ROLE MISSION
You are responsible for turning ideas into physical reality.
Your job is to build, assemble, install, and maintain the Quantum Space Node Lite (QSN-L)a next- intelligent parking space system that blends hardware, sensors, lighting, and edge computing into a single deployable unit.
You will be the person who ensures that when we say this node works in the real world, it actually doesrain, heat, traffic, vibration, and all.
This role is ideal for someone who:
loves working with their hands
enjoys problem-solving in the field
takes pride in clean, professional installs
wants to help invent a new category of infrastructure
