Since its founding in 2015, 1X has been at the forefront of developing advanced humanoid robots designed for household use. Our mission is to create an abundant supply of labor via safe, intelligent humanoids.

We strive for excellence in all we do, solving some of the hardest problems in robotics with the world’s most talented individuals. Every part of our robots is designed and produced in-house—from motor coils to AI—reflecting our vertically integrated approach. At 1X, you’ll own real projects, be recognized for your achievements, and rewarded based on merit.

We believe the best work is done when collaborating and therefore require in-person presence in our office locations.

Responsibilities:

• Operate CNC machines and perform part loading, monitoring, and process checks
• Assist in setup processes and basic fixture alignment
• Conduct in-process inspections using hand tools (calipers, micrometers, height gauges)
• Record part data, identify quality issues early, and support troubleshooting
• Maintain a clean, safe, and efficient work area
• Communicate clearly with programmers and the broader manufacturing team

Must-Haves:

• 1–3 years of experience as a CNC Operator or relevant hands-on shop exposure
• Strong mechanical intuition and confidence working with aluminum and stainless parts
• Ability to read engineering drawings and understand basic GD&T
• Familiarity with G-code and in-process quality checks
• Team-oriented mindset with an eye for safety, organization, and reliability

Nice-to-Haves:

• Experience with CAMWorks, Fusion 360, or Siemens NX workflows
• Exposure to Heidenhain controls or machines
• Familiarity with probing, basic tool changes, and fixture setup
• Interest in growing toward CNC programming or process development

Why This Role

Work directly on mission-critical robot hardware

Small team with real ownership and direct impact

Learn from experienced programmers and engineers

Clear growth path toward programming or lead operator roles

Competitive pay and a mission-driven company culture
