1X에서 휴머노이드 로봇의 손(Hands) 시스템을 개발할 하드웨어 테크니션을 채용합니다. 5년 이상의 하드웨어 개발 경력과 CAD 및 정밀 가공 능력이 필수입니다. 로봇의 핵심 부품인 손의 프로토타입 제작, 디버깅, 검증을 주도하며 엔지니어링 팀과 협업하여 로봇의 성능을 고도화하는 역할을 수행합니다.
We’re building humanoid robots that work in home - doing the chores, handling the tasks, and giving people their time back. Simple, but it’s not.
To do this right, we have to solve robotics, AI, manufacturing - at the same time, at scale, in a form factor that has to be safe enough to live with your family. If you’re inspired by this, you’ll thrive here. We’ve been at this since 2014 and we’re at the point where the hard problems are behind us and the hard work is in front of us.
NEO is our flagship - a home robot designed to move, learn, and operate in the real world alongside real people. We’re not demoing it - we’re shipping it. We’re excited to meet you, if this excites you.
If you’ve spent your career working on problems that matter and want to see them actually reach the world - this is that moment. We’re scaling, we’re hiring with intention, and we need people who want to build something that will genuinely change how humans spend their time - safely creating abundance for all.
The Hands team is responsible for developing one of the most complex and important subsystems in humanoid robotics: dexterous manipulation. We design, prototype, test, and iterate rapidly to create robotic hands capable of interacting with the world safely, reliably, and with human-like precision.
Working across mechanical, electrical, firmware, controls, and software disciplines, the team moves quickly from concept to hardware, relying on rapid prototyping and hands-on experimentation to accelerate development.
Build, debug, and validate the prototypes that enable the Hands team to move faster. You will support the development of robotic hand systems by fabricating mechanical hardware, bringing up electronics, testing integrated assemblies, and helping engineers rapidly iterate on new designs.
As a Hardware Technician, you'll play a critical role in turning engineering concepts into functional prototypes, helping bridge the gap between design and real-world performance.
Accelerate development cycles by delivering high-quality prototypes, assemblies, and hardware modifications on aggressive timelines
Support successful PCB and electromechanical bring-up through effective debugging, testing, and validation activities
Improve prototype quality and reliability by identifying issues early and providing actionable feedback to engineering teams
Build and maintain documentation that enables repeatable assembly, testing, and future design iterations
Support cross-functional teams by ensuring mechanical, electrical, and firmware systems integrate smoothly into robotic hand platforms
Strong hands-on fabrication and assembly skills across mechanical and electrical systems
Excellent troubleshooting abilities with the confidence to diagnose issues across hardware and integrated systems
Ability to move quickly while maintaining high standards for quality and attention to detail
Strong collaboration skills and comfort working closely with engineers across multiple disciplines

Experience using electrical test equipment including oscilloscopes, power supplies, multimeters, and data acquisition tools
Proficiency with CAD software such as Onshape, SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or equivalent
Strong hands-on experience with 3D printing, CNC machining, laser cutting, manual machining, and general fabrication tools
Experience documenting assembly processes, test procedures, and development activities
Experience working with robotic systems, actuators, or mechatronic assemblies
Experience performing PCB bring-up, firmware flashing, component rework, and hardware validation
Experience designing and building custom test fixtures or validation rigs
Familiarity with data acquisition systems, automated testing, and scripting tools
Experience supporting rapid prototyping efforts in fast-paced product development environments
Team members at 1X who thrive here are builders. They move fast, own their work completely, and treat time like it’s the one thing you can’t get back - because it is. They say what they mean, finish what they start, and hold themselves to a standard before anyone has to ask. We push each other to be better, and we do it with honesty and respect.
