Wandercraft is hiring!

About

Chez Wandercraft, nous concevons, fabriquons et vendons des robots dont la mission est d’aider les humains à faire ce qu’ils ne peuvent pas faire. Nous mettons en oeuvre les technologies d’AI et de robotique les plus avancées dans les métiers de la santé et de l’industrie.

Atalante X, le premier exosquelette de marche autonome au monde, est utilisé dans plus de 100 centres de rééducation sur 4 continents, et permet à des patients qui ont perdu la marche de ré-apprendre à marcher. Avec Atalante X ils font plus d’un million de pas chaque mois.

Après plus de 10 ans sur le terrain et des milliards de pas analysés, nous lançons Eve, le premier exosquelette personnel auto-équilibré, pensé pour aider les utilisateurs en fauteuil roulant à se lever et marcher dans leur vie quotidienne, chez eux et dans la ville.

Enfin, nous commençons à appliquer notre technologie dans l’industrie, avec la gamme de robots humanoïdes Calvin. Calvin-40, notre premier modèle, a été conçu en 40 jours pour soulager les opérateurs en usine des tâches pénibles ou dangereuses. Bientôt une évolution de Calvin accompagnera des personnes avec une autonomie réduite dans leurs gestes quotidiens.

Depuis Paris et New York, notre équipe de 110 ingénieurs, cliniciens, chercheurs et opérateurs est unie autour d’une même mission : concevoir des robots qui améliorent la vie des humains.

Ce n’est pas une simple équipe que nous assemblons : c’est une aventure portée par des esprits curieux, engagés, des pionniers prêts à construire un futur qui a du sens.

Envie de rejoindre l’aventure ? Viens façonner avec nous la prochaine génération de robotique humanoïde, alimentée par l’IA et guidée par l’humain.
