Pros
As a mechanical engineer here, you get end-to-end ownership that’s almost impossible to find at a big OEM. On any given week I’m touching plumbing systems, interior design, tooling, process improvement, and hands-on troubleshooting on the line. The product is genuinely novel — an electric travel trailer — so you’re solving problems that don’t have a textbook answer yet. Strong, collaborative engineering and manufacturing teams, fast decision-making, and you actually see your designs roll off the line and into the field. If you want to grow your breadth quickly and build things that ship, this is the place.
Cons
It’s a startup, so expect ambiguity and a fast pace. Processes and documentation are still maturing, which means you’ll sometimes build the SOP and the part at the same time. You’ll wear many hats, so it suits engineers who are comfortable with scope that shifts week to week rather than a narrow, well-defined lane.
