Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

15 transfer filings in the last year, covering 15 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • The chassis is the structural and electromechanical backbone of the robot, and it ties together mechanical structure, actuation, power, and controls.
  • This is a high impact role contributing from concept through deployment.
  • ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES or KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES

Responsibilities

  • This role sits at the intersection of structural and mechanical design, power distribution, thermal management, and systems integration.
  • If you thrive in a fast paced environment with a successful track record in engineering design verification and product validation of electro-mechanical products, we'd love to speak with you.
  • Develop and maintain system level requirements and specifications for the robot chassis and structural subsystems.
  • Contribute to and implement system architecture for the humanoid chassis.
  • Collaborate on interface definitions between chassis and structural hardware and higher level actuation, power, compute, and control systems.
  • Drive system integration efforts across mechanical structure, power distribution, wiring and harness, and thermal subsystems.
  • Develop verification and validation (V&V) plans and test protocols, including structural load testing, fatigue and life testing, thermal characterization, and vibration and shock testing.
  • Partner with mechanical, electrical, controls, AI, manufacturing, and supply chain teams.
  • Support systems requirement definition and integration across structure, power management, electrical architecture, sensing, compute mounting, and cable routing.
  • Design for structural integrity, fault tolerance, serviceability, and reliability in a production environment.

Requirements

  • Strong experience designing and integrating complex structural, mechanical, and electrical systems for real time, dynamic robotics applications.
  • Strong understanding of structural mechanics (FEA, stress and fatigue analysis), materials selection (metals, composites, additive manufacturing), GD&T, and DFM and DFA for production hardware.
  • Experience with actuator, gearbox, and drivetrain integration into a structural chassis, including mounting, load transfer, and alignment and tolerancing.
  • Experience with wiring harness design and routing, cable management, and EMI and thermal considerations within a dense electromechanical chassis.
  • Experience bringing robotic and mechatronic hardware from prototype to production, including tolerance stack up and manufacturing process selection.
  • Knowledge of environmental sealing and ingress protection, vibration and shock qualification, and thermal management for embedded electronics within a structural enclosure.
  • Familiarity with requirements management and traceability tools and model-based systems engineering practices.
  • Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent.

Skills

  • Excellent cross functional communication skills.

Benefits

  • Design and support real time monitoring, structural health data logging, and remote diagnostic capabilities.
