Our team of 5 is seeking a Mechanical Engineer with experience using CAD/CAM software (ours is Fusion & ShopBot) to join at our HQ in Oakland.

You’ll be joining a cross-disciplinary tq/bipoc team that is building a protocol for dense community-owned distribution networks to emerge between Artists and Listeners. Your role will be to produce and iterate a physical prototype that interacts with our digital product.

We are in stealth, but previously launched the largest decentralized digital music event in history and are actively working with music communities in more than 100 countries.

Roles and Responsibilities

At Currents, you'll be responsible for launching the first protocol for decentralized distribution networks, starting in the music industry.

This will involve designing scalable, reliable web2+3 systems that serve our worldwide grassroots communities.

Design engraving and milling patterns for our brass prototype in Fusion 360. Tackle design challenges in ensuring each token unique. Troubleshoot feeds/speeds to ensure readable engraving and accurate milling.
Manufacture brass ‘tokens’ using a CNC, and troubleshoot production challenges to improve production time while ensuring quality and precision are maintained/improved.
Collaboration: Work alongside our user research, design, and engineering teams to iterate the token design/production to address any usability issues.
Iterate not only the product, but also your design/manufacturing processes to increase efficiency in the fast-paced environment of a startup.
Maintain our ****ShopBot ****CNC, reading up and identifying potential repairs or adjustments before things break.

What you Bring

You’re well versed in CAD software, preferably Fusion 360. You’ve done a lot of iterative/problem solving in past design work to overcome challenges specific to certain materials, machines, and intricate projects.
You have experience using ShopBot CNCs, or have transferrable machine experience and are eager and confident in your ability to learn everything about this machine quickly. You have experience working with brass.
You collaborate with a human-centered perspective and an exacting attention to detail in the products that you work on.
You obsessively like to get involved in things. You’re constantly reading and researching and sharing new findings with friends.
Whether they're creative pursuits, side hustles, or hobbies, you're constantly learning about the world through the act of creation.

A Strong Plus

Extensive experience using Fusion 360.
Experience using a ShopBot machine
Experience working in a startup or other fast-paced CAD/CAM work.

Here's a 10ft x 5ft cnc machine I built. It is a V1 Engineering design that I modded with some custom 3d printed parts in order to switch to a more powerful spindle/router.

Would suggest you post the same question to the V1 forums:
