About the role
What You’ll Do
Design and integrate actuation hardware for autonomous mining vehicles — drive-by-wire steering, braking, and throttle, electric and electrohydraulic actuators, and the motion and powertrain systems that drive the vehicle
Develop robotic mechanisms and automation hardware (manipulators, end-effectors, automated tooling, and material-handling systems) for unmanned mine operations
Produce detailed CAD models, drawings, tolerance stack-ups, and bills of materials ready for fabrication, procurement, and assembly
Select, size, and qualify actuators, drives, motors, gearboxes, bearings, and e-powertrain components, balancing build-vs-buy decisions against cost, lead time, and reliability
Lead subsystem bench and rig testing, build and instrument prototypes, and drive reliability growth against MTBF and availability targets
Collaborate with controls and autonomy-software engineers to integrate actuation, compute, and sensing into a complete vehicle
What You’ll Bring
Bachelor's degree in Mechatronics, Mechanical, Robotics, Electrical, or related engineering discipline
5-10+ years designing complex electromechanical or robotic systems, ideally including mobile or heavy equipment
Strong proficiency with 3D CAD
Hands-on experience with actuation and motion systems - drive-by-wire, electric or electrohydraulic actuators, motors, drives, gearboxes, and their integration
Working knowledge of design-for-manufacture/assembly and of component selection, qualification, and supplier engagement
Experience in autonomous vehicles, robotics, automotive, or off-highway equipment strongly preferred
