About the Company/Team

Tangible is on a mission to build the most dexterous humanoid robot specifically designed for the hospitality sector. Our robots combine advanced manipulation capabilities with intelligent control algorithms to automate essential tasks in hotels, such as housekeeping, meal preparation, and delivery. We are an ambitious, fast-moving team making robots a reality and looking for exceptional talent to help shape the future of robotics.

About the Role

We are seeking a Robot Hardware & Control Engineer who will play a pivotal role in designing and developing mechanical components while also implementing control algorithms for our humanoid robots. This is a cross-disciplinary role that requires expertise in mechanical design, motion planning, and real-time control. You will work closely with our robotics, AI, and hardware teams to bring highly dexterous robots to life. What You'll Do - Design, prototype, and test mechanical components for robot arms, wrists, and other dexterous subsystems. - Develop control algorithms for real-time motion planning, impedance control, and force-based manipulation. - Integrate actuators, sensors, and embedded systems into robotic platforms. - Work on trajectory optimization, path planning, and closed-loop control for humanoid motion. - Collaborate with the software and AI teams to optimize control strategies for dynamic environments. - Conduct hardware validation, simulation, and experimental testing to refine system performance. What We’re Looking For (Soft Requirements) - MS/PhD in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field. - 2+ years of experience in robot hardware design and motion control (industry or research). - Strong understanding of kinematics, dynamics, and control theory for robotic systems. - Hands-on experience with robotic actuators, servos, and force-torque sensors. - Proficiency in C++, Python, and ROS for control development. - Familiarity with simulation tools such as MuJoCo, Gazebo, or Isaac Sim. - Experience with humanoid or bimanual robotic systems is a plus. - A strong passion for building real-world, high-impact robots. Why Join Us? - Be part of a highly ambitious robotics startup tackling real-world problems in automation. - Work on cutting-edge humanoid robotics with a focus on dexterity and control. - Collaborate with an elite team of engineers and AI researchers. - Competitive salary, benefits, and potential equity. If you’re excited about pushing the limits of robotic dexterity and automation, we’d love to hear from you!

We are a fast-moving, early-stage startup where innovation and excitement fuel our daily work. Every day brings new breakthroughs and rapid progress, making this an incredible opportunity to build something truly transformative from the ground up. There’s no rigid hierarchy—you won’t just be following orders; you’ll be shaping the vision of the company. If you believe that robotics today is being done the wrong way, so do we. Let’s change that together.
