Description
About the Role
Join a small, hands-on hardware team developing autonomous robots for industrial environments. You will take mechanical subsystems from concept through working prototype, helping turn robotic systems into dependable infrastructure for data centre operations.
What You'll Do
Own mechanical subsystem design from initial sketches through prototypes and iterative refinement, selecting materials, tolerances, and manufacturing methods.
Design parts and assemblies in CAD, using hand calculations and FEA to guide decisions and prepare designs for rapid prototyping.
Fabricate and test prototypes using 3D printers, CNC equipment, and shop tools.
Integrate mechanical designs with motors, sensors, electronics, and actuators on robotic arms and mobile platforms.
Work with electrical, software, and robotics colleagues to develop autonomous systems for production deployment.
Location
On-site in San Francisco, United States.
Requirements
What We're Looking For
2 to 5 years of professional experience designing mechanical hardware for 6DOF robot arms or comparable multi-axis robotic systems.
Experience taking physical robot prototypes from concept to working hardware, including mechanisms, joints, drivetrains, or end effectors, and shipping robotics hardware on a small, hands-on team.
Proficiency with SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Onshape, or equivalent CAD tools.
A BS in Mechanical Engineering or a related field, plus practical fabrication experience with 3D printing, CNC machining, and shop tools.
Experience integrating mechatronic systems, such as motors, sensors, and actuators; FEA or topology optimization experience is also relevant.
Ability to own subsystems end to end and make progress in a fast-moving, lightly structured environment.
Authorization to work in the United States is required.
Benefits
