ABOUT RELLING SYSTEMS

Relling Systems (YC S25) builds ready-to-deploy AI robot workcells for US manufacturers. We design and test in San Francisco and put systems to work on factory floors. This role is in person in Potrero Hill, San Francisco.

The work

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Build and test control sequences for robot workcells, including sensors, actuators, interlocks and recovery.
• Bring up hardware with software and mechanical engineers; diagnose failures with measurements and logs.
• Document states, interfaces and commissioning checks so a cell can be debugged on a factory floor.

Who they want

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Hands-on controls, electrical or robotics project experience. Coursework plus a strong build is welcome.
• Can explain a state machine, read a wiring diagram and test a failure safely.
• PLC, industrial networking, motor-control or Formula Electric subsystem experience is useful, not mandatory.

The process

HOW TO APPLY

Apply with your resume and a short description of something you built. Project links are optional. Tell us what you owned, what failed and how you tested the fix. Coursework, student teams and personal projects count.
