The Boring Company
Texas
The Boring Company was founded to solve the problem of soul-destroying traffic by creating an underground network of tunnels. Today, we are creating the technology to increase tunneling speed and decrease costs by a factor of 10 or more with the ultimate goal of making Hyperloop adoption viable and enabling rapid transit across densely populated regions.
Responsibilities
- Design and conduct experiments that serve to optimize the tunneling process (increase speed, reduce cost).
- Design and conduct experiments that validate machine reliability.
- Develop data-based models for key tunneling parameters.
- Communicate with all stakeholders in the test process and clearly convey results and consequences.
- Ensure all systems are compliant with appropriate regulations such as MSHA, OSHA, NEC, NFPA, Class 1 Division 2 Hazardous Location.
Basic Qualifications
- Bachelor or graduate degree in physics, chemistry, math and/or engineering.
- Experience conducting research – hypothesize, design experiments, collect data, verify/reject hypotheses.
- Hands-on hardware experience fabricating and assembling complex systems – can be in a professional, academic or recreational setting.
- Experience analyzing data using software (Python, Mathematica, Matlab, R, etc.).
- Strong math and physics skills (Calculus 1 & 2, Physics 1 & 2)
- Acute attention to detail.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience on cross-functional technical projects (mechanical, electrical, software).
- Design experience using CAD software, FEA software, PCB design software, and/or software development.
- Experience analyzing data using Python.
- Experience in creating original technical deliverables (papers, presentations, posters, etc.)
- Knowledgeable in multivariable calculus and linear algebra.
- Knowledgeable in kinematics, thermodynamics, mechatronics, mechanism design, fluid power system concepts and design, dynamics, material selection, testing methods, and common machining and fabrication processes.
- Basic knowledge of tunnel boring processes and related systems (excavation, ground conditioning, grout, tunnel lining, muck removal, etc.)
