Machina Labs, Chatsworth, CA
We are looking for a Senior Manager of Software Engineering to lead the team that builds the software brain of our robotic factory. This role reports to the VP of Software & IT. This team owns the full journey from 3D geometry to robotic instructions, and its work is used every day by internal customers to operate our production systems.
*This job description is not designed to cover or contain a comprehensive listing of activities, duties, or responsibilities required for this role. Duties and responsibilities may change based on business needs.
As the leader of this team, you will be fully responsible for its people, delivery, and growth. You will partner closely with product managers to shape the roadmap, and collaborate across the organization with infrastructure and IT, legal and compliance, robotics and automation, and other engineering disciplines. You will also own hiring for the team: identifying gaps, recruiting exceptional engineers, and growing the team as the company scales.
This is a hybrid role based in Los Angeles: 3 days per week on-site and 2 days per week working from home.
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.
