Mechanical Engineer

About the company

Orbit is building the foundational AI Infrastructure for emotions. A read interface to human emotions will be the most consequential data layer, enabling empathetic AI and precision mental healthcare. It will fundamentally transform how we interact with each other and technology.

Backed by founders and operators of top AI labs, consumer hardware, pharma, and enterprise companies, and venture-backed.

About the team we are building

We’re building a generational founding team which is truly full-stack - from neural sensors to complex models. If you want to work on deep technological problems and help pioneer the future of NeuroAI, this is the place for you. Projects have opportunities for a high degree of autonomy and demand intense, fast-paced learning.

About you

  • Experienced in taking wearable or head-worn devices from concept through at least small-volume manufacturing.

  • Skilled in mechanism design and integration of structural, optical, and electronic subsystems.

  • Proficient in parametric 3D CAD and rapid prototyping techniques (CNC, additive, soft tooling, quick-turn molding).

  • Comfortable working with both rigid and soft/flexible materials such as silicone, TPU, textiles, and foams.

  • Strong understanding of ergonomic principles and anthropometry

  • Hands-on approach to prototyping, testing, and refining designs based on real-world performance.

Preferred Qualifications/Experience

  • BS or higher in Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

  • Proven track record designing and delivering wearable, head-worn, or compact consumer/medical products.

  • Expertise in materials and manufacturing processes including injection molding, CNC machining, and PCBA integration.

  • Experience driving the full product lifecycle — concept, prototyping, validation, and production.

  • Knowledge of DFx methodologies and data-driven design iteration.

Nice-to-have

  • Familiarity with FEA/CFD simulations for structural, thermal, or motion analysis.

  • Experience with anthropometric modeling and use of digital headforms

  • Vendor management experience for tooling, pilot builds, and small-volume manufacturing.

  • Mentorship or technical leadership in mechanical design projects.
