Halo Braid
What You’ll Do
Do you have the following skills, experience and drive to succeed in this role Find out below.
Architect and own
the design of mechanical systems and sub-assemblies from 3D CAD to production-ready parts.
Prototype, test, and iterate fast : build, break, and refine to ensure durability and reliability for salon-grade use.
Engineer for scale : apply DFM/DFA principles and collaborate with suppliers to transition designs into volume manufacturing.
Bridge disciplines : work with industrial designers to marry form, function, and ergonomics; partner with embedded and controls engineers to integrate motion, sensing, and actuation.
Mentor and elevate : guide junior engineers, set mechanical standards, and strengthen our engineering culture.
Lead and own: challenge conventions, drive design reviews, and push for elegant, reliable solutions.
Who You Are
At least 6 years of experience in mechanical design and CAD (SolidWorks or OnShape preferred).
Hands-on builder with deep intuition for moving mechanisms.
Proven experience in DFM and mass manufacturing methods (injection molding, CNC, sheet metal, etc.).
Track record of taking products from concept through launch.
Comfortable with rapid prototyping (3D printing, laser cutting, CNC machining).
Collaborative communicator with the ability to clearly convey ideas across disciplines.
Excited to mentor, learn, and own outcomes in a fast-paced environment.
Bonus Points If You…
Have worked on consumer electronics, 3D printing, robotics, or beauty tools.
Bring mechatronics know-how (motors, actuators, end effectors).
Have incorporated CFD into your design optimization process.
Have startup DNA—scrappy, inventive, and energized by ambiguity.
Why HaloBraid?
Defining a new category : Be part of the team shipping the world’s first hairbraiding robot to help stylists build their business.
Mission with meaning : Reduce a six-hour process to minutes, transform stylist income, and reimagine protective hairstyles.
Backed by the best : Supported by top investors, advisors, and partners as we move from R&D to launch.
Culture that creates : Purposeful, efficient, supportive, and open to ideation and critique.
Impact without ceilings : If it’s mission-critical and unowned, it’s yours.
This role is based in Cambridge, MA. We believe the best engineering breakthroughs happen together. We offer a competitive salary, medical, dental and vision benefits and flexible PTO.
