About the role

We are looking for a Mechanical Manufacturing Technician to join the R&D team and build, with your own hands, the parts that shape the next generation of THEKER robots. This role is the bridge between design and real hardware: when an engineer needs to validate a concept, you turn it into a tangible part.

You will work in the R&D workshop alongside the mechanical engineering team, manufacturing and adjusting components for the prototypes we test every week. Speed matters. The quality of the prototype and iteration times depend directly on the person in this role.

Your day-to-day will combine machining, CAM program preparation, sheet metal cutting and bending, and rework on existing parts. You will also be responsible for keeping the workshop operational and managing the inventory of mechanical components so the team never stops due to a lack of materials.

What you'll do

  • Manufacturing prototype parts through machining and other workshop processes.

  • Preparing CAM programs from the engineering team's designs.

  • Performing sheet metal cutting and bending according to development needs.

  • Making modifications and adjustments (rework) to existing parts for rapid iterations.

  • Providing direct support to the engineering team in building and assembling prototypes.

  • Keeping the workshop organized, clean, and fully operational at all times.

  • Managing the inventory of materials and mechanical components for the R&D area.

  • Proposing improvements to manufacturing processes whenever you spot opportunities.

Nice to have

  • Previous experience in a workshop, with CNC or conventional machining.

  • Knowledge of CAM and experience preparing manufacturing programs.

  • Experience with sheet metal laser cutting and bending.

  • Basic CAD knowledge and experience with reworking parts.

What you'll get

  • Being part of a fast-growing robotics and AI company with real ambition, where your career can accelerate at the same pace as ours.

  • The opportunity to build with your own hands the parts that make up the next generation of THEKER robots.

  • A focused, high-talent team where your work is visible and your decisions matter.

  • An environment where new ideas are welcome and your contributions shape both the product and the company.

  • 100% on-site work in Barcelona.

What we are looking for

  • Advanced vocational training in machining, mechanical manufacturing, or related technical specialties.

  • Genuine interest in hands-on workshop work, especially machining and part assembly.

  • Organizational skills and the ability to manage your own work without constant supervision.

  • A proactive, solution-oriented attitude toward everyday technical problems.

  • Strong teamwork and communication skills with engineers and the rest of the team.

  • Based in Barcelona or willing to relocate (100% on-site role).
