Backburner Labs is a multidisciplinary engineering consultancy where mechanical, electrical, systems, and software engineers work together to solve complex technical challenges. From embedded systems and industrial automation to robotics, medical devices, IoT, cloud platforms, and AI-enabled applications, we help our clients build products that often don’t exist yet. Our clients come to us when the engineering is difficult, the timeline is ambitious, and there isn’t a roadmap waiting to be followed. They’re looking for engineers who can create one. If that sounds exciting rather than intimidating, you’ll probably enjoy working here. You’ll collaborate with talented engineers across disciplines, influence technical decisions, learn new technologies, and help turn ideas on a whiteboard into products used in the real world. We move quickly, trust our engineers, and expect everyone to contribute ideas, not just code, designs, or specifications. If you’re the kind of engineer who asks, “What’s the hardest problem we’re solving?” before asking, “What’s the tech stack?”, you’ll probably feel right at home. Come build what doesn’t exist yet.
