SPECIALIST ENGINEERING RECRUITMENT
Recruitment for Robotics, Autonomy & Advanced Hardware
From a first specialist hire to a multidisciplinary engineering team, GlobalWorks helps define the capability you need and search the markets where it can be found. Our primary focus is growing US engineering-led companies.
THREE CONNECTED DISCIPLINES
Depth where software meets hardware.
Robotics
Software, controls, perception, systems and deployment. Search around the engineering stage and the work the role must own.
Autonomy & physical AI
Perception, planning, embedded intelligence and real-world validation. Define the operating constraints before defining the candidate market.
Hardware & manufacturing
Mechanical, electrical, firmware, NPI, test and engineering leadership. Connect the brief to production readiness.
HIRING IN CONTEXT
The right experience depends on the next milestone.
Prototype to product
Look beyond whether someone has built a prototype. Establish what they have made repeatable, maintainable and testable.
Validation to deployment
Clarify the conditions the system must withstand, the evidence required and how engineering will respond to field failures.
Production and team scale
Distinguish technical execution from process ownership, supplier coordination and the leadership needed to grow a team.
WHAT TO EXPECT
A defined brief and a relevant market.
We agree role outcomes, essential experience, location and compensation parameters. Direct search then combines relevant employer research with adjacent-industry hypotheses. Introductions include context, evidence and questions for the hiring team to validate.
01 / UNDERSTAND
Agree the business problem, role outcomes and hiring constraints.
02 / MAP
Research relevant employers and adjacent talent pools.
03 / ENGAGE
Approach suitable professionals through direct search and relationships.
04 / ASSESS
Explore relevant evidence, motivation and practical alignment.
05 / INTRODUCE
Provide context and support interview alignment and hiring decisions.

BUYER QUESTIONS
A few useful answers.
Are the listed roles previous placements?
No. They describe representative areas we can target. They are not claims of completed placements or client relationships.
What if our role crosses several disciplines?
We start with the primary outcome and technical interfaces. That helps separate the core capability from skills the wider team can supply.
LET’S TALK ABOUT THE WORK
Which hire moves your product forward?
We discuss the role, what makes the hire difficult, relevant market constraints and whether specialist search makes sense. Scope and commercial terms are agreed before work begins.
