Manufacturing doesn't. Yet.\nMachina Labs is changing that. We build intelligent, software-defined factories that produce complex metal structures directly from digital design. By integrating advanced metal forming, robotics, and automated production inside a flexible factory architecture, we enable customers to move from prototype to production in weeks, not years.\nBacked by Lockheed Martin, Toyota, and NVIDIA, we're building the manufacturing infrastructure that defense, aerospace, and advanced mobility programs will run on.\nIf you want to work on hard problems that matter and see them fly, drive, and defend, this is the place.\nJob Description:\nMachina Labs is seeking a Machine Production Technician to support the serial production of Roboform, our robotic sheet-metal forming systems.\nThis hands-on role focuses on executing precision assembly work in a structured production environment, following standardized processes to meet safety, quality, and delivery targets. Production Technicians work closely with production leads and engineering to maintain throughput, traceability, and continuous improvement as production scales.\nKey Assembly-Focused Responsibilities:\nSetup, operate, maintain, and support Machina Labs Roboform cells.\nPerform secondary finishing operations including trimming, deburring, grinding, and coating.\nAssemble mechanical frames, sub-assemblies, and complete Roboform cells using released CAD files, assembly drawings, and work instructions.\nPerform HV/LV wiring, cable routing, and electrical enclosure assembly in compliance with IPC/WHMA-A-620 standards.\nInstall and connect hydraulic and pneumatic systems, including hose fabrication (1/4\"-1\"), valves, pumps, manifolds, and actuators.\nExecute structural upfits and modifications (drilling, tapping, cutting, deburring, touch-up finishing).\nSafely rig, lift, and position heavy components (up to 15 tons) using forklifts, cranes, and approved lifting plans.\nExecute functional testing, system integration (including Fanuc/Kuka robot setup), and verification steps to ensure cells meet production specifications.\nRecord assembly progress, material usage, and deviations in ERP systems to ensure traceability.\nContribute improvement feedback and support cross-training as production scales.\nFollow standardized processes, contribute feedback on tooling/workflow improvements, and help train team members as production scales.\nBasic Qualifications:\nHigh school diploma or equivalent.\n1+ year of fabrication related experience (machining, welding, fitting, etc.)\n3+ years of hands-on mechanical, electrical, or hydraulic assembly experience.\nAbility to read mechanical drawings, schematics, and understand geometric tolerances.\nExperience with hydraulic/pneumatic systems, assembly, troubleshooting, and hose fabrication.\nProficiency with common hand and power tools.\nBasic computer proficiency, including ERP systems and common productivity tools.\nEffective communication skills in a team-based production environment.\nAbility to pass background screening requirements (including ITAR compliance).\nPreferred Qualifications:\nHands-on experience working with industrial robotic and automated systems; Fanuc or Kuka platforms preferred.\nWorking knowledge of CAD and PDM systems for accessing and interpreting released design files (e.g., SolidWorks).\nCertified or demonstrated proficiency in IPC/WHMA-A-620 standards for cable and harness assembly.\nProven ability to safely rig, lift, and position heavy industrial components using cranes, forklifts, or similar equipment.\nExperience performing precision machining and fit-up operations, including drilling, reaming, countersinking, and tapping close-tolerance holes.\nSafety & Physical Requirements:\nAbility to safely work assigned shifts, including extended hours and occasional weekends, in support of production schedules.\nCapability to perform repetitive tasks involving bending, twisting, and fine motor hand movements while maintaining safe work practices.\nComfort working in a manufacturing environment with exposure to shop noise, industrial equipment, and common production chemicals (e.g., coolants, solvents, cleaners, paint), using required PPE.\nAbility to stand for extended periods and safely lift, carry, and handle materials or equipment up to 50 lbs. unassisted.\nAbility to safely climb ladders, work in confined spaces, and participate in approved rigging and lifting operations for heavy components.\n*This job description is not designed to cover or contain a comprehensive listing of activities, duties, or responsibilities required for this role.
