Job Description
Ultra builds industrial AI robots that are working in the real world today. Our robots automate mission-critical warehouse labor end-to-end, starting with e-commerce order packaging. We deploy fast, learn from real production data, and iterate aggressively. We already have a quickly growing number of revenue-generating robots operating in U.S. warehouses, and are now scaling towards thousands of deployments over the next few years. Our mission is simple: build the world's most useful and deployable robot.
Overview
We’re seeking a Senior Mechatronics Engineer - Application R&D to join our NYC-based team and help lead the development of our robot and the tools it uses in real customer warehouses. We are an early stage company moving very fast in a rapidly growing space, and welcome people from any background as long as you’re excited to join our mission, drive immediate impact, and create a future where automation is accessible to all.
- Design and deploy robot tooling and end effectors that expand our capabilities and solve real customer problems.
- Work closely with our team of robot pilots to optimize robot performance for these capabilities- our customers are asking us to develop new capabilities every day, and they have performance metrics we need to be able to hit.
- Lead rapid design loops to ship improvements fast — prototype, validate on the robots in the lab, learn, and refine.
- Make build-vs-buy decisions for tools and peripherals, selecting off-the-shelf components when smart and developing custom parts when it creates strategic advantage.
- Work hands-on with the broader engineering team to make your work compatible with our autonomy stack and ready to scale with our robot platform.
