Mechanical Engineer and Technician – Robotics

About the role

A robotics company focused on AI and robotics is looking for mechanical engineers with a strong grasp of fundamentals and hands-on experience to build and maintain mobile robots. You will join cross-functional teams developing high-performance, intelligent mobile robotic systems.

Key responsibilities

• Produce CAD models, technical drawings, specifications, assembly instructions and testing plans for complex parts and assemblies.
• Drive daily hands-on prototyping, testing and debugging.
• Assemble, fix and commission robots.
• Collaborate on hardware and system design across teams, share knowledge and champion engineering best practices.

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering with relevant professional engineering experience; robotic engineering experience highly preferred.
• Demonstrated experience designing, maintaining and fielding mobile robots, including safety and operational protocols.
• Experience designing for CNC machining, sheet metal, injection molding and casting, and for rugged, field-deployable systems (sensor integration, cable routing, IP requirements).
• Excellent communication skills and a collaborative, team-oriented mindset.

Required skills

• Mastery of at least one 3D CAD system (e.g., SolidWorks, Onshape) and version control (PDM, Windchill or similar).
• Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFM/DFA), GD&T, tolerance analysis and part inspection.
• Engineering analysis tools such as simulation, FEA, Python and MATLAB.
• Hands-on prototyping with mills, lathes, 3D printers and laser cutters.
• Bonus: custom actuation design, frameless rotary actuation, or expertise in robotic actuation, electromechanical architecture, safety-critical design or complex mechanisms.
