Work In Tech

The Role

Every good problem starts with a problem definition and discovery of requirements followed by specification; a lesson you took to heart years ago. You also discovered that there is no field you’re afraid to dive into; the principles are similar but the details are different and that is exciting. These discoveries have led you on a journey to connect the big picture with the little picture, to consider systems as a whole, to lead teams through the process of product discovery to product launch, to diversify your skills in a need to understand how to design better. This journey led you to robotics, controls and automation where you have learned how to design complex systems, integrating arrays of varying sensors and fusing inputs into a cogent view of the world around. LabsCubed is hoping you’ll join us as we revolutionize the science of material design. Through the application of sensing, metrology, actuation, environmental control and machine learning, we are changing material development. You will:

• Develop high-level system and subsystem design integrating optical measurement, motion control and sensors
• Develop requirements, specifications and verification plans
• Guide and drive prototype build and testing iterations
• Apply engineering principles and perform calculations, including statics, dynamics, electrical distribution
• Advocate for design to cost, design for test, and design for manufacturing approaches

Get ready to get your hands dirty, you’ll be proud of the work you do here for the decades to come.

Qualifications
