Experimentation Engineer, Robotics
About Origin
Origin (previously 10xConstruction) is building general-purpose autonomous robots for US construction to tackle rising costs, safety risks, and labour shortages. Our modular, multi-trade platform combines purpose-built hardware with real-time site intelligence to navigate complex environments and execute tasks with precision. Trained in high-fidelity simulation and already deployed on live sites, our robots deliver 5x faster execution, 250%+ margin expansion, and significant cost savings. Join India's most talent-dense robotics team consisting of individuals from IITs, Stanford, UCLA, etc.
About the role
Robotic drywall finishing is a hard, unsolved problem — and you'll be in the thick of solving it.
This role sits at the intersection of three things: building the physical setups we experiment on, running the experiments that tell us what actually works, and automating those experiments so we can run far more of them. You'll stand up test rigs and instrumentation, design and execute DOEs on the robotic finishing process, and then write the ROS 2 and Python tooling that turns a manual trial into a repeatable, scripted protocol.
It is deliberately interdisciplinary — mechanical assembly, embedded systems and sensors, robot software, and experimental method all in the same
