Job description
  • Design and develop mechanical structures and components for autonomous robotic platforms using CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Fusion 360, AutoCAD).
  • Perform structural analysis (e.g., FEA), thermal analysis, and material selection for robotic components.
  • Analyze robotic kinematics and dynamics to inform mechanical design and ensure system stability and performance, particularly for aerial platforms.
  • Design and integrate actuation systems (motors, gearboxes, linkages) and custom end-effectors or payloads.
  • Prototype and manufacture components using techniques such as 3D printing, CNC machining, molding, and sheet metal fabrication.
  • Oversee the assembly and physical integration of robotic systems.
  • Design mounting solutions and ensure proper physical integration of sensors (e.g., IMUs, LiDAR, cameras) and electronic components.
  • Conduct validation and performance testing (including environmental and flight tests) focusing on mechanical robustness, reliability, and system dynamics.
  • Collaborate closely with electrical, control, and software engineers to ensure seamless integration of mechanical designs.
  • Create and maintain thorough technical documentation (CAD models, drawings, assembly instructions, test procedures / reports).
  • Requirements

    Required Qualifications :

    • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Robotics, or a related field.
    • 3+ years of experience in robotics hardware design and development with a strong mechanical / mechatronics focus, or equivalent academic R&D experience.
    • Proficiency in 3D CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Fusion 360).
    • Strong knowledge of mechanical design principles, materials science, manufacturing processes, kinematics, and dynamics.
    • Hands-on experience with rapid prototyping techniques (e.g., 3D printing, machining) and workshop tools.
    • Experience designing and building functional robotic systems or complex mechatronic devices.
    • Preferred Qualifications :

    • PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field.
    • Experience with simulation tools for mechanical analysis (FEA, CFD).
    • Experience designing for specific environmental conditions (e.g., vibration, temperature, ingress protection).
    • Experience with designing aerial robotic platforms.
    • Familiarity with relevant robotics safety standards (e.g., ISO 10218, ISO 13849) and risk assessment methodologies.
    • Demonstrated ability to take a design from concept through prototyping to functional hardware.
    • A strong research record or portfolio showcasing mechanical / mechatronics design projects.
