Principal Mechanical Engineer

ABOUT US

Reframe Systems is a Physical AI and robotics company on a mission to make high-performance housing attainable and abundant in the communities where people want to live. Through our vertically integrated delivery model and highly automated microfactories, we deliver climate-resilient homes and buildings with greater speed and predictability than traditional construction.

Our volumetric modular buildings are produced in our Andover, MA microfactory, with a growing pipeline across North America and a new microfactory on the way. We are building a system that balances repeatability with site-responsive design, enabling homes adaptable to each site, community, and customer need. Our cross-disciplinary team brings together architecture, robotics, design engineering, software, factory operations, and field delivery to change how housing gets delivered.

We're reimagining the future of housing through a smarter and more sustainable system that empowers people to live better. Come build it with us.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

We are looking for a Principal Mechanical Engineer who thrives at the intersection of rigorous design and physical reality. You will help drive Reframe's factory vision at the system level, then translate it into execution at FAB1 (our first microfactory) by defining and standardizing the mechanical, robotics, and automation building blocks we will replicate across future factories.

This is a role for someone that loves both designing robust, detailed mechanical systems, then getting into the shop, helping build, test, and deploy production hardware. We need a hands-on technical leader who is excited to be "in the trenches"—assembling equipment, troubleshooting on the floor, and validating designs in real-time. You will set the engineering bar for our team, specifically driving standards in GD&T, detailed drawing generation, and structural analysis (FEA). You will bridge the gap between R&D concepts and robust, industrial-grade reliabili...
