Cobot
Collaborative Robotics ("Cobot") is building robots that work safely and effectively alongside people. As a
Build Specialist , you’ll be a core member of the hardware team, assembling, testing, and troubleshooting our Prod Proxie robots and related electro-mechanical assemblies.
You’ll help us scale from early, low-volume builds to more structured, repeatable builds as the product and build processes mature. You’ll work closely with mechanical, electrical, and software engineers, turning evolving designs into reliable, buildable hardware
that we manufacture in-house .
Key Responsibilities:
Assemble
electro-mechanical subassemblies and full robots
from drawings, 3D models, work instructions, or direction from engineers.
Use
torque tools, fixtures, and jigs
to achieve consistent, repeatable assembly quality.
Perform
wiring and harness routing
(crimping, pinning, labeling, strain relief) as part of the overall system build.
Run
bring‑up and functional tests
(continuity checks, power‑on, basic motion and sensor checks) and clearly document results.
Troubleshoot
mechanical, electrical, and system‑level issues together with engineers and help drive to root cause.
Provide
design‑for‑manufacturing (DFM) and process feedback
on parts, assemblies, and work instructions to improve build speed, yield, and robustness.
Contribute to and refine
build documentation : work instructions, torque specs, checklists, and test procedures.
Occasionally
support reliability or longer‑duration testing
Help maintain an organized, safe, and efficient lab (tools, inventory, ESD practices, general 5S mindset).
Minimum qualifications:
Significant hands‑on experience building
electro‑mechanical systems
in robotics, automotive/EV, aerospace, industrial automation, or similar domains (typically 5+ years or equivalent depth).
Strong
mechanical assembly
skills: fasteners, torque tools, alignment, and use of fixtures/jigs.
Experience with
wiring and harness work
(crimping, pinning, routing, strain relief) as part of larger assemblies.
Able to read and follow
technical instructions
(work instructions, drawings, or direct guidance from engineers).
Clear written and verbal communication and comfort working
onsite
in a fast‑moving, collaborative startup environment.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience as a
pilot line / NPI / launch technician
or similar role on complex electro‑mechanical products (EVs, autonomous vehicles, robots, industrial machines).
Prior involvement in
DFM / DFT
or improving build processes and documentation.
Familiarity with
reliability or lifecycle testing
of hardware.
Experience with
3D printing, basic machining, or simple fixture building .
Demonstrated ability to
systematically troubleshoot
and collaborate with engineers to resolve issues.
Experience updating or creating
build documentation
(work instructions, checklists, torque specs, test procedures).
