What startups in robotics and manufacturing build
Startups here build robots, factory software and the chips and compute that run them. Getting out of the lab is the whole challenge, so prototyping and testing take up much of the calendar. Roles cross mechanical, electrical and software work, and teams are small enough that people move between them.

The hiring market
What data and AI work involves at an early-stage startup
The data is messy and there is not much of it yet. You build the pipeline, train the model, then explain the result to a founder in plain words. Large employers give you a clean warehouse and one narrow question, while here you pick the question too.
