Job description

Flink Robotics is a fast-paced startup, out of ETH Zurich's Computational Robotics Lab, building autonomous robots that can handle any item - including ones they've never seen before. We're revolutionising material handling, from stacking boxes to sorting parcels and unloading goods.

Are you a student or recent graduate eager to kickstart your career? We are looking for Mechanical, Electrical or Robotics Engineers to join our hardware team and apply their skills to hands-on robotics.

Who you are

• Eager to join a VC-backed startup and take on real responsibility from the start

• Passionate about robotics, with a keen interest in working with physical products most of the time

• Strongly motivated to get things done and get your hands dirty

• Proactive, curious and a clear communicator (fluent English)

What you bring

• A Bachelor's or Master's degree (completed or in progress) in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering or robotics

• First hands-on experience with physical hardware

• Analytical, technical and problem-solving skills that you can apply to real-world solutions

• Bonus: CAD experience and basic GD&T; prior robot builds or personal and academic projects (maker builds, competitions); electrical or PCB design experience; familiarity with Linux

What you'll do

• Design, assemble and manufacture new features for our robots, including our gripper

• Integrate all components of the robot (mechanics, electronics, sensors) into a working system

• Test and validate the hardware and help improve it based on the results

• Support the hardware team in the further development and manufacturing of our robots

Why join

• An ambitious team building a product with huge potential

• Cutting-edge robotics problems
