Laplacian Way
우리는
성남에 본사를 둔 AI 스타트업이다. 글로벌 시장을 겨냥한 최전선의 제품을 만든다. 소수 정예. 평범함은 용납하지 않는다. 빠르게 움직인다.
일하는 방식
실력은 기본이다. 진짜 차이는 그 다음에서 갈린다.
제품이 북극성이다. 어디로 갈지, 무엇을 만들지, 성공을 어떻게 정의할지 — 모두 제품에서 비롯된다. 기술을 위한 기술은 만들지 않는다. 실제 고객 현장에서 돌아가고, 실제 비즈니스 KPI를 움직이는, 처음부터 끝까지 작동하는 시스템. 우리가 존재하는 이유다.
기술은 제품을 가능하게 만드는 토대다. 제조와 물류를 완전 자율화하는 것 — 그것이 우리가 이기는 방식이다. 엔지니어링이 무게중심이며, 나머지 모든 것은 엔지니어링을 받치기 위해 존재한다.
사람이 기술과 비즈니스를 현실로 만든다. 그래서 사람이 먼저다. 우리가 함께하는 사람은 자기 역할이나 직책에 선을 긋지 않는다. 일을 스스로 찾아내고, 빈 곳을 메우고, 끝까지 해낸다. 모호함은 멈출 이유가 아니라 움직일 여지다. 문제는 그냥 실행하는 사람이 푼다.
우리는 자기보다 제품을 앞세우는 사람과 일한다. 역할, 권한, 조직의 형태를 바꾸는 것이 제품의 성공에 도움이 된다면, 기꺼이 바꾸는 사람. 사내 정치도, 자기 조직 키우기도 없다. 오직 제품의 성공을 위한 결정만 있을 뿐이다. 그것이 우리가 찾는 사람이다.
속도, 속도, 속도. 내놓고, 배우고, 다시 내놓는다 — 안주할 틈 없이 빠르게.
About Us
Headquartered in Seongnam, we're an AI startup building frontier products for global markets. Small team, zero tolerance for mediocrity, moving fast.
How We Work
Skill is the bare minimum. What sets us apart is what comes next.
Product is our north star. Where we're going, what we build, how we define success — all of it flows from the product. Not tech for tech's sake. End-to-end systems that run on a real customer floor and move real business KPIs. That's why we exist.
Technology is what makes the product possible. Making manufacturing and logistics fully autonomous is how we win. Engineering is the center of gravity — everything else exists to serve it.
People are what make the technology and the business real. That's why people come first. The people we hire don't draw lines around their scope or their title. They find the work, close the gaps, and see it through. Ambiguity is room to operate, not a reason to stall. Problems get solved by people who just execute.
We hire people who put the product ahead of ego, title, and turf. If changing their role, ownership, or team structure helps the product win, they change it. No politics. No empire-building. Just what makes the product win.
Speed, speed, speed. We ship, we learn, we ship again — faster than feels comfortable.
About the Role
As a Robotics Hardware Intern at Laplacian Robotics, you will work hands-on across the full hardware development cycle of our robotic systems. From sketching out a gripper concept in CAD, printing it on our 3D printers, and stress-testing it on the bench, to figuring out how to mount a new sensor cleanly onto a robot arm — you will be in the middle of it all. You will help refine the mechanical design of our robot arms, run performance tests on our robot hands, and own the practical side of hardware: sourcing parts, placing orders, and coordinating with external manufacturers to make sure the right components show up at the right time. This role is built for someone who learns by making, iterates fast, and enjoys turning rough ideas into physical hardware that actually works. You will work closely with our engineering team and see your designs go from a CAD file to a part that ends up on a real robot.
Key Responsibilities
-
Design 3D models of robotic components (grippers, mounts, brackets, end-effectors) using CAD tools, and rapidly prototype them with in-house 3D printers
-
Design mounting structures and integration solutions for various sensors (force/torque, tactile, vision, IMU, etc.) on our robotic platforms
-
Contribute to the detailed mechanical design of robot arms, taking concepts from early-stage ideas to manufacturable hardware
-
Plan and execute performance tests on robot hands — defining test setups, running experiments, measuring metrics (grip force, precision, durability), and documenting results
-
Manage hardware logistics end-to-end: sourcing components, placing purchase orders, coordinating with external manufacturers and machine shops, and tracking incoming parts
-
Iterate quickly between design, build, and test cycles, and feed learnings back into the next revision
Requirements
-
Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics or a related field
-
Proficiency in at least one 3D CAD tool (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Onshape, or equivalent)
-
Hands-on experience with 3D printing (FDM required)
-
Strong hands-on mindset — you enjoy building, breaking, and rebuilding physical things
-
Fast execution and solid problem-solving instincts
Preferred Qualifications
-
Project experience with robotic grippers, manipulators, or actuators
-
Experience with SLA, SLS, or other advanced 3D printing processes
-
Experience integrating sensors (IMU, force/torque, tactile, etc.) into mechanical systems
-
Basic electronics and wiring skills
-
Familiarity with Python or C++
-
Experience with component sourcing and BOM management
-
A portfolio of personal projects, club work, or competition results showing robotics or mechatronics hardware you have built
