## About the role

Own complex mechanical subsystems that make robot manipulation and data collection work. You will turn uncertain requirements into mechanisms, end effectors, fixtures, and sensor assemblies, then carry those designs through fabrication, integration, validation, and repeatable builds. This is a hands-on design role. You will define the approach within your scope, work closely with electrical, software, and research colleagues, and stay responsible for the reliability and maintainability of the hardware you build. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Evidence of independently owning complex mechanical design work through fabrication, integrated testing, and sustained use
- Strong 3D CAD, engineering drawings, tolerance analysis, and practical application of GD&T
- Sound mechanics and the ability to justify design choices with calculations, analysis, and experiment
- Hands-on skill in prototyping and assembly, and practical understanding of machining and manufacturing processes
- Ability to explain a failed design, the evidence that isolated the cause, and the iteration that resolved it
- Ability to coordinate across disciplines, communicate risks early, and produce documentation others can build from
