Build From Scratch. For Real. Role: Mechanical Engineer – Robotics & Mobility Systems Location: Bengaluru /Kolkata Start Date: Immediate Compensation: Competitive salary + ESOPs Job Type: Full-time About Flynetics At Flynetics, we’re building robotic platforms that move with purpose — climbing walls, navigating complex surfaces, and operating in places where traditional machines fall short. Truth be told — we’re not “almost there.” We’ve spent years exploring different ideas, working with various teams, and learning what doesn’t work. And now, we’re starting again. Clean slate. Zero baggage. But armed with clarity, conviction, and sharper instincts. We believe now is the right time to get it right - with the right people. We’re assembling a fresh team to build the first truly viable version of our robot — and we’re looking for someone who’s not just skilled, but hungry to build something original from the ground up. What You’ll Do You’ll lead and shape the mechanical foundation of our robotic platform — from blank-page design to testable prototypes. Responsibilities Design mechanical assemblies using CAD (Fusion 360 / SolidWorks). Explore new forms of mobility and adhesion — grounded in physics, tested in reality. Integrate pneumatic systems for movement, adaptation, or gripping. Run FEA simulations and validate them through physical iteration. Rapid prototype using 3D printing, machining, composites, etc. Work alongside embedded, AI, and systems engineers as a core member. Translate experimental insights into practical design evolution. Document your work with clarity for repeatability and team handoff. What We’re Looking For Must-Have: B.Tech/B.E. in Mechanical/Mechatronics/Robotics or related field. Strong grasp of CAD design and real-world mechanical constraints. Experience in prototyping, iteration, and working with your hands. Understanding of actuation systems — especially pneumatic/hybrid. Simulation and structural analysis (FEA) familiarity. Self-directed, curious, and unfazed by ambiguity or failure. Bonus If You Have: Experience designing climbing or terrain-adaptive mechanisms. Built something unusual or outside curriculum — hackathons, personal projects, etc. Exposure to real-world field conditions (and their messiness). Multidisciplinary comfort — can collaborate fluidly with non-mechanical teams. Why Join Us? This isn’t just another job. It’s a rare blank canvas for someone who’s wanted to: Take full ownership of something from the first bolt to field tests. Be part of a zero-to-one journey that could change how we inspect, maintain, or move through complex environments. Work in a lean, mission-driven team where your voice and work shape the product. Earn real equity (ESOPs) — and share in the value you help create. This is not a startup riding a wave. This is a team creating the wave - and that takes a different kind of mind. The Commitment If we find a strong mutual fit, we’d like you to stay through the core development cycle, which runs until September 2026. A one-year service agreement may be requested to ensure continuity and shared commitment. P.S. This role is meant for true self-starters. If you're a highly motivated individual (M/F) who thrives in an unstructured, bootstrapped environment — someone who can ideate, execute, and drive outcomes independently , without needing constant supervision — then we’d love to hear from you. You’ll be trusted with real ownership and expected to rise to the challenge. Let’s build something extraordinary, together. Let’s Build Together If you're a builder at heart — someone who’s more excited by possibility than polish — we want to hear from you. jobs@flynetics.com Or apply via LinkedIn.
