Monumental is automating on-site construction with robotics and software. Our mission is to make construction software-defined and

autonomous - a future where beautiful, bespoke buildings go up in a single day, with minimal labour.

We're a growing team of engineers, operators and technicians from companies like Palantir, Qualcomm, Dyson, Shopify, Tesla, Meta

and Google DeepMind. It's still the early days of building the company, and this is a chance to make an outsized impact on a

problem that matters. From day one, you’ll be working with an experienced founding team, backed by a $32M Series B led by Khosla

Ventures and Plural.

Monumental is based in the city centre of Amsterdam, in a beautiful facility with an fully equipped workshop and robot testing

floor. We build the whole stack in-house - hardware and software, we're explicitly not a hybrid or remote-first company - you

can't build robots or walls from home, so we're onsite five days a week.

Read more on why we believe you should spend your time working on construction, and learn about our vision and company. You might

looks like.

About the role

We are looking for an assembly & prototyping technician to join our team. You’ll be part of our machine shop team, and working

closely with our hardware and software engineering team.

This role is a generalist technician role in a small startup environment with a lot of variety. You will be responsible for

assembling small production series and occasionally building prototypes of our construction robot hardware, including our

autonomous ground vehicles, construction cranes, supply systems, and end effectors. You will also be helping out with the

maintenance of our existing fleet of robots. After doing an assembly, you actively ask yourself how you could do it 10 times

faster if you had to do it over again.

We are unable to support relocation or sponsorship for this role. Applicants must be based in the Netherlands, eligible to work

and able to commute onsite to Amsterdam to be considered.

What you’ll do

Fabrication and assembly of production hardware and maintenance of our existing fleet - this could be anything from

end-effectors and autonomous ground vehicles that can traverse rough construction sites, to entire robotic cranes.

Maintaining our current fleet of robots: doing occasional health checks on them and ensuring that they are always in great

state and ready to be used on site.

Help us run our construction robots and build testing rigs in the office, and occasionally join us and the robots on

construction sites to help with whatever is needed.

Help us improve our designs to small series production: planning and organizing a build, feeding back DFM and DFA changes to

the engineering team, and assembling the robots.

Promoting and maintaining a safe, clean, and organized working environment.

What we’re looking for

You must feel comfortable in sequencing and building assemblies without a large amount of instructions and documentation.

You take an efficient and organized approach to assembly projects.

Hands on experience assembling parts. We don’t expect any complex machining experience, but you should feel comfortable working

with metals and metal tools, e.g. an angle grinder.

Determine with the engineering team what checks are required to ensure the assembly is correct and carry them out.

High attention to detail. You should be able to do quality spot checks and spot mistakes in your own and your peers’ work.

You understand the importance of following procedures when relevant, e.g. bolt selection and tightening torques.

Being able to read a bill of materials, organize and collect parts and off the shelf components.

Strong communication skills. You are able to sit down with an engineer, look at a design together and discuss how to approach a

new build while feeding back improvements to them after finishing a project.

Why Monumental?

Joining Monumental means being at the forefront of a movement aimed at making significant strides in the construction industry.

Here, your work has the potential to impact not just the company but the future of how we build. If you're driven by innovation,

eager to tackle complex challenges, and ready to make a tangible difference, we want to hear from you.

For open applications (where you don’t see an exact role match), please reach out to us at: iwanttojoin@monumental.co - share with

us the most interesting or challenging project you’ve worked on, why you want to join and your CV or portfolio.

Unfortunately we do not currently support internships.

If you don’t meet all the qualifications here but are excited about Monumental and feel you’d still be able to help us solve

difficult problems, do get in touch. We welcome generalists who focus on outcomes and are eager to learn on the job.

About the role We’re looking for an Electronics Engineer to join our hardware team. You’ll support our mechatronics engineers and collaborate closely with both hardware and software teams as we develop the next generation of autonomous construction robots. In this role, you’ll contribute directly to prototyping, testing, and refining the electronics that power our robotic systems. From autonomous vehicles and cranes, to tools and sensors, you’ll work across motor control, power, sensing, and communications. You’ll be involved in hands-on engineering tasks such as building test circuits, validating sensor integrations, supporting field tests, and debugging hardware issues. You’ll also help improve and maintain our growing fleet, learning from failures and iterating quickly on both designs and processes. For more context on building hardware at Monumental, read Niall’s Substack on why he quit his job and moved country to make robots to fix Europe’s housing crisis. What you’ll do * Supporting the prototyping and development of electronic systems for our autonomous construction robots and related equipment. * Working closely with senior engineers to build and test early-stage hardware, helping turn ideas and schematics into functioning systems. * Electronics testing and debugging, validating new and revised designs to uncover issues and help with remediation. * Iterating on prototypes back in the workshop: turning test results and engineering feedback into concrete design revisions across sensors, power, motor control, and communication hardware. * Joining the team on-site for field trials and deployments, instrumenting systems and capturing data on how they actually behave in real construction conditions. * Maintaining and occasionally troubleshooting our current robot fleet, ensuring systems are ready for deployment and in good working order. * Supporting the team with light electronics assembly and wiring tasks as needed during development. * PCB design and PCBA preparation: taking prototype setups into board designs for the next stage, and revising and improving existing production boards. What we’re looking for * A BSc, MBO, HBO, or similar in Electrical or Electronics Engineering (or another relevant technical field), with solid experience and some great projects in their portfolio. * A strong foundation in electronics fundamentals, with hands-on experience through coursework, labs, or personal projects. * Familiarity with prototyping and testing circuits, and basic skills in soldering, wiring, and assembling test setups. * Tools like multimeters, oscilloscopes, and lab power supplies to debug and test subsystems and components are second nature to you. * Able to read existing schematics and under how components fit into a complete system. * Eager to learn in a fast-moving, collaborative environment where engineering and field testing go hand in hand. * Experience with BLDC motor control is a strong plus. Driving, commutating, or tuning brushless motors, whether from coursework, labs, or personal projects. * Experience with RF and wireless communications is a strong plus too, particularly UWB tracking and positioning, but also BLE, ZigBee, or general RF integration. * Familiarity with Altium ECAD is a nice plus, but not a requirement.
