INTRODUCTION
Build the AI infrastructure layer of the physical world. At Meter, we’re doing something very few teams can: applying frontier AI to reinvent how the internet itself is built, monitored, and managed.
We’ve achieved vertical integration of the entire enterprise networking stack: hardware, firmware, operating systems, and operations. This gives us full-stack visibility, the ability to control any part of the stack through a single API, a proprietary dataset no one else has, and a clear path to end-to-end automation. Plus, our systems already serve Fortune 500 companies, schools, factories, and cloud-scale clients.
Now, we’re assembling a founding core engineering team to build and train models that understand these systems, optimize operations, anticipate failures, and repair issues before humans even notice them. In sum, building the decision layer to the infrastructure the modern world runs on.
You’ll work directly with our founders and help define the future of one of the most impactful applications of models today.
Why this role is rare
- Core ground floor impact: You won’t be joining a large org with a fixed roadmap, you’ll shape the roadmap. You’ll define modeling approaches, team culture, and long-term vision alongside our executive team.
- Real-world systems + frontier AI: This isn’t chatbot optimization. You’ll be building models that power fundamental infrastructure end-to-end, where reliability, accuracy, and latency really matter.
- Unmatched data advantage, control over the full-stack: Meter owns the network from physical cables to packet-level telemetry to logs. No vendor or lab has this kind of data or control.
- Thousands of H100s at your disposal: We’ve secured compute to match our ambition.
- End-to-end ownership: You'll ship models into production networks, collaborate with firmware and application teams sitting next to you, and rapidly iterate in the wild.
- Backed by the best: Investors include Sequoia, Sam Altman, Microsoft, and more. We’re past product-market fit and entering scale.
What you might work on
- Train end-to-end models, applied to fault prediction, network state modeling, and autonomous repair.
- Build multi-modal over structured networking data, performing function-calling to make all decisions on a network.
- Evaluate model performance over real-world hardware and virtualized environments.
You’ll thrive here if you
- Have built, trained, and scaled neural networks from the ground up.
- Think in systems, not just benchmarks.
- Are excited to model the physical world and collaborate across the hardware and software stack.
- Want to build the technical DNA of a new applied research org from the ground up.

Frame your hardware experience for networking infrastructure
Meter builds physical networking hardware for enterprise environments, so position your mechanical portfolio around thermal management, enclosure design, or PCB-level work. Reviewers are looking for engineers who can bridge physical product constraints with software-integrated systems.
Verify your degree field maps to the role
E-3 and H-1B specialty occupation requirements mean your degree must specifically relate to the mechanical engineering functions in the job description. A mechanical engineering or mechatronics degree maps cleanly; an unrelated field requires a credential evaluation and supporting documentation before you apply.
Target Meter's hardware team job postings directly
Meter posts roles across firmware, hardware, and infrastructure engineering. Filter for postings that list mechanical design, CAD proficiency, or product manufacturing experience. These are the openings where your background aligns with the visa-supportable specialty occupation definition DOL requires.
Understand how E-3 LCA timing affects your start date
Your employer must file a Labor Condition Application with DOL before you can proceed to the consulate. Build at least two to three weeks of LCA processing time into your expected start date conversation with Meter's recruiting team to avoid delays.
Use Migrate Mate to find and track Meter's open engineering roles
Migrate Mate filters job listings by sponsorship history and visa type, so you can confirm which Meter postings are active and sponsorship-eligible before investing time in a full application. It removes the guesswork of cold-applying to roles with unclear sponsorship status.
Prepare F-1 OPT documentation before your offer conversation
If you're on OPT, have your EAD card, I-20 with updated OPT endorsement, and STEM extension eligibility confirmed before Meter's offer stage. Recruiters at hardware-focused companies often move quickly and expect authorization documents ready at the verbal offer.

Find Mechanical Engineer at Meter JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Meter sponsor H-1B visas for Mechanical Engineers?
Meter's documented sponsorship activity for Mechanical Engineer roles includes E-3 and F-1 OPT, not H-1B. If you're relying on the H-1B, you'd need to discuss this directly with Meter's recruiting team during the offer process. Australian citizens are better positioned here given Meter's established track record with E-3 sponsorship for engineering functions.
How do I apply for Mechanical Engineer jobs at Meter?
Applications go through Meter's careers page, where roles are listed by function including hardware and infrastructure engineering. Migrate Mate also surfaces Meter's active Mechanical Engineer openings filtered by sponsorship eligibility, so you can confirm a role supports your visa type before applying. Tailor your application to Meter's focus on physical networking infrastructure and enterprise hardware design.
Which visa types are commonly used for Mechanical Engineer roles at Meter?
Meter has sponsored E-3 and F-1 OPT for engineering roles. E-3 is available exclusively to Australian citizens and requires a confirmed job offer, a Labor Condition Application filed by Meter with DOL, and a consular interview. F-1 OPT and CPT are available to eligible international students currently enrolled in or recently graduated from a U.S. university.
What qualifications does Meter expect for Mechanical Engineer candidates?
Meter's Mechanical Engineer roles typically require a bachelor's degree or higher in mechanical engineering or a closely related field, which also satisfies the specialty occupation requirement for E-3 and H-1B eligibility. Hands-on experience with CAD tools, thermal or mechanical design, and hardware product development is relevant given Meter's focus on building physical networking infrastructure.
How do I plan my timeline if I need sponsorship for a Mechanical Engineer role at Meter?
For E-3, Meter must file an LCA with DOL before you can book a consulate appointment. That process typically takes one to three weeks, followed by a consular interview and a two to five business day passport return. Build six to eight weeks from offer acceptance to your earliest realistic start date, and confirm Meter's HR team is aligned on that window upfront.
