Job description

You own the mechanical design of our robots. Mechanisms, frames, motion systems. You decide what we build, and you are accountable for it working in a warehouse every day. With that said, you are not starting from scratch. We have 80% of v1. We need to get v1 in the field at our first deployments and iterate from there.

Experience is valued. However creativity, intuition, proclivity for action are more important.

Compensation: $110,000 base + equity + profit sharing + bonus

This is a leadership role. We're a small team building pallet AS/RS systems. Base salary here will not match a large metro corporate offer. What we offer instead is ownership with direct influence over the product, and a bonus and profit-sharing structure that grows with the company.

Ownership stake / equity. You will be eligible for a grant of membership units in Rebellion Automation, vesting over time

Profit sharing. There will be a share of company profits once the business is cash-flow positive, tied to company performance

Performance bonus. There will be bonuses tied to company milestones

Health, dental, and vision insurance

401(k)

12 days paid vacation + holidays

Hybrid work schedule

Moving cost reimbursement

Responsibilities

Own the mechanical design of our robots. Assemblies, frames, and motion systems

Work to refine documentation and workflows, from design to fabrication to assembly to installation

Decide what we build, then prove it: FEA, hand calcs, and real-world iteration

Vet current designs and raise the bar on what ships

Create detailed fabrication and assembly drawings the shop can build from

Support prototype builds and close the loop from the floor and the field

Have fun, be curious, be confident in your abilities!

Requirements

Does first, asks second

BS in Mechanical Engineering or related field

Proficiency with 3D CAD (SolidWorks, Inventor, or similar)

Hands-on experience building or assembling mechanical systems

Our software engineering team has been based out of the Flathead Valley, Montana. We are gauging interest in building in the area. If your lifestyle aligns with smaller cities, outdoor space, and recreation, you will love it in the Flathead Valley!

Nice to Have

Familiarity with robotic systems or automated guided vehicles

Background in rack structures or warehouse systems
