Project Designer

About Mytra

We’re creating an entirely new way to solve the most ubiquitous problem in industry - moving and storing material. We’re applying robotics and distributed software to create a new class of product for this $1T market. We’re focused on the supply chain industry first. The industry is in a massive bind with the continued growth of e-commerce, sharp rise in costs, and supply chain disruptions. What has been a “sleepy” industry for decades is now at the epicenter of sustaining the global economy.

The Project Designer

The Project Designer is a key member of the Project Engineering team responsible for translating customer operational needs into detailed, practical system designs for automated pallet storage solutions. This role bridges the gap between customer requirements, sales concepts, and engineering implementation by creating layout drawings, design documentation, and coordination packages that guide downstream deployment of full scale systems.

Responsibilities

• Produce 2D/3D layouts for automated storage systems
• Translate customer building drawings (architectural, structural, MEP) into design-ready base models.
• Validate system fit, clearances, travel paths, maintenance access, and code compliance requirements.
• Create design details and documentation packages used for internal review and customer approval.
• Collaborate with x-functional teams to refine system concepts into constructible designs.
• Support interface planning and coordination with controls, electrical, mechanical, and safety engineering teams both on the customer team and internally to Mytra.

• Communicate design intent clearly through visuals, drawings, and written documentation.
• Provide technical insights and support during customer presentations or milestone reviews.

Requirements

• Proficiency in CAD tools (Revit, Rhino+Grasshopper) or equivalent; onshape is a plus).
• Understanding of material handling systems, warehouse operations, or industrial automation.
• Ability to read and interpret architectural, structural, mechanical, and electrical plans.
• Spatial reasoning and layout optimization skills.
• Working knowledge and experience with of Fire Life Safety, Fire Protection codes and requirements.
• 3+ years in design or drafting within automation, manufacturing, warehouse equipment, construction, or related fields.
• Experience with project-based work, engineering documentation, or system integration.
• Familiarity with building codes, safety standards, or industrial equipment design is required
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to spot conflicts or design risks early.
• Excellent communication skills for coordinating across engineering, sales, and customer teams.
• A positive and proactive mindset with a willingness to follow through on challenging problems.
• Comfortable balancing multiple projects with varying complexity and timelines.
• A collaborative mindset with a willingness to iterate based on feedback.
• A problem-solving mentality and curiosity about how complex automated systems work.
