- **GigE Vision** , industrial sensors, motion control systems
