Full-Stack Robotics/Automation Engineer

About CircuitHub

CircuitHub is reshaping electronics manufacturing with The Grid—a factory-scale robotics platform designed to make small-batch, high-mix electronics assembly radically more efficient. Think semiconductor-fab levels of precision applied to the chaotic world of prototyping and low-volume production. The result? A 10x throughput improvement in one of the world’s most foundational industries.

We’ve raised $45M from top-tier investors including Y Combinator and Google Ventures—and we’re already profitable. Our customers include industry leaders like Tesla, Meta, and Zipline.

The Grid isn’t a prototype—it’s live, scaling fast, and already delivering real revenue. We’re now building the engineering core that will scale it further.

What We’re Looking For

We’re hiring full-stack robotics/automation engineers to build and scale our automated factory in Cambridge UK. This is a hands-on, high impact role based full-time onsite at our central Cambridge facility. You’ll be a core part of the build out, development and support of a brand new fully automated factory. You’ll design, deploy and deliver both physical and software systems as well as continually carrying out post deployment optimisations to increase throughput.

We’re looking for individuals who have built full robotic systems, whether as a student, founder, employee or hobbyist. You’ll be expected to integrate software, hardware, and process into functional systems and debug failures under real-world production pressure.

We’re not looking for narrow specialists for this role, we are looking for engineers who can:

- Create and adapt PLC code on the fly and under pressure (Beckhoff TwinCat ideally)

- Diagnose system wide failures from first principles

- Prototype mechanical and software fixes on the fly

- Work autonomously and communicate clearly to a remote team

- Take full responsibility for production system uptime and performance

This role is perfect for an individual ...
