About the role

  • Intelligent software orchestrates advanced robots in a high-density, end-to-end system - reinventing warehouse automation for increased efficiency, speed and flexibility.
  • This individual is expected to be both a technical leader and a proactive problem solver, capable of driving complex robotic platforms from prototype to reliable, manufacturable, customer-ready products.
  • We work closely with software, product, and field teams to ensure seamless integration and reliable performance in hospitals and care environments.

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and integrate robotic hardware systems including actuators, sensors, electromechanical subsystems, motion control, and industrial design execution
  • Rapidly prototype components, conduct structural/thermal analyses, and validate designs through performance testing, durability assessments, and failure-mode analysis.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally across mechanical, electrical, firmware, software, and manufacturing teams to ensure seamless system integration, production feasibility, and optimization of system performance.
  • Implement and refine motor control, sensor fusion, feedback control, and communication protocols to enable robust real-time robotic operation.
  • Own product and part development from concept through QMS compliance, documentation (CAD, schematics, BOMs, assembly procedures), pilot builds, production-line execution, and scalable manufacturing transition.
  • Drive continuous improvement in cost, quality, manufacturability, and design language using lean principles, while staying current on robotics advancements to incorporate innovative technologies.
  • Knowledge of industrial design principles, mockup development, lean manufacturing, QMS/MES processes, vendor interaction, and regulatory/safety compliance standards.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects in dynamic development cycles.
  • Design, develop, and integrate robotic hardware systems including actuators, sensors, electromechanical subsystems, motion control, and industrial design execution; ensuring high performance, durability, and reliability.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or master's degree in mechanical, Mechatronics, Electrical, Robotics, or Computer Engineering (or related discipline).
  • Minimum of 8 years of experience in hardware, mechatronics, or robotics engineering, with hands-on work in electromechanical integration, prototyping, and system-level development.
  • Proficiency with MCAD/ECAD along with a strong understanding of fabrication and manufacturing processes.
  • Experience with actuators, motor controllers, feedback control systems, sensor integration, embedded systems, robotic kinematics/dynamics, and simulation/ROS tools.
  • Up to 10% of travel may be required.

Compensation

  • The base range for this position in the posted location is $143,750.00 - $195,000.00 however, base pay offered may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
