Senior Mechanical Engineer

Full-Time
(2025-04-02)

Our company began in 2008 as ElliptiGO, Inc. with the mission of launching the elliptical bicycle industry. In the sixteen years since, we have established ElliptiGO as the brand leader in that industry by selling more than 40,000 bikes to customers around the world. With the accelerating growth of longevity research and understanding, we have expanded our product portfolio to support other aspects of healthy aging beyond cardiovascular fitness. We recently secured the exclusive distributorship for North America for GIBBON, the world leader in slacklining and a company that has been training balance athletes since 2007. In 2022 we launched the GIBBON SlackBoard in North America. That product grew from $3.1 million in revenue in 2023 to more than $14 million in revenue in 2024, dramatically impacting our business. We have started 2025 on a similar trajectory and need more resources to support this extreme growth.
