WE'RE A ROBOTICS COMPANY BUILDING INTELLIGENT TECHNOLOGY TO HELP PEOPLE FEEL GREAT.
CHANGING THE WORLD
ONE BODY
AT A TIME
aescape - pronounced "escape" and inspired by aesthetics and Aesculaepius, the Greek god of healing and spas, is a robotics company building intelligent, highly personalized wellness experiences designed to help people have better relationships with their bodies.
Founded by serial entrepreneurs and backed by a host of savvy investors, we live at the intersection of body science and computer science, and are hard at work creating the first generation of something we believe will meaningfully improve people's daily lives.
We'll share more when we're ready.
WORK WITH US
"We're a small, incredibly strong team of technologists and scientists with deep experience in robotics, computer vision, machine learning, body sciences, and building successful companies.
Join us for the opportunity to create something truly different that will challenge you every step of the way, and when completed, will help improve the lives of the people who experience it."
— Eric Litman, CEO & Founder
Senior Mechanical Engineer - Fitness/Wellness Tech
You'll work on product development of core hardware systems that will help shape the future of fitness, wellness, and self care, and that will form the basis of a suite of products with the potential for enormous impact. This is a once-in-a-career opportunity.
Day to day, you'll work to engineer components of a complex system that needs to interact with the human body in a safe and effective manner. This will involve in design and prototyping of novel soft end effectors as well as core mechanical engineering of the mechanical structure of our system. End effector design will involve multiple aspects of soft elastomers. All work will involve collaboration with industrial designers and manufacturing engineers to build a final product that is beautiful and easy to build at scale.
React Native Engineer
If this is the right role for you, you will work with our engineers, architects, and designers to create a high-end interface for interaction with our robotic systems. This is a core team role that will require expert software development and excellent interpretation of requirements into a functional and robust system.
You'll need to be comfortable with complex JavaScript on both the frontend and backend of an app, know how to work with binary protocols, have experience with data visualization, and know how to work successfully in a team environment to build production quality systems that delight end users.
Perception Engineer
If this is the right role for you, You will be an engineer developing different sets of tools at the heart of the perception team.
Point cloud filtering, multiple cameras calibration, sensor fusion, body fitting, machine learning and optimization will be your day to day work. You might help in the interaction with our robots using ROS infrastructure, as well as developing novel algorithms to improve our body modeling and palpation systems. You do need to be diligent, curious, have a clear sense of urgency, and a willingness to take complete ownership of your code from prototype all the way through deployment
