Loombotic

About Loombotic Loombotic is bringing wire-harness manufacturing back to America, and automating a job still done almost entirely by hand. Harnesses are the nervous system of every robot, vehicle, and machine, and they stay slow and expensive for one reason: nobody automated them, so the work shipped overseas. We build our own instant-quoting software and our own machines to make harnesses here, and ship a custom one in about a week instead of 6 to 12. Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months. This is an early role. You won't just check boxes — you'll help define how Loombotic inspects, tests, documents, and improves what it ships. Expect to wear several hats and build systems as the factory scales. The role You'll own quality at the handoff between automated production, manual finishing, electrical test, rework, and shipment — inspecting harnesses and cable assemblies, running and supporting electrical tests, documenting defects, and helping production and engineering kill recurring issues before they reach customers. You don't need startup experience. You do need to care deeply about accuracy, documentation, and repeatability. What you'll do Perform in-process, final, and shipment-readiness inspection on harnesses and cable assemblies, including those coming off our automated line Verify crimps, connector assembly, pin placement, routing, labeling, strain relief, wire length, heat shrink, and seals against spec Run and support continuity and other electrical verification Work from drawings, BOMs, schematics, pinout tables, and work instructions to confirm assemblies meet customer requirements Document inspection/test results, defects, rework, and nonconformances accurately, and maintain traceability Identify recurring defects and process/documentation gaps; participate in root-cause and corrective action Verify reworked harnesses before release; control and label nonconforming material Support incoming inspection of connectors, terminals, wire, and other materials as needed Help build and improve inspection checklists, acceptance criteria, test procedures, and rework flows Support first-article builds, pilot runs, and customer-critical releases You are Detail-oriented, precise under pressure, organized, and consistent Serious about documentation — if it isn't recorded correctly, it didn't happen Comfortable hands-on with small parts, crimps, connectors, and finished assemblies on a production floor Willing to stop and raise an issue when something looks wrong A clear communicator who flags problems without creating drama Low-ego and happy to do the unglamorous work that needs doing Always looking for ways to make the process better Minimum qualifications High school diploma or equivalent 1+ year in quality inspection, electrical/wire-harness/cable assembly, electronics, or a similar hands-on production role Able to read or learn drawings, BOMs, pinout tables, schematics, and work instructions, and follow detailed inspection/test procedures Strong attention to detail and accurate documentation habits Able to stand for extended periods and lift up to 25 lbs unassisted Comfortable working full-time on-site in Austin, TX Legally authorized to work in the U.S. (we're unable to sponsor visas for this role) Nice to have Wire harness, cable, or electrical assembly inspection experience Crimp/connector inspection, continuity, hipot, pull testing, or harness test fixtures Familiarity with connector families such as Molex (Mini-Fit Jr, Micro-Fit), TE, Deutsch (DT/DTM/DTP), Amphenol, JST, Hirose, D-Sub, circular, and sealed automotive IPC/WHMA-A-620 familiarity or certification First-article, in-process, final, or rework-verification experience NCR/CAPA, root-cause analysis, or corrective action experience Background in aerospace, defense, automotive/EV, robotics, industrial aut

Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months. The role You'll be one of the most important hands-on people in the factory - building complex harnesses, supporting first-article builds, finishing and inspecting output from our automated line, training other technicians, troubleshooting build issues, and helping define the standards that make the factory fast, repeatable, and reliable. This is a hands-on senior role, not a desk job: you're the person others come to when something is unclear, incorrect, or not working. You'll work closely with engineering, production, and quality to turn drawings, BOMs, pinouts, and work instructions into shipped harnesses. Senior technicians here don't just build - they help build the production system. What you'll do Build intermediate-to-complex harnesses and cable assemblies, and complete manual assembly on partially built harnesses coming off our automated line Inspect automated-line output for crimp quality, routing, labeling, connector assembly, pin placement, and strain relief Perform cutting, stripping, crimping, terminating, routing, labeling, soldering, strain relief, connector assembly, and final assembly Run continuity and other electrical verification on completed harnesses Read and interpret drawings, BOMs, pinout tables, schematics, work instructions, and customer documentation Support first-article builds, pilot runs, rework, and customer-critical jobs Troubleshoot build, pinout, fitment, tooling, and recurring quality issues Train and mentor junior technicians, and set the standard for crimp quality, labeling, routing, connector assembly, cleanliness, and documentation Help define and improve work instructions, inspection standards, fixtures, tooling, and production flow Identify defects and process gaps, and communicate them clearly to engineering, quality, and production leadership Record job progress, test results, and rework notes accurately in our software systems You are A highly skilled, hands-on harness builder - precise, organized, and calm under pressure Serious about quality: every crimp, every label, every pin, every shipment Comfortable being the technical resource other technicians go to, and willing to train and raise the team's standard A clear communicator who raises issues early Low-ego and happy to do the unglamorous work that needs doing Always looking for ways to make the process better Minimum qualifications High school diploma or equivalent 3+ years in wire harness, cable, or electrical assembly; aerospace, automotive, or control-panel wiring; or a closely related hands-on technical field Strong experience reading drawings, BOMs, pinout tables, schematics, and work instructions Strong experience with crimping, terminating, routing, labeling, inspection, and electrical testing Able to troubleshoot build issues and communicate problems clearly Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality Able to stand for extended periods and lift up to 25 lbs unassisted Comfortable working full-time on-site in Austin, TX Legally authorized to work in the U.S. (we're unable to sponsor visas for this role) Nice to have 5+ years in wire harness or cable assembly IPC/WHMA-A-620 familiarity or certification Experience training junior technicians or in floor leadership First-article builds or new product introduction Crimp validation, pull testing, continuity, hipot tes

About Loombotic Loombotic is automating the wire harness, the hand-built nervous system inside every robot, vehicle, and machine. It is one of the last big manufacturing processes still done almost entirely by hand, and we are changing that by building our own instant-quoting software and our own machines, shipping a custom harness in about a week instead of 6 to 12. Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months. Software is the core of why we're faster than traditional manufacturing - it runs everything from the instant quote a customer sees to the work instructions on the floor to the machines that build the harness. The role You'll be one of our first software hires, building the systems that make an automated harness factory run: the instant-quoting engine, the production/MES software technicians and machines work from, customer-facing tooling, and the data backbone tying it all together. This is a high-ownership generalist role - you'll ship features end-to-end, talk to the people on the floor and the customers using what you build, and have an outsized say in the architecture as we scale. Problems you'll get to solve A few of the problems you'd actually work on: Build a quoting engine that turns a customer's harness drawing or netlist into an accurate price and a buildable spec in seconds, instead of the days it takes the rest of the industry Model a harness (wires, connectors, terminals, splices, branches) as data clean enough to drive quoting, the floor, and the machines from one source of truth Build the production software that tells technicians and machines exactly what to build, tracks every job, and never lets a wrong part or revision slip through Close the loop with hardware: pull test results and machine data back in, and surface what's slow or breaking on the floor before it bites Make all of it fast and reliable enough that a custom harness goes from order to shipped in about a week What you'll do Build full-stack features across the quoting engine, production software, and internal tools Turn harness drawings, BOMs, and pinouts into structured data that drives instant quotes and build instructions Integrate software with the shop floor and our automated equipment (job tracking, test results, machine data) Design schemas and data pipelines that keep quoting, production, inventory, and procurement in sync Work directly with production, engineering, and customers to find the highest-leverage things to build Own quality, reliability, and iteration speed of what you ship You are A strong full-stack generalist who ships quickly and takes end-to-end ownership Comfortable with ambiguity and an early-stage, fast-changing codebase Motivated by real-world impact - you like that your code moves physical product out the door A clear communicator who works well with non-software teammates on the floor Low-ego, pragmatic, and always looking to make the system better Minimum qualifications A track record of building and shipping production software end-to-end. We hire on what you've built, not years on a resume: strong new grads through senior engineers are all welcome Can quickly adapt to the ever-changing agentic coding meta Comfortable across a modern web stack and relational databases. We care that you can ship and won't screen on language (much of our stack is TypeScript, Vue, Python, and Postgres, but that's not a requirement) Comfortable owning a feature from data model to UI to deployment Able to work on-site in Austin, TX (or relocate); exceptional Toronto-based candidates considered Legally authorized to work in the U.S. or Canada Nice to have Experience in manufacturing, hardware, robotics, supply chain, or other physical-world software Quoting, pricing, CPQ, MES, ERP, or PLM systems Working with engineering drawings/BOMs Supabase/Postgres at depth, cloud infra, or data pipelines Early-stage startup experience as an ea

Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months. This role builds the perception and robotics at the heart of that. The role You'll build the perception and robotics that let our automated line handle wires, connectors, and terminals - parts that are flexible, small, and hard for traditional automation. That means vision systems that find and orient connectors and wire ends, and robot motion that picks, places, routes, and terminates reliably on a real production floor. You'll own problems end-to-end, from prototype on the bench to running in production, working shoulder-to-shoulder with mechanical, controls, and the technicians who run the line. Problems you'll get to solve A few of the problems you'd actually work on: Get a robot to reliably pick, orient, and place wires and connectors: flexible, shiny parts that have to be placed and seated to sub-millimeter precision, the kind of work traditional automation chokes on Build vision that finds and localizes a specific connector, terminal, or wire end in clutter, under real factory lighting, fast enough to keep cycle time low Solve high-precision insertion and termination: seating a terminal in the right cavity every time, at the tolerances harnesses demand Drive a vision-guided task from works-in-a-demo to runs-untended on the line, by understanding both the algorithm and how the part actually behaves Make it robust enough to run unattended on a production line, not just in a demo What you'll do Build vision pipelines (classical CV and/or ML) for detecting, segmenting, and estimating the pose of connectors, terminals, and wire ends Develop and tune robot motion for pick/place, routing, insertion, and termination tasks Handle camera/robot calibration, hand-eye calibration, and the gritty real-world edge cases Close the loop with mechanical and controls engineers on end effectors, fixtures, and machine design Deploy, monitor, and harden systems running on the production floor; debug failures with real parts Measure and drive up cycle time, yield, and reliability You are Hands-on with both code and hardware - happy at a workstation and on the floor with the machine Rigorous about making things work reliably in the real world, not just in a demo A fast iterator who learns from physical failure modes A strong collaborator across mechanical, controls, and production More interested in the line running reliably than in who gets credit for the fix Minimum qualifications Experience building robotics and/or computer-vision systems that ran on real hardware Strong programming in Python and/or C++ Solid grasp of camera calibration, coordinate frames/transforms, and robotic manipulation Comfortable working on-site in Austin, TX with physical equipment Legally authorized to work in the U.S. or Canada Nice to have Industrial robot arms, motion control, or real-time systems 6-DoF pose estimation, deep learning for perception, or sensor fusion Manufacturing automation, machine building, or NPI on a production line Working with deformable/flexible objects (wires, cables, fabric) ROS or equivalent robotics frameworks Bonus: serious Factorio (or other factory-builder game) playtime. If optimizing automated factories for fun sounds like you, you'll fit right in. What we care about We care about engineers who close the loop on hard physical problems. The best person here gets a flaky vision-guided insertion from 80% to 99.9% because they understand both the algorithm and the way the part

Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months. The role You'll build, finish, inspect, test, and improve wire harnesses and cable assemblies for customer jobs. A big part of the role is working with harnesses produced by our automated line - taking partially built harnesses, completing the manual steps, inspecting and electrically testing them, flagging defects, and helping engineering improve the automated build. This is real factory work: wires, connectors, terminals, hand tools, test equipment, drawings, and schedules. You don't need startup experience - you do need to care about precision, quality, speed, and doing the work the right way. Technicians here aren't button-pushers; the production team helps define how the factory works. What you'll do Complete manual assembly on partially built harnesses coming off our automated line, and build harnesses and cable assemblies from scratch Inspect automated-line output for crimp quality, routing, labeling, connector assembly, pin placement, and strain relief Cut, strip, crimp, terminate, route, label, and assemble wires; work with connectors, terminals, housings, seals, heat shrink, and cable management Read and follow drawings, BOMs, pinout tables, schematics, and work instructions Run continuity and other electrical verification on completed harnesses Inspect crimps, terminations, connector assemblies, labels, routing, and finished harnesses Troubleshoot basic build issues and escalate blockers to engineering or production leadership Flag defects, recurring issues, or unclear process steps clearly Support first-article builds and production runs; help improve the handoff between automated production, finishing, inspection, test, and shipment Record job progress, test results, and build info accurately in our software systems You are Hands-on, detail-oriented, reliable, and precise under pressure Serious about quality: every crimp, every label, every pin, every shipment Someone who takes ownership and asks questions instead of guessing A team player who makes the shift better for everyone around them Low-ego and happy to do the unglamorous work that needs doing Always looking for ways to make the process better Minimum qualifications High school diploma or equivalent Experience with hands-on assembly, manufacturing, wiring, or related technical work Able to follow detailed work instructions Strong attention to detail Able to stand for extended periods and lift up to 25 lbs unassisted Comfortable working full-time on-site in Austin, TX Legally authorized to work in the U.S. (we're unable to sponsor visas for this role) Nice to have Wire harness, cable, or electrical assembly experience Crimping, soldering, routing, strain relief, labeling, and continuity testing Reading schematics, pinouts, drawings, BOMs, or work instructions Familiarity with connector families such as Molex (Mini-Fit Jr, Micro-Fit), TE, Deutsch, Amphenol, JST, Hirose, D-Sub, circular, and sealed automotive IPC/WHMA-A-620 familiarity or certification Control-panel, automotive, aerospace/defense, robotics, or industrial-equipment wiring; electronics or contract manufacturing First-article builds, rework, inspection, or production troubleshooting Digital production, inventory, ERP, or quality systems Skilled-trades or hands-on production background What we care about We care more about work quality than fanc

Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months. We've grown this far mostly founder-led. This is our first dedicated go-to-market hire: the person who builds the engine that takes us from founder-led sales to a repeatable machine. The role This is a founding go-to-market role, and you'll work hand in hand with the founder on everything that brings in revenue: positioning and messaging, demand generation and marketing, outbound and inbound pipeline, and closing deals. You'll be a doer first (writing the emails, running the campaigns, taking the calls, closing the business) and grow into an architect (turning what works into a repeatable playbook and, as we scale, hiring and leading the first GTM team under you). We are not exclusively looking for a long GTM résumé. We want a hungry, high-potential person who can sell, write, and learn fast, and who wants to own go-to-market at a company with real traction and grow into leading it. If that is you, this is a rare seat. Problems you'll get to solve A few of the problems you'd actually work on: Turn a founder-led sales motion into a repeatable, measurable engine: positioning, channels, pipeline, and a playbook someone else could run Find the sharpest way to reach hardware companies that don't yet know a faster harness supplier exists, across outbound, content, events, and partnerships Build the marketing that makes engineers and buyers trust us before the first call: the site, case studies, and technical content Close real deals yourself, then codify what wins so the next rep can repeat it Stand up the metrics and forecasting that show what's working and where the next dollar of growth comes from What you'll do Partner with the founder day to day on positioning, messaging, and the overall go-to-market plan Own demand generation across the channels that work: outbound, content and SEO, events, partnerships, and inbound Run and improve the full sales cycle: qualify, scope with the applications and engineering team, quote, and close Manage and coach the SDR, and hire the next GTM people as the motion proves out Build the CRM, pipeline reporting, and forecasting the company runs on Bring market and customer signal back into product, pricing, and positioning You are Hungry, resourceful, and a fast learner who figures things out and gets them done without a playbook Naturally persuasive, whether you have closed deals before or just always seem to get people to say yes A strong writer who can make a technical product legible to engineers and buyers Comfortable in the weeds (sending the email, taking the call) and starting to think bigger (segments, messaging, what is working and why) Excited to learn go-to-market directly from the founder and grow into leading it Minimum qualifications Evidence that you can persuade, sell, or move people to act, in any context: a job, a side hustle, a campaign, a team you led, or a thing you got off the ground. Formal GTM experience is a plus, not a requirement Strong writing and clear communication, and the ability to get technical quickly A self-starter who thrives with little structure and wants enormous ownership early Comfortable working hand in hand with a founder Able to work on-site in Austin, TX (or relocate) Legally authorized to work in the U.S. or Canada Nice to have Selling or marketing technical, hardware, manufacturing, or industrial products Selling t

Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months. The role This isn't a back-room warehouse job. You'll own the material flow that keeps the factory running: receiving parts, verifying shipments, maintaining inventory accuracy, preparing complete kits for harness jobs, staging materials for technicians and automated equipment, and catching shortages before they block production. Harness manufacturing is extremely materials-sensitive - one missing or mislabeled connector, terminal, seal, label, or piece of heat shrink can stop a job. Your job is to prevent that. You'll work closely with production, engineering, purchasing, and operations. The factory only moves fast if the material system is accurate. What you'll do Receive inbound materials, components, tools, and supplies; verify deliveries against POs, packing slips, BOMs, and job requirements Inspect shipments for damage, shortages, wrong parts, or labeling issues Label, organize, and stock connectors, terminals, wire, seals, housings, heat shrink, labels, and consumables; maintain accurate bin locations, counts, and records Prepare complete job kits before production starts, verifying correct parts, quantities, revisions, and approved substitutions Stage materials for technicians, automated equipment, inspection, test, and shipment Identify shortages, discrepancies, and material risks early, and communicate job-readiness blockers clearly to production, purchasing, and engineering Support cycle counts, inventory audits, and variance investigations Handle vendor returns, damaged materials, and nonconforming parts with proper documentation Maintain receiving paperwork, packing slips, certifications, and material records Use our software systems to track inventory, kits, shortages, receipts, and job progress accurately Help build and improve our inventory, receiving, and kitting systems as we scale You are Organized, detail-oriented, reliable, and precise under pressure Serious about accuracy: every part, every label, every bin, every kit Someone who takes ownership of the material flow and does the hands-on work - receiving, labeling, counting, stocking, kitting, staging A clear communicator who raises issues early and makes the shift better for everyone around them Low-ego and happy to do the unglamorous work that needs doing Always looking for ways to make the process better Minimum qualifications High school diploma or equivalent 1+ year in receiving, inventory, warehouse, manufacturing, kitting, or a similar hands-on operations role Strong attention to detail and organization, and the ability to prioritize across receiving, inventory, and production needs Able to follow detailed work instructions and use hand tools, labels, scanners, computers, and inventory systems Able to stand, walk, bend, reach, and move around a production floor for extended periods, and lift up to 50 lbs Comfortable working full-time on-site in Austin, TX Legally authorized to work in the U.S. (we're unable to sponsor visas for this role) Nice to have 2+ years in inventory control, receiving, kitting, warehouse operations, or manufacturing materials Experience preparing kits for production jobs, and with small-parts inventory (reels, terminals, connectors, hardware, electronics components) Reading BOMs, drawings, work orders, POs, packing slips, and material requirements Kanban, cycle counting, ERP, invento

About Loombotic Loombotic is the SendCutSend of wire harnesses. Harnesses are inside almost every piece of hardware - robots, aircraft, defense systems, industrial machines - but they're still built by hand, with 6-12 week lead times that stall entire products. We're changing that by building our own instant-quoting software and our own manufacturing line - the robots, vision systems, and tooling that automate work the industry still does by hand. The result: custom harnesses designed, built, and shipped in about a week. Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months. We don't buy our factory off the shelf - we design and build the machines, fixtures, and tooling that make automated harness production possible. That's what this role does. The role This is a role where you own whole machines, not just parts. You'll design the mechanical systems that build harnesses - mechanisms, end effectors, fixtures, tooling - and then integrate motion, controls, and our vision/robotics systems into a machine that actually runs on the floor. You'll take problems from a blank Onshape document through prototyping, bring-up, and debugging, working shoulder-to-shoulder with robotics, controls, and the technicians running the line. We're hiring for hunger, fundamentals, and a track record of building real things - not years on a resume. Whether you're a recent grad who's been building robots in your garage or a seasoned machine builder who wants more ownership, what matters is that you've actually built things and want to own machines end-to-end. Everyone here gets real mentorship and a steep growth curve. Problems you'll get to solve A few of the problems you'd actually work on: Design machines and end effectors that handle limp, variable wire and tiny connectors: the parts the industry still says can't be automated Build fixtures and tooling that turn fiddly manual steps (routing, strain relief, seating) into fast, repeatable operations Integrate mechanical, motion, and vision into a machine that runs reliably on the floor, not just on the bench Hit tight tolerances and cycle times while keeping machines buildable, serviceable, and cheap enough to replicate Get from a blank Onshape doc to a working, production-grade machine fast, then make the next one better What you'll do Design mechanisms, end effectors, fixtures, and tooling for the automated line in Onshape Own machines end-to-end: concept → CAD → prototype → bring-up → debugging → running in production Integrate your mechanical designs with motion, actuators, controls, and our vision/robotics systems into working machines Prototype fast with 3D printing, machining, and off-the-shelf parts; iterate on real hardware Apply DFM/DFA and sound tolerancing; spec materials, hardware, and fits Source parts and work with machine shops and vendors Be on the floor when your machine runs - measure cycle time, yield, and reliability, and make it better You are A mechanical engineer at any level who has built real things - robots, machines, mechanisms, projects (school, internships, FRC/FSAE, personal builds, or years of professional machine design all count) Hands-on and resourceful: happy in CAD and at a workbench with a wrench Hungry for ownership and able to learn fast Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid iteration Excited to work across mechanical, controls, and robotics rather than stay in one lane Happier when the machine is running on the floor than when the CAD looks clean Minimum qualifications Mechanical engineering degree or equivalent hands-on experience - open to all experience levels, from new grad to seasoned Demonstrated experience designing and building real mechanisms or machines (projects, internships, competitions, personal builds, or professional work) Proficiency in Onshape or another parametric CAD tool (you can pick up Onshape fast if you know So
