Engineer Lead -Modular Construction Join a Team Engineering the Future of Construction: Building Beyond Bricks: A Collaborative Journey Towards Transformative Personal Construction Inspired by the vision of empowering individuals and enriching lives through personal building, we embark on a transformative journey driven by the power of collaboration and fueled by groundbreaking scientific advancements. This isn't just about erecting structures; it's about unlocking human potential by creating personal spaces that inspire, nurture, and propel individuals and communities towards a brighter future. Our Mission of developing Modular Building Technology that empowers & enriches customers’ lives - benefits all of humanity. To revolutionise personal construction through cutting-edge scientific advancements and human-centric design, creating modular building systems that are: Building the Future, Block by Block: Factory-born precision: Envision modular systems born in controlled factory environments, ensuring exceptional quality, consistency, and precision in every block. Intuitive assembly: Design building blocks that snap together seamlessly, akin to LEGO®, empowering individuals with user-friendly construction experiences. Robust resilience: Develop systems that withstand harsh handling, extreme weather conditions, and the test of time, providing long-lasting value and peace of mind. Speeding up construction: Revolutionize construction timelines, transforming months into hours, unlocking the potential for rapid deployment of homes, schools, and essential infrastructure. Team - Core Values M. B. T focus (Modular Building Technology) We are committed to building fast, safe, intuitive beneficial MBT that will have a massive positive impact on people’s future. Anything that doesn’t help with that is out of scope. Intense and scrappy Building something exceptional requires hard work (often on unglamorous stuff) and urgency; everything (that we choose to do) is important. Be unpretentious and do what works; find the best ideas wherever they come from. Scale We believe that scale—in our models, our systems, ourselves, our processes, and our ambitions—is magic. When in doubt, scale it up. Make something people love Our technology and products should have a transformatively positive effect on people’s lives. Team spirit Our biggest advances, and differentiation, come from effective collaboration in and across teams. Although our teams have increasingly different identities and priorities, the overall purpose and goals have to remain perfectly aligned. Nothing is someone else’s problem.
