About Eyebot

Eyebot is an outcome-focused technology company on a mission to make vision care accessible to everyone, equally. Headquartered in Boston’s North End and backed by top investors and the National Science Foundation, our 90-second vision test kiosk is reshaping how vision care is delivered.

If you’re passionate about solving big problems and building the future of vision care, we’d love to hear from you.

About The Role

We’re looking for a hands-on Technician to help build, test, and support Eyebot’s diagnostic vision kiosks. You’ll work closely with our hardware and software teams to assemble prototypes, validate components, troubleshoot issues, and ensure our systems are reliable and production-ready.

This is a fast-paced, physical, and collaborative role—ideal for someone who enjoys working directly with hardware, solving real-time problems, and making a tangible impact on a product that’s already out in the world.

Note: This is a full-time, in-office role based in Boston. We work together 4-5 days a week to support rapid prototyping and cross-functional collaboration.

What You’ll Do:

  • Assemble and wire kiosk components including optics, electronics, and mechanical systems

  • Run validation tests and calibration routines on new builds

  • Follow build procedures and checklists to ensure consistency and quality

  • Log test data, document failures, and suggest process improvements

  • Assist with firmware flashing, basic software setup, and system bring-up

  • Maintain lab space, inventory, tools, and prototype organization

  • Support field deployments and in-market kiosk service, repairs, and upgrades

What We’re Looking For:

Technical

  • 3+ years of experience in a technician, hardware support, or assembly role

  • Proficient with tools like screwdrivers, calipers, multimeters, and soldering irons

  • Comfortable reading assembly instructions, schematics, and wiring diagrams

  • Familiarity with safe handling of electronics and mechanical subassemblies

  • Detail-oriented, organized, and self-directed

Personality

  • You’re energized by fast-paced environments and excited to grow with a startup that’s scaling quickly

  • You take ownership of your work and care deeply about quality

    • You hold yourself (and your teammates) to a high bar

    • You follow through on commitments and take responsibility for outcomes

  • You bring a low ego, collaborative mindset and a sense of humor. You are easy to work with, open to feedback, and able to keep perspective even when things do not go according to plan

Bonus

  • Experience with optical systems, embedded computing (Raspberry Pi, Jetson), or robotics

  • Exposure to medical devices or regulated hardware

  • Experience with 3D printing, prototyping, or basic machining

  • Comfortable using spreadsheets, issue trackers, and documentation tools like Notion

What We Offer:

  • Flexible work schedule with unlimited PTO

  • A culture where every idea is welcome, no matter how out there it sounds — that’s how Eyebot got started

  • Full health, dental, and vision insurance

  • Commuter support and wellness benefits

  • A collaborative office environment in Boston’s North End, with regular team lunches and a great waterfront location

  • The chance to build products that improve lives and redefine how vision care is delivered
