About us:

Our vision here at Mach is to become the leading provider of foundational automation for off-road machinery to improve how food and fiber is produced, buildings are constructed, and infrastructure is installed and managed. We believe we can be a catalyst for disruption and innovation in off-road automation with the mission to empower leading Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM’s) by continuing to provide world class solutions in perception, navigation, route planning, monitoring, connectivity, and the tools to customize solutions for their desired use and unique needs. Our customer first process integrates the technologies which enable autonomy on a wide variety of machines for different uses.

Mach was formed in 2022 through the merger of two leading autonomy teams in the agriculture and government autonomy fields. While still operating in stealth mode MACH is addressing a growing market for off-road autonomy and robotics especially in agriculture. We are looking to add passionate, motivated individuals to our highly experienced and talented engineering team. Mach is especially looking for people that want to make a positive difference in how the world gets work done and leave a legacy through their contributions!
