Machine Production Technician

About Machina Labs:

Engineering moves at software speed. Manufacturing doesn't. Yet. 

Machina 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. 

Backed by Lockheed Martin, Toyota, and NVIDIA, we're building the manufacturing infrastructure that defense, aerospace, and advanced mobility programs will run on. 

If you want to work on hard problems that matter and see them fly, drive, and defend, this is the place. 

  Job Description:   Machina Labs is seeking a Machine Production Technician to support the serial production of Roboform, our robotic sheet-metal forming systems.   This 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.

Key Assembly-Focused Responsibilities:

• Setup, operate, maintain, and support Machina Labs Roboform cells.
• Perform secondary finishing operations including trimming, deburring, grinding, and coating.
• Assemble mechanical frames, sub-assemblies, and complete Roboform cells using released CAD files, assembly drawings, and work instructions.
• Perform HV/LV wiring, cable routing, and electrical enclosure assembly in compliance with IPC/WHMA-A-620 standards.
• Install and connect hydraulic and pneumatic systems, including hose fabrication (1/4"–1"), valves, pumps, manifolds, and actuators.
• Execute structural upfits and modifications (drilling, tapping, cutting, deburring, touch-up finishing).
• Safely rig, lift, and position heavy components (up to 15 tons) using forklifts, cranes, and approved lifting plans.
• Execute functional testing, system integration (including Fanuc/Kuka robot setup), and verification steps to ensure cells meet production specifications.
• Record assembly progress, material usage, and deviations in ERP systems to ensure traceability.
• Contribute improvement feedback and support cross-training as production scales.
• Follow standardized processes, contribute feedback on tooling/workflow improvements, and help train team members as production scales.
