About the role

Mechanical Engineer, Robotics

Responsibilities

  • Engineer the mechanical side of data center robotics: end effectors, docking, and interfaces between robots and plant.
  • Design the physical integration: how robots handle, mate with, and service equipment designed for humans.
  • Prototype fast and test hard: concepts to instrumented trials in weeks.
  • Productionize what works: DFM, reliability, and spares for hardware that runs unattended.
  • Take hardware from prototype through reliability testing.
  • Design interfaces and tolerances that survive the real world.
  • Test to failure on purpose and instrument everything.
  • Work in fast loops with controls and software.

Requirements

  • Designed mechanical systems for robotics, automation, or mechatronics products.
  • Taken hardware from prototype through reliability testing.
  • Design interfaces and tolerances that survive the real world.
  • Test to failure on purpose and instrument everything.
  • Work in fast loops with controls and software.

Nice-to-Haves

  • End effector and gripper design.
  • GD&T depth.
  • DFM at low volume.
  • Server and rack hardware familiarity.
