Kyber Labs is hiring a Mechanical Engineer based at Newlab in the Brooklyn Navy Yard to help bring human-level dexterity to robots.

Want a hand? Wait list is here! https://airtable.com/appbuPsRZGM5IYJuz/pag3tQl0Z0zzSHyBm/form Kyber Labs is building robotic manipulation platforms that expand what automation can achieve, starting with the high mix, low volume work that has resisted traditional automation. We believe the true value of humanoid robots lies in their hands and what they can do in the world. Whether fixed at a workstation, on a rail, wheels, or legs, dexterous manipulation is a key unlock for general purpose robotics. At the core of our platform are hands designed from the ground up for embodied AI. Mechanical compliance and full backdrivability make interactions safe and adaptable, while super low cost makes large scale data collection practical. Even for seemingly simpler tasks, we intentionally apply general purpose hardware because solving them this way ensures the system is future-proof, data rich, and ready to scale into far more complex applications tomorrow. Our Focus: ● Stepwise path: Starting with targeted industrial problems in manufacturing and assembly, and steadily working up to broader general purpose capabilities. ● Manipulation-first design: Robust, low cost hands with torque control, tactile sensing, and high mechanical compliance to conform naturally to objects. ● Ecosystem building: We can’t build general-purpose robots alone, so we’re partnering with researchers and innovators to provide accessible hardware and tools to accelerate AI driven manipulation.
