Integration Engineer

What we're building

Our vision is to make it easy and accessible to manufacture a product. We're starting with a desktop Pick and Place machine, used to assemble electronic components onto circuit boards.

Existing Pick and Place machines are expensive and can require high-pressure air and three phase power. Some only accept job files on a floppy disk. Traditionally, Pick and Place machines have only been used by large companies with factory space, so that's how they're designed.

But they don't need to be this way. Our machines facilitate mid-scale manufacturing, where you make your product at a moderate scale before making the risky and expensive jump to a factory contract. With our hardware, anyone can do a production run of their product in-house.

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone that is excited by our vision, has experience shipping hardware, and is ready to wear a lot of hats. We're a small team growing quickly. There will be constant opportunity to take on new responsibilities and have serious impact on the direction of the company.

You will be responsible for working on new products at Opulo. Integration Engineers at Opulo are full-stack engineers. This includes designing mechanical parts in CAD, designing circuit boards, writing firmware and software, performing lifetime and validation testing according to a PRD, and helping spin up manufacturing. You will help define Opulo's next generation of products. If you're excited at the idea of wearing many hats and enjoy taking ownership, we want you at Opulo as an Integration Engineer.
