About 1X
We’re an AI and robotics company based in Palo Alto, California, on a mission to build a truly abundant society through general-purpose robots capable of performing any kind of work autonomously. We believe that to truly understand the world and grow in intelligence, humanoid robots must live and learn alongside us. That’s why we’re focused on developing safe home robots designed to integrate seamlessly into everyday life. This is a technical position that requires practical experience with the materials, processes and parts used in mechanical assemblies. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of such products with the desire and capability to take on new challenges in unfamiliar areas to help enable our mission. Role Overview
