Job Description

Company Overview:

Dyna Robotics makes general-purpose robots powered by a proprietary embodied AI foundation model that generalizes and self-improves across varied environments with commercial-grade performance. Dyna's robots have been deployed at customers across multiple industries. Its frontier model has the top generalization and performance in the industry.

Dyna Robotics was founded by repeat founders Lindon Gao and York Yang, who sold Caper AI for $350 million, and former DeepMind research scientist Jason Ma. The company has raised over $140M, backed by top investors, including CRV and First Round.We're positioned to redefine the landscape of robotic automation. Join us to shape the next frontier of AI-driven robotics

Position Overvie

w:As a Mechanical Engineer, Product Desi gn at Dyna Robotics, you will own the mechanical design of our robotic products from concept through production. You will develop concept- to production-intent CAD for complex surfaced enclosures and structural components, working closely with industrial design, mechanical structures, electrical engineering, and our JDM manufacturing partners. This role demands deep expertise in advanced surfacing, NX (or equivalent high-end CAD), a sense for human-factor design, and a strong understanding of DFM for a variety of manufacturing options like injection molding, machining, and sheet metal. You will be a core contributor to taking our robots from prototype to field-grade product. This role is based on-site 5 days a week in Redwood City, Californi
