About Mecka AI

Mecka AI is building the data infrastructure layer for robotics and embodied AI.
We design and operate global systems for data capture, data labeling, and hardware-enabled workflows used by leading AI labs and robotics companies to train and validate humanoid and embodied AI systems.
We work closely with frontier robotics teams to bridge real-world data, simulation, learning-based systems, and deployed hardware.

The Role

We are hiring a Senior Product Engineer to take products 0 → 1 → scale.

This is a true senior, high-agency role for someone who is full-stack, design-oriented, and data-driven — with strong startup/founder-type instincts. You will work directly with internal users, define what to build, ship quickly, and own quality in production.

What You’ll Work On0 → 1 Product Building
  • Turn ambiguous problems into shipped product: concept → prototype → production.

  • Own scope, trade-offs, and delivery — not just implementation.

Full-Stack Execution
  • Build end-to-end workflows across frontend + backend.

  • Create product primitives that are durable, simple, and fast to iterate on.

Design + Product Craft
  • Sweat UX details: interaction quality, edge cases, and reliability.

  • Partner closely with design — and bring strong product taste yourself.

Data-Driven Iteration
  • Define success metrics and instrumentation.

  • Use data to drive prioritization, quality, and performance decisions.

Who You AreRequired Background
  • 7+ years of software engineering experience (or equivalent impact), with meaningful full-stack ownership.

  • Proven track record shipping products 0 → 1 and scaling them in production.

  • Strong product chops: you can reason about UX, workflows, and trade-offs.

  • High agency: you move without waiting for perfect specs.

Strong Signals

  • Early-stage startup or founder experience with end-to-end product ownership.

  • You can write clean systems and also care deeply about UX.

  • You ship, measure, and iterate relentlessly.

Why This Role
  • Build the product layer that turns complex operations and petabyte-scale data into simple, reliable workflows.

  • High ownership, fast iteration, and direct impact across the company.

If you don't check every box above but believe you can do the job, we encourage you to apply — we're looking for capability and trajectory, not a perfect checklist match.

We strive to create an inclusive work environment for all; we welcome applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to providing equal opportunities. Should you require any accommodations during the recruitment process, we will partner with you to meet your needs.

We may use AI-assisted tools to help evaluate applications against the requirements of this role. These tools support our recruiting team in identifying qualified candidates but do not replace human judgment or limit which applications may be reviewed or considered.
