We are hiring a Mechatronics Engineer
⏰ Start date: ASAP
📍Zürich, Switzerland (on-site, remote not possible)
🦾 Full-time (100%)
💼 Your role
You’ll ideate, design, manufacture, and deploy core mechatronics systems on our robot. By joining the first team in the world desiging from first principles how a robot should clean commercial spaces, you are going to heavily rely on your creativity and determination to solve problems in unconventional ways.
What you’ll be doing:
- Build custom electromechanical systems from a robot arm and grippers to automatic tool changers, to a docking station
- Build cleaning-specific mechanical systems like cleaning end-effector tools and fluid systems
- Drive our HIL testing efforts to prove effectiveness and durability of our mechanical systems
- Contribute to the industrialization efforts required to manufacture hundreds of robots
🤖 You
- 3+ years in a professional Mechanical Engineering environment, preferably Robotics, Automotive, or Aerospace
- Strong CAD modeling experience (e.g. Onshape)
- Experience with metals and plastics manufacturing processes
- Experience in robotics actuation systems (e.g. BLDC motors, gearboxes, encoders, torque sensors)
- Experience in fluid systems (e.g. water pumps, valves, nozzles)
- Experience writing basic software for test benches independently (Python, C++)
- Bonus
- Experience building custom PCBs
- You have built articulated robots before (e.g. a robot arm or robot leg, quadruped, humanoid)
- You have contributed building a hardware product shipped in the hundreds of units to customers
