Mechanical Design Engineer

Halo is a technology company building the future of haircare for all textures through exceptional engineering and human-centered design. We create category-defining products built for the complexities others overlook. We're building HaloBraid, the world’s first braid assist device. It helps stylists finish braids 5 times faster, flawlessly and gently. This is one of the hardest unsolved problems in robotics, applied to a $270B salon services industry, and integrating computer vision, compliant fiber manipulation, and novel mechanisms.

Billions of hours are spent braiding hair each year. HaloBraid gives that time back. We’re moving from R&D into deployment with salons, and backed by leading investors Seven Seven Six, AlleyCorp, and Bling Capital.

This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to a startup from the earliest stages.

Design, test, and iterate sub-assemblies from CAD to production-ready parts.

Collaborate with mechanical, industrial design, electrical, and manufacturing engineers, users, and cross-functional teams.

Push for elegant and effective solutions, challenge status quo, and drive design forward.

Experience with CAD and mechanical design of complex robotics or consumer electronics, and direct ownership of subsystems

Experience with all stages of the concept to production cycle (rapid prototyping, DFM, contract manufacturing)

Experience bringing novel technology to market
