Robotics recruiting
Robotics recruiting for engineering and technical teams
We recruit the mechanical, electrical, controls, and mechatronics engineers and Robotics technicians who design, build, and support robots and automated systems.
Recruiting for teams that build robots
Robotics hiring is hard because the work crosses disciplines. A strong candidate may need to understand motors and drives, sensors, embedded controls, and the mechanical design that holds it all together. Matching on keywords alone misses what actually matters to your team.
Selwyn Group focuses on Robotics and Aerospace companies. We learn how your system works, where the role fits, and what a great hire would own in their first year. Then we search for people who have done similar work, approach them directly, and interview every candidate before you see them.
We fill permanent, direct-hire roles for Robotics and automation teams, from early prototypes to scaling production. We’re based in the Bay Area and recruit nationwide.
We also recruit for hardware engineering and Aerospace and eVTOL teams, or see how we work with employers.
Roles we fill
- Mechanical engineers: mechanisms, actuators, structures, and design for manufacturing
- Electrical engineers: power, motor drives, PCB, and wire harness design
- Controls engineers: motion control, feedback systems, and PLCs
- Mechatronics engineers: bringing mechanical, electrical, and software together
- Robotics technicians: build, test, field service, and maintenance
- Technical leads and engineering managers
How we search
A focused process, with you informed at every step.
-
01
Intake
We learn the system, the team, and what the role needs to own.
-
02
Targeted search
We look for people who have worked on robots, automation, or similar electromechanical systems, including people who are not actively looking.
-
03
Hands-on screening
We interview each candidate about the work they have actually done, not just what their resume says.
-
04
Shortlist and support
You get a short list with our notes, and we help through interviews, the offer, and the first months.
