## About the role

• Own the mechanical design and architecture of robotic subsystems — structures, mechanisms, frames, housings, and precision assemblies — from concept through production deployment. This engineer will own the frame design, new warehouse layout design, and automation equipment integration • Produce production-grade engineering drawings with GD&T (ASME Y14.5): sound datum schemes, functional tolerancing, and tolerance stack-up analysis that suppliers can build from without guessing

## What they're looking for

- • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field
- • 7+ years developing complex mechanical or electromechanical hardware
- • Deep mechanical engineering expertise: machine design, mechanisms, structural and stress analysis, solid mechanics, materials, and product development
- • Strong, demonstrable GD&T fluency (ASME Y14.5) — you can define a datum scheme, defend a tolerance stack, and produce release-ready drawings
- • Proficiency with 3D CAD tools such as SolidWorks, Creo, or equivalent
- • Solid understanding of manufacturing processes — machining, sheet metal, injection molding, weldments, and assembly methods — and how design choices drive cost and yield
