Senior Mechanical Design Engineer

Senior Mechanical Design Engineer focuses on develop mechanical components and subsystems for humanoid robots, including structural frames, precision joints, and actuator assemblies, using advanced cad tools and rigorous gd&t.

What the role involves

• Develop mechanical components and subsystems for humanoid robots, including structural frames, precision joints, and actuator assemblies, using advanced CAD tools and rigorous GD&T.
• Load handling, durability, and energy efficiency.
• Select materials and manufacturing processes that balance strength, weight, cost, and scalability to ensure both prototype feasibility and production readiness.
• Collaborate with in-house manufacturing team for rapid prototyping efforts using additive manufacturing, CNC machining, and iterative hardware testing to validate and refine design.
• Collaborate closely with electrical and software engineering teams to integrate mechanical systems with sensing, control, and embedded hardware architectures.
• Driving safety-by-design principles, performing risk assessments and implementing safeguards to meet applicable regulatory and operational safety standards.

Skills and requirements

• Strong background in mechanical design, statics, dynamics, and material science.
• Advanced proficiency in 3D parametric CAD (preferably Autodesk Inventor).
• Strong background in mechanism design, linkages, bearings, power transmission, and actuator integration.
• Experience performing FEA and structural validation for dynamic loading conditions.

Candidate fit

• technical judgement, safe working habits, careful diagnostics, and practical problem-solving
