Build the factory that runs itself.

A handful of engineers will run a plant that used to take thousands. If you want your work to show up as American manufacturing capacity — not a slide — build it here.

Read this first

"Won't robots take the jobs?"

The honest answer, with the data: the factories that destroyed American battery jobs are the ones that went bankrupt building the old way. Here's the math for why autonomy is how we keep — and multiply — them.

Robots don't take the jobs →
01 — Why here

Small team. Real atoms. Compounding advantage.

Rare surface area

Own a whole domain

In a tiny team you own an entire domain end to end — the opposite of a big-company org chart.

Real atoms

Software that moves a line

Code that drives a physical production line and ships cells — not ads, not dashboards for their own sake.

Compounding advantage

Every model compounds

Every model you ship makes the next factory ramp faster. The data and software advantage stacks.

Mission that matters

Critical infrastructure

Cells are the substrate under AI, the grid, and sovereignty. This is capacity America can't afford to lose.

02 — Where we're hiring

Disciplines.

The line is one system — mechanical, chemical, and software fused together. These are the areas where exceptional people move it forward.

Autonomy & Robotics

Run the line, no operators

Line automation, motion, and control — the machines and robots that keep production moving lights-out.

Machine Learning

Read the line in real time

Vision, process models, and closed-loop control — models that turn sensor data into corrected parameters.

Cell & Process Eng.

Make a great cell

Electrode, formation, and LFP chemistry — the deep materials science behind every cell we ship.

Manufacturing & Controls

Wire it all together

PLC / SCADA, MES, and data pipelines — the control layer that instruments every step of production.

Software & Data

Build the platform

The Digital DNA platform and infrastructure — the system that lets the factory learn like an organism.

03 — How we work

Autonomy over headcount.

Principle 01

Autonomy over headcount

We solve with machines and models before we solve with more people. Leverage beats scale.

Principle 02

Data over intuition

Every parameter is logged, measured, and learned from. The line tells us what it needs.

Principle 03

Bias to the line

Ship to production. Work that isn't in closed-loop control on the real line isn't done yet.

Principle 04

Steady power. No surprises.

The factory runs 8,760 hours a year. We work the same way — calm, precise, relentless.

04 — Open roles

The first roles we're opening.

A small founding team, each owning a whole domain. Every role is on-site in Endicott, New York, on the line that runs itself.

Autonomy & Controls Engineer

Line motion, robotics, and closed-loop control for the lights-out line — the systems that keep production moving without operators.

Endicott, NY · Full-time

Machine Learning Engineer — Process Vision

Vision models and process control that read the line in real time and write corrected parameters back to it.

Endicott, NY · Full-time

Cell & Electrode Process Engineer

Electrode, formation, and LFP / BMLMP chemistry — the deep materials science behind every cell we ship.

Endicott, NY · Full-time

Manufacturing Controls Engineer — PLC / SCADA

The control layer — PLC/SCADA, MES, and data pipelines that instrument every step from powder to pack.

Endicott, NY · Full-time

Founding Software Engineer — Digital DNA Platform

The platform and infrastructure that lets a factory learn like an organism. Build the system every plant runs on.

Endicott, NY · Hybrid

Humanoid Fleet Supervisor

Keep our tireless non-human colleagues calibrated, coordinated, and on-recipe. They don't take weekends off — happily, you still can.

Endicott, NY · Full-time
