Graduate Mechatronics Engineer

Your Career AccelerationThis is your chance to join an early-stage Australian seed-funded start-up of 10 people, comfortably backed by $3.5M in funding from renowned VC (Venture Capital) firms, such as Black Nova, Antler and Main Sequence.
We’re on a mission to solve challenges such as the:$166bn housing crisis as new home constructions plunged to its lowest in a decadeWorkforce shortage in the infrastructure construction $127bn industryWith industrial automation and on-site Quality Control.
We develop laser-augmented robotic vision systems. Our flagship product “Ultra-Vision”, is the rugged compact solution that brings laboratory-grade science to heavy industries. It leverages machine vision to enable real-time 3D reconstruction.
The Team & Key ResponsibilitiesYou’ll be part of an R&D team of ML/AI, Electronics, Mechanical, Firmware, Optical Engineers.
As a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) you’ll work on-site with customers in the goods / food manufacturing, mining and construction & infrastructure industries, across 15 operational sites, some in regional Australia.

2. Bridge the gap between the lab prototype → real-world productionDiscovery: uncover integration requirements, dependencies, security and compliance requirementsOn-site Resolution & Demos: to ensure the prototype is production-ready and fit for a successful deployment, you often have to build custom practical adaptations & tooling on client sites. Deliver compelling demos and walkthroughsBe the eyes of Zabidou: identify friction, quality issues, product gaps, and edge cases from your field observation. Report with precision and attention to detail. Collaborate with Product and Engineering to align often messy real-world production processes to Zabidou’s capabilities and customer requirements, while staying grounded in roadmap feasibility.
Key Skills & Experience:You’ve freshly graduated from an Engineering degree, preferably in Mechatronics / Robotics. You bring:Strong practical project experienceComfort spanning coding + mechanical design + hardware projects + software deliveryStrong team skills and calm execution under pressure (e.g., demonstrated excellence in sports, music/performance, high-stress kitchens, military-style orgs, etc.)High motivation, bias to action, and pride in shipping real solutions that delight customersDriver's licence and be willing to commute to our client's sites, some located in regional Australia
