Job description

At Coram AI, we’re reimagining video security for the modern world. Our cloud-native platform uses computer vision and AI to help businesses stay safe, make smarter decisions, and move faster; from real-time alerts to seamless clip sharing and multi-site visibility.

You’ll be joining an ambitious, fast-moving team that values clarity, craftsmanship, and impact. Every person here has a voice, ships meaningful work, and helps shape how AI can make the world safer and more connected.

Responsibilities

• Support the design, development, and validation of electromechanical assemblies, learning to balance performance, manufacturability, and cost
• Contribute across the full product lifecycle, from early prototypes through EVT/DVT/PVT builds, vendor handoff, and field deployment
• Work alongside senior engineers to communicate with vendors and suppliers, helping keep parts on schedule and to spec
• Be a proactive self-starter: take initiative, act with urgency, and bring a scrappy, hands‑on approach to problem solving in a fast‑moving environment
• Take ownership of your work and help keep multiple workstreams moving forward

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree (completed or expected by [graduation date]) in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
• Hands‑on hardware experience through internships, co‑ops, university projects, or student teams such as Formula SAE or robotics
• Proficiency in CAD (Fusion 360, SolidWorks, or equivalent)
• Familiarity with DFM/DFA principles and manufacturing processes such as sheet metal and injection molding
• Understanding of thermal, vibration, and environmental design considerations from coursework or projects
• Curious, eager to learn, and resilient in a fast‑paced environment
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
• Ability to work onsite. We move quicker when we’re in the same room.

We’re on a mission to transform a $50B+ legacy industry by bringing the power of cutting‑edge multimodal LLMs and computer vision to real‑world security and operations. From firearm detection to intelligent access control, our AI‑native platform turns every camera and sensor into a smart system that enhances safety, efficiency, and awareness.
