Open Position: mechanical ENGINEER

Have you ever wanted to work with swarms of robots?

Do you like deploying robots in real-world environments (not just in the lab)?

Are you a natural at figuring out how to put things together and make them work?

Are you fast with SolidWorks and know your way around 3D printers?

Do you want to help create autonomous systems the world has never been seen before?

About Apium

At Apium we are all about Swarm Robotics. We are actively developing enabling technologies for multi-vehicle management, and then packaging our solutions so they can be adapted to a variety of robotic platforms. We started in the ocean and are expanding to aerial swarming. We live at the beginning of the Age of Autonomy, and the needs and opportunities for inter-vehicle cooperation are increasing. Help us create the solutions for the future.
