Build the Path Forward

At Path Robotics, we’re building the future of embodied intelligence. Our AI-driven systems enable robots to adapt, learn, and perform in the real world closing the skilled labor gap and transforming industries. We go beyond traditional methods, combining perception, reasoning, and control to deliver field-ready AI that is risk-aware, reliable, and continuously improving through real-world use.

Big, hard problems are our everyday work, and our team of intelligent, humble, and driven people make the impossible possible together.

We need a Technical Marketing Engineer. Someone who's spent real time in manufacturing and can turn that knowledge into content that technical buyers actually trust.

This isn't a traditional marketing role. You'll sit on the marketing team but spend your time with engineering, applications, sales, and customer success. Your job is to make sure everything we put out speaks the language of the shop floor, not Silicon Valley.

If a welding engineer reads our white paper, they should think "these people know what they're talking about." That's the bar.

What You’ll Do

• Write white papers, case studies, application guides, product one-pagers, and blog posts grounded in actual manufacturing and welding knowledge
• Build and maintain ROI calculators, business case tools, and other quantitative sales enablement materials
• Translate AI and robotics capabilities into clear, credible messaging for manufacturing audiences. No buzzword stacking.
• Support product launches with technically accurate positioning, competitive analysis, and go-to-market materials
• Create demo scripts, talking points, and presentation content for trade shows (FABTECH, AWS, industry events)
• Work with the applications engineering team to capture customer stories, weld data, and production metrics
• Be the last check on all outbound technical marketing. If it would lose credibility with a fabrication manager, it doesn't go out.
• Contribute to website content, video scripts, and social posts that need technical depth
• Help sharpen competitive positioning against traditional automation and other robotics companies

Who You Are

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Welding Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a closely related field
• 3+ years in engineering, manufacturing, welding, or fabrication environments. You've been on shop floors and understand the realities of production.
• Strong technical writing. You can explain complex concepts clearly without dumbing them down.
• Familiarity with welding
• Comfortable working across engineering, sales, and leadership teams

Desired but not required:

• AWS CWI or CWE certification
• Experience with robotic welding or automation systems
• Background in applications engineering, technical sales, or product marketing at a manufacturing technology company
• Experience building ROI models or business case analyses
• Familiarity with heavy fabrication, shipbuilding, structural steel, or defense manufacturing
• Working understanding of AI/ML concepts (you don't need to write code, but you should be able to explain what a model does and why it matters)

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Daily free lunch to keep you fueled and connected with the team
• Flexible PTO so you can take the time you need, when you need it
• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
• 6 weeks fully paid parental leave, plus an additional 6–8 weeks for birthing parents (12–14 weeks total)
• 401(k) retirement plan through Empower
• Generous employee referral bonuses—help us grow our team!

Build the Path Forward

Path Robotics is redefining what's possible in autonomous welding. Our AI-powered robotic welding systems use advanced sensing and computer vision to adapt in real time. We're building the future of manufacturing, and we're looking for engineers who want to get their hands dirty doing it.

We're looking for a Mechanical Engineer with a passion for building hardware that works in the real world. You'll be embedded in our sensing and mobile welding platform team, designing the mechanical systems that put our robots in motion and keep them welding accurately in dynamic, unstructured environments. This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives on rapid iteration, owns their designs end to end, and cares deeply about how something gets made — not just how it looks in CAD.

What You'll Do

• Design and develop mechanical assemblies for mobile robotic welding platforms, including sensor integration, structural components and systems, motion systems, and tooling interfaces
• Own designs from concept through fabrication, assembly, and field validation — iterating based on test results and real-world feedback
• Collaborate closely within a cross-functional team including mechanical, electrical, software, and systems engineers to integrate sensing hardware (cameras, LiDAR, proximity sensors, etc.) into compact, robust mechanical packages
• Apply sound design-for-manufacturing (DFM) principles across multiple fabrication methods — machined components, sheet metal enclosures, and additive/3D-printed parts
• Create and maintain detailed CAD models, assemblies, drawings, and BOMs in SolidWorks, managed through PDM
• Participate in design reviews and contribute to engineering decisions with well-reasoned tradeoffs between performance, cost, and manufacturability
• Work directly with fabrication vendors and internal shop resources to turn drawings into parts — fast
• Support root cause analysis and design improvements driven by field findings and reliability data

What We're Looking For

• 3–6 years of mechanical engineering experience in a product development or hardware engineering environment
• Proficiency in SolidWorks for multi-body and multi-component assemblies, with hands-on use of PDM for version control and release workflows
• Solid command of engineering drawing standards and the ability to produce clear, manufacturable drawings; working familiarity with GD&T
• Demonstrated experience designing for multiple manufacturing methods — machining, sheet metal, and additive manufacturing
• Ability to read and reason about mechanical interfaces in the context of broader electromechanical systems

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Competitive salary and equity in a well-funded, high-growth robotics company
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits
• 401(k)
• Flexible PTO
• Hands-on, collaborative culture
