About Mecka AIMecka AI is building the data infrastructure layer for robotics and embodied AI.We design and operate global systems for data capture, data labeling, and hardware-enabled workflows used by leading AI labs and robotics companies to train and validate humanoid and embodied AI systems.We work closely with frontier robotics teams to bridge real-world data, simulation, learning-based systems, and deployed hardware. About the RoleYou will build the operating capability that lets Mecka's capture fleet collect useful data day after day. As devices reach more people and locations, your work will turn individual deployments into a reliable network for gathering the experience robots need to learn.

Bring practical Linux, scripting, and hardware troubleshooting skills, and the judgment to follow a problem from an operator's report to a verified fix across the fleet. Troubleshoot cameras, connected peripherals, Linux software, storage, networking, and data transfers using logs, measurements, and physical testing. Prepare and validate devices for deployment, including configuration, software updates, recording checks, and inspection after return.

Support operators and partners with explicit technical guidance. Reproduce product defects and work with engineering teams to resolve them. Track recurring failures, verify corrective actions, and improve readiness checks using evidence from the fleet. 3-4 years of hands-on experience troubleshooting physical devices that combine hardware and software, such as embedded systems, cameras, robotics, or connected equipment.

Practical





Linux skills, including command-line tools, logs, processes, services, filesystems, and network diagnostics. Python or shell scripting skills for diagnostics, device checks, and operational automation. Ability to isolate faults through repeatable tests and distinguish hardware, software, configuration, and operator issues.

Experience validating device behavior after a repair, configuration change, or software update. Clear communication with technical and nontechnical users, including useful reproduction steps, diagnostic evidence, and instructions.

Experience supporting distributed device fleets, remote diagnostics, provisioning, or software updates.

Experience diagnosing recording problems such as dropped frames, corrupted files, synchronization errors, or incomplete transfers.

Experience with electronics troubleshooting, component replacement, or repair qualification. You own mistakes, share credit, and help the people around you succeed.
