Remotely
Full-time

 We are a leader in developing next-generation automated solutions, fostering a culture of innovation and collaborative excellence. Our team comprises experts from diverse engineering fields, all dedicated to solving complex challenges and creating technology that makes a tangible impact. You will be part of an environment that values curiosity, encourages continuous learning, and provides the autonomy to explore novel ideas and push the boundaries of modern engineering.


Key Responsibilities

- Spearhead the end-to-end design and development of integrated electromechanical and robotic systems—from initial concept and simulation to final production-ready prototypes.

- Develop and implement sophisticated control systems for actuators and motors, ensuring precise motion control, high efficiency, and system stability.

- Program embedded systems using C/C++ and other relevant languages, focusing on real-time operating systems (RTOS) and firmware development for microcontrollers (e.g., ARM Cortex, STM32, ESP32).

- Lead the selection, integration, and calibration of sensors (vision, lidar, IMUs, force/torque) and develop robust sensor fusion algorithms to enable advanced system perception and autonomy.

- Create detailed 3D models and 2D drawings for mechanical components and assemblies using CAD software like SolidWorks, ensuring designs are optimized for manufacturability (DFM) and assembly (DFA).

- Design and integrate custom Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) for control, sensing, and power management, collaborating closely with electronics specialists.

- Conduct rigorous system modeling and simulation using tools such as MATLAB/Simulink or Gazebo to predict, validate, and optimize system performance before physical prototyping.

- Perform comprehensive Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and root cause analysis to proactively identify potential risks and enhance system reliability and safety.

- Author and maintain thorough technical documentation, including design specifications, test procedures, and validation reports for internal teams and external partners.

- Collaborate effectively within a multidisciplinary team—including mechanical, electrical, and software engineers—in a dynamic, agile environment, potentially across distributed/remote settings.


Core Qualifications

- A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related discipline.

- Proven professional experience (typically 5+ years) in a mechatronics or robotics engineering role, with a portfolio of completed projects.

- Demonstrated success in developing integrated "smart" products for industries such as consumer electronics, automotive, medical devices, aerospace, or industrial automation.

- A profound understanding of control theory, kinematics, and dynamics as they apply to robotic and automated systems. You don't just apply the theory; you intuitively grasp it.

- Exceptional problem-solving and analytical skills, with a methodical approach to troubleshooting complex, interdisciplinary issues that span hardware and software.

- Strong communication skills, capable of articulating intricate technical concepts to both engineering peers and non-technical stakeholders.

- A proactive and self-directed work ethic, comfortable with managing project timelines and deliverables with a high degree of autonomy. Are you driven by curiosity and a desire to build what's next?


Technical Proficiencies

- CAD & Mechanical Design: High proficiency in SolidWorks or similar parametric 3D CAD software. Experience with geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T).

- Simulation & Modeling: Extensive experience with MATLAB/Simulink for control system design and dynamic system simulation. Familiarity with robotics simulators like Gazebo is a significant advantage.

- Embedded Programming: Mastery of C/C++ for microcontrollers. Experience with Python for scripting, testing, and high-level control (e.g., ROS) is highly desirable.

- Electronics & PCB Design: Competence in using PCB design software such as Altium Designer, OrCAD, or KiCad. Practical skills in soldering, board bring-up, and debugging are essential.

- Control & Systems: Hands-on experience with various motor types (BLDC, stepper, servo) and their associated drive electronics and control algorithms (e.g., PID).
