Mechanical Engineer

Responsibilities

• Lead the mechanical design of robotic hands and actuation modules
• Select key components including actuators, bearings, sensors, and structural materials
• Build physical prototypes using 3D printing, CNC machining, and other fabrication methods
• Define and execute testing plans to evaluate performance against requirements
• Iterate on designs based on test results and collaboration with cross-functional teams

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience designing and building robotic systems—preferably robotic hands
• Deep expertise with CAD tools (Onshape, SolidWorks, or equivalent)
• Proven experience designing actuators using frameless motors
• Strong background in designing custom gear trains
• In-depth understanding of mechanical tolerances and precision assembly
• Able to run basic FEA simulations for strength and deformation analysis
• Mastery of prototyping tools, fabrication techniques, and hands-on build experience
