About NexiForge
At NexiForge, we’re rebuilding America’s industrial might to fuel humanity’s boldest ambitions from Earth to Mars. Amid a $10T crisis of lost factories and fragile supply chains, we’re creating AI-powered, software-defined contract manufacturing factories that launch 3x faster, scale 5x more efficiently, and adapt in minutes. Our focus: high-complexity assemblies like humanoid robots, drones, AI infrastructure, and satellites.
Backed by Tesla and Rivian veterans, we’re building a self-learning factory network - manufacturing’s ChatGPT moment. If you’re a top engineer, AI innovator, or builder ready to tackle trillion-dollar challenges, join us in re-industrializing the West and beyond.
