Mechatronics E.I.T.

Promise Robotics is pioneering Physical AI for homebuilding — a rapidly growing, venture-backed company bringing together AI, robotics, and manufacturing to help the homebuilding industry meet the growing demand for housing. Our robotic systems, built and operated inside  AI-powered factories, give the industry the production capacity, consistency, and speed to build more high-quality homes than traditional methods allow. Our team spans AI researchers and roboticists to factory operators, technicians, and production teams — all building the future of homebuilding together.

You might be a good fit if you:

- Have a passion for industry-changing solutions with significant social, economic, and environmental impact

- Want to grow your career at a growth-stage startup where you’ll get real responsibility early

- Enjoy hands-on work and learning from experienced engineers, technicians, and trades

- Are committed to continuous learning at the intersection of several industries

What you'll do:

- Support the deployment and launch of new manufacturing facilities, helping build and track deployment plans, schedules, and site readiness activities from site preparation through commissioning, production ramp-up, and operational handoff.

- Assist with technical facility feasibility assessments by gathering information on building infrastructure, utilities, structural capacity, layout constraints, and regulatory requirements.

- Help define facility utility requirements and support the sizing, specification, procurement, and installation of manufacturing infrastructure, including compressed air, electrical systems, dust collection, ventilation, material handling equipment, and production machinery.

- Support facility modifications and infrastructure upgrades through day-to-day coordination with contractors, engineering consultants, utility providers, and local trades.

- Prepare technical specifications, RFP inputs, and procurement documentation, and support equipment purchasing, order tracking, shipment coordination, and receiving.

- Support the Industrial Engineer in developing production layouts, material flow, and operational workflows that improve safety, throughput, and manufacturing efficiency.

- Take a hands-on role in mechanical and electrical equipment installation, startup, commissioning, and validation, helping ensure systems meet safety, quality, and performance requirements before operational handoff.

- Work with cross-functional teams — Engineering, Automation, Robotics, Operations, Safety, IT, and Supply Chain — as well as contractors and vendors to keep deployment activities on track.

- Act as a point of contact for equipment suppliers, machine builders, contractors, and service providers on assigned tasks.

- Create and maintain technical documentation, including machine manuals, work instructions, commissioning records, training materials, and equipment acceptance records.

- Track launch performance using key operational metrics, help identify technical and operational gaps, and support corrective actions during ramp-up.

- Support CMMS rollout and adoption, including setting up equipment records and preventive maintenance schedules.

- Help capture lessons learned and contribute to standardized deployment playbooks, commissioning procedures, and best practices for future factory deployments.

- Travel domestically and internationally as required to support factory deployments, commissioning activities, vendor engagements, and equipment acceptance.

- Perform other duties as assigned.

What you'll need to succeed:

- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, or Mechatronics), completed or completing before the start date.

- 0–2 years of experience; co-op, internship, capstone, and student design team experience all count.

- Hands-on experience with mechanical assembly and/or wiring of machine components, whether from school, work terms, or personal projects.

- Ability to read mechanical drawings and electrical schematics.

- Strong attention to detail in documentation, and a willingness to learn specification writing and process control.

- Hands-on attitude, good organizational skills, and a clear communication style.

- Ability to juggle multiple tasks and priorities, and to ask for help when needed.

- Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where scope evolves.

- The ability to regularly lift and/or move up to 30 pounds and occasionally lift and/or move up to 50 pounds.

- The ability to travel internationally up to 30% of the time.

- A relentless pursuit of learning and growing in the rapidly changing world of industrial automation.

Nice to Have:

- Co-op or internship experience in a manufacturing plant, construction site, or equipment installation setting.

- Exposure to working with trades, contractors, or equipment vendors.

- Familiarity with CMMS systems — experience with Limble is a plus.

- Exposure to PLCs, industrial controls, pneumatics, or robotics.

- Experience with 3D CAD (e.g., SolidWorks) and/or AutoCAD.

- Eligible for Engineer-in-Training (EIT) registration with APEGA.
