• Strong programming skills in Python for test automation and experience with motor control systems
• Excellent documentation abilities and attention to detail in testing procedures
• Demonstrated success in cross-functional collaboration and technical communication

• Experience with automated test development in manufacturing environments

We won't roll our eyes if your socks don't match. We get it. But then, if you spend those extra few minutes in the morning matching your socks and shirt, we get that too. Our workspaces are sometimes spotless and sometimes chaotic, and we celebrate messy exploration. We work through complex problems but generate simple and elegant solutions. We strive to look at things differently, and never do anything solely because "that's the way it's always been done."

We're a team of designers and engineers, industry-veterans and serial entrepreneurs, artists and developers. Originally spun out of Stanford and the University of Colorado, we now call Emeryville home, with strong ties to Hong Kong.

unspun is committed to building a diverse team that reflects a broad range of backgrounds, thoughts, and experiences. We are an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, national origin, status as an individual with a disability, status as protected veteran, or any other legally protected characteristics.
