Were building the future at X-Thrive Robotics designing an advanced humanoid robot. Were looking for a Technical Co-Founder with deep expertise in Mechanical Design to join our founding team. Someone who can commit long-term and take the startup journey seriously (including equity-based compensation) Responsibilities: Live and breathe robotics/mechatronics and have strong command over CAD tools (Fusion 360/SolidWorks). Understand kinematics, actuator placement, material stress, and lightweight structural design. Have worked on or are passionate about biped robots, exoskeletons, or high-mobility robotic systems. Are based in India (preferably Delhi NCR) and want to build from scratch with full creative and technical ownership. Qualifications: B.Tech / B.E./ M.Tech / M.E. in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, or related field 5+ years of hands-on experience in mechanical design for robotics, automation, or similar fields Strong portfolio of prototypes: robots, exoskeletons, drones, prosthetics, or mechanical systems You might be a great fit if: The ideal person needs more than just technical know-how: Founder Mentality: Takes ownership like it's their startupnot just a job. Also doesn't wait to be told what to doproactive, self-starting, driven by our combined vision. Grit & Resilience: Can push through failures, late nights, and pivots without losing motivation. Embraces the build-break-learn-repeat loop of innovation. Strong Communication: Can explain complex ideas clearly. Transparent and honestno ego about mistakes or feedback. Collaboration & Emotional Intelligence: Listens actively, respects other domains (AI, electronics, ops). Stays cool under pressureespecially when things dont go as planned. Curiosity & Growth Mindset: Always learningopen to new tools, new design techniques, and feedback. Seeks continuous improvement over being always right. Time & Priority Management: Knows how to balance perfectionism with the need to deliver quickly. Prioritizes tasks that push the prototype forward vs getting stuck in overdesigning. Trustworthy & Commitment: Willing to stick around for the long haulnot someone casually exploring. Understands the ups & downs of a startup and is in it together with you. About Us: X-Thrive is an India-based deep-tech startup building humanoid robotics. Currently incubated at leading for early-stage support at T-Hub and PIEDS BITS Pilani. Backed by co-founders from BITS Pilani and Oxford UK with global experience across Robotics, AI, and startup operations. If youre excited to co-create the next big robotics leap from India, lets talk. Lets build something extraordinary. ,
