About Machina Labs
Machina Labs was founded in 2019 to redefine how the world manufactures. Based in Los Angeles, we are pioneering the software-defined factories of the future—where advanced robotics and artificial intelligence replace rigid tooling and enable rapid, flexible production at any scale.
Our mission is simple yet transformative: unlock manufacturing and unconstrained innovation. By developing modular robotic forming systems, we empower industries such as aerospace, automotive, and defense to design, prototype, and produce with unprecedented speed, efficiency, and sustainability.
Backed by leading deep-tech investors, including NVIDIA’s NVentures, Innovation Endeavors, and Lockheed Martin Ventures, Machina Labs is building the first commercial robotic sheet metal forming machines—creating a future where manufacturing is as agile and adaptive as software.
Every day, we work side by side with some of the world’s most innovative organizations to solve their toughest challenges and accelerate the pace of progress. At Machina Labs, we’re not just building robots; we’re reshaping entire industries.
Join us as we bring the factory of the future to life!

- Collaborate closely with product and backend engineers to design APIs and frontend-backend contracts
- Contribute to code architecture, component libraries, and visual consistency across applications
- Prototype and build 3D visualization components for real-time data and simulation interfaces
- Implement testing strategies to validate UI performance and user experience
- Support CI/CD workflows and frontend deployment processes
- Participate in technical decision-making, team culture, and iterative product improvement
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years of experience building frontend systems, ideally in a fast-paced startup environment
- Strong experience with React (or similar frameworks), TypeScript, and some exposure to Python
- Deep understanding of UI/UX principles and frontend system design
- Experience with Figma, wireframing, and rapid interface prototyping
- Ability to clearly explain your design process and how you validate UI/UX decisions
- Experience collaborating with backend teams and integrating RESTful APIs
- Familiarity with gRPC
- Comfort with frontend observability, performance tuning, and accessibility
- Experience with containerized development environments (e.g., Docker)
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
Nice to Have
- Experience integrating or building 3D visualization components in web applications (e.g., using Three.js, WebGL, or similar)
- Familiarity with cloud-based deployment workflows (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
- Familiarity with OpenAPI and/or GraphQL
- Familiarity with machine learning and large datasets processing/visualization
- Experience building tools for hardware, robotics, or data visualization

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
