Engineering Technician (Bot Prototype)

Join Mytra as an Engineering Technician II in our Bot Prototype team. You will be responsible for the mechanical assembly and wire harness build-up of prototype bots, subassemblies, and test assets. This role requires adaptability, as designs and priorities will shift frequently. You will also perform routine maintenance and repair on bots, provide feedback to design engineering, and contribute to a safe and organized lab environment. Ideal candidates will have experience with electro-mechanical hardware, strong communication skills, and a passion for robotics.

• Assumer la responsabilité de l'assemblage mécanique des prototypes et de la construction des faisceaux de câbles, en travaillant à partir de dessins, de nomenclatures ou d'instructions verbales.
• Effectuer l'entretien, la réparation et la rework des robots, en dépannant les pannes électromécaniques courantes et en escaladant les problèmes si nécessaire.
• Fournir des retours d'information sur la construction aux ingénieurs de conception, en aidant à façonner les révisions futures pour faciliter l'assemblage et la fabrication.
• The strongest candidates will be energized by that environment and excited to contribute directly to the growth and development of our product
• Can operate independently on routine work using standard procedures, and know when to escalate
• Have proven experience with electro-mechanical hardware in prototype or fast-iterative environments. Comfortable with mechanical assembly, fastener/torque selection, and shop tool use
• Can read and navigate drawings and 3D models, interpret metric/imperial tolerances, and identify revision deltas between builds
• Have solid harnessing fundamentals: wire soldering, connector crimping, cable management, and reading electrical schematics
• Thrive on changing priorities: recover quickly from blocked builds, pivot to the next productive task without prompting, and keep momentum when the plan changes
• Are genuinely excited about robotics and the build/break/fix/prototype cycle — and want to grow into more responsibility over time
• Are comfortable in an industrial environment working on heavy equipment, and consistently follow PPE and shop safety practices without being asked
• Demonstrate clear communication and constructive dissent, share updates proactively, ask precise questions, and raise risks early with respect for the team
• If this role excites you, we encourage you to apply — even if you don’t check every box
• Experience with PCB soldering and board rework
• Comfort with terminal/SSH and command-line tools
• Experience operating manual mills, lathes, or other machine tools (Bridgeport experience a plus)
• Onshape familiarity (or comparable 3D CAD experience; we'll give you time to ramp.)
• Forklift and/or personnel lift certification
• Exposure to PLM/ERP systems (Arena, NetSuite), ticketing and project management tools (Linear, JIRA) and dashboarding tools (Grafana)
