About the role
- As a CAE Engineer on the Dexmate Robotics team, you will be at the forefront of designing and validating mechanical systems for our next-generation manipulation robots. You'll guide design decisions using high-fidelity finite element models grounded in sound engineering principles, working closely with mechanical, electrical, controls, software, and
- manufacturing teams to bring unprecedented robotic capabilities to life.
Responsibilities
- You'll guide design decisions using high-fidelity finite element models grounded in sound engineering principles, working closely with mechanical, electrical, controls, software, and manufacturing teams to bring unprecedented robotic capabilities to life.
- Develop and analyze comprehensive finite element models for robotic systems, from individual components to full assemblies
- Guide mechanical design teams with actionable insights and design direction based on rigorous analysis
- Optimize structural designs to minimize weight while maximizing stiffness, reliability, and performance under real-world operational loads
- Validate FEA models through experimental testing and iterate based on physical performance data
- Collaborate with controls engineers to understand dynamic load profiles and system-level performance requirements
- Support root cause analysis and failure investigation for production issues
- Develop CAE workflows, best practices, and documentation to scale analysis capabilities across the team
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience in designing and analyzing mechanical systems using FEA and CAE tools
- Proficiency in CAE software (Abaqus, ANSYS, LS-DYNA, COMSOL, OptiStruct, or equivalent)
- Experience with both implicit and explicit finite element analysis
- Demonstrated ability to conduct static, dynamic, and durability analyses
- Strong understanding of mechanical design principles and ability to translate analysis into actionable design recommendations
- Experience with experimental validation methods and correlation between simulation and physical testing
Nice to have
- Advanced degree (MS/PhD) in Mechanical Engineering or related field
- Experience in robotics, automation, or mechatronics industries
- Proficiency with multi-body dynamics simulation (ADAMS, MuJoCo, PyBullet)
- Experience analyzing aluminum structures, composites, and advanced materials
- Knowledge of advanced joining methods (adhesives, welding, mechanical fasteners)
- Expertise in non-linear analysis, contact mechanics, and material characterization
- Proficiency in programming/scripting for automation (Python, MATLAB)
- Experience with CAD software (SolidWorks, OnShape, CATIA, NX, etc.)
