We are looking for a passionate Senior Systems Integration and Test Engineer to join our team. In this role, your primary responsibility will be designing, implementing, and executing integration and testing strategies for a complex manufacturing machine. We’re looking for someone with experience in HW/SW system integration and testing who is excited about the risks and rewards of joining an early-stage startup.
unspun is a robotics and digital apparel company, with a mission to reduce global carbon emissions by 1% through automated, localized, and intentional manufacturing.
Included in Time's Best Inventions & Fast Company's World Changing Ideas, unspun aims to rapidly transition the trillion-dollar apparel world into one that is more intentional, inclusive, and efficient by focusing on the overlap between sustainability and profitability.
We’ve developed a proprietary and patent-pending technology at the crossroads of 3D printing and automated textile manufacturing. By skipping the flat 2D fabric stage, we can additively build custom apparel products from the ground up- straight from yarn to final product. If additive manufacturing, industrial automation, and synchronized systems of hundreds of sensors & actuators gets you excited, we’d love to talk!
As the first Systems I&T engineer on unspun’s hardware team, you will play a critical role in diligently and thoroughly completing the verification and validation process of Vega™, our revolutionary new textile manufacturing process. You will work with hardware & textile engineers, technicians, and our product development team to achieve company goals via requirements definition, integration planning, and acceptance testing.

We won’t roll our eyes if your socks don’t match. We get it. But then, if you spend those extra few minutes in the morning matching your socks and shirt, we get that too. Our workspaces are sometimes spotless and sometimes chaotic, and we celebrate messy exploration. We work through complex problems but generate simple and elegant solutions. We strive to look at things differently, and never do anything solely because “that’s the way it’s always been done.”
We’re a team of designers and engineers, industry-veterans and serial entrepreneurs, artists and developers. We’re aspiring chess masters and climbers, bakers and photographers. Originally spun out of Stanford and the University of Colorado, we now call the Bay Area home, with strong ties to Hong Kong. We are looking for teammates who share our desire to work on ambitious problems and leave the world better than we found it.
