What We Do

We build robotic vending machines that autonomously prepare fresh food. Our first robot prepares crêpes from raw ingredients in just 90 seconds, available anytime, anywhere.

The Role

You will own the research and development of new robotics modules while improving existing ones. This role requires:

  • Swift execution: Think through technical details while maintaining a focus on high-level requirements.
  • Rapid prototyping: Anticipate quick iterations and engage in hands-on problem-solving.
  • Collaboration: Work directly with the founder and CEO.

What You Bring

We are looking for candidates with the following qualifications:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in mechanical, electrical engineering, robotics, or a related technical/scientific field.
  • Experience in shipping a working prototype, demo, or product, demonstrating initiative beyond coursework.
  • Comfort with hands-on hardware work and coding.
  • Bonus points for experience with any of the following: Python, ROS 2, CAD design (Fusion), and 3D printing.

What We Offer

We provide hands-on mentorship from founders trained at ETH, Harvard, Yale, and BCG — granting you real responsibilities from day one. You will be a part of Basel's leading robotics startup, defining the future of automated food preparation.

  • Office located in the city center of Basel.
  • Monthly stipend: CHF 1,800.
  • Strong performers will have the opportunity to grow into a full-time role.

Before You Apply

We are not just theoretical thinkers; we execute with precision. We care deeply about every technical detail, every customer, and our positive impact on the world. Our focus is outcome-driven, not time-watching. The primary language of our company is English, while proficiency in German is a plus.
