About the Company
Building Machines is a venture backed startup bringing automated solutions to construction that will revolutionize the productivity of today's workers. We’re innovating in a centuries old industry that has seen little technological progress in the last century. Our systems improve the efficiency, quality, and price of traditionally cast concrete products by leveraging automation, advanced sensors, ML/AI, and robotics.
Building Machines was founded by former Amazonians, and leveraged and improved upon the Amazon culture, leadership principles, and drive for success. If you thrive on big problems, inventing elegant systems, getting your hands dirty, and delivering systems that change the world, you’ve found the right place.
We’re conveniently located off of 495 and 290 in Hudson MA, home to award winning restaurants and breweries and the winner of “America’s Best Main Street”.
Building Machines is still an early startup but we’re already offering some sweet perks including access to medical, vision, and dental insurance, 401K plan, weekly BBQs, and premium coffee. And you can help determine what comes next!
