Job description

About the company

Our client is a robotics company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Own a mechanical assembly from first concept through analysis, fabrication, assembly and testing on real hardware. Work hands-on across the full build and test cycle, turning test results into improved parts quickly.

What you'll do

- Take a subassembly and its parts from initial concept through analysis, fabrication, assembly and validation.

- Carry out supporting engineering analysis, including hand calculations, tolerance stack-ups, material and fastener selection, and basic finite element analysis.

- Model parts in 3D CAD software and prepare them for machining, sheet metal and welding.

- Build, assemble and test your own parts on fixtures and on the complete machine.

- Revise parts quickly based on test results, often within the same week.

- Collaborate with the wider engineering team on whichever priorities matter most at the time.

Requirements

What we're looking for

- A mechanical engineering degree.

- Experience designing actuated mechanisms, such as linear actuators, motors and drives, that move accurately and repeatably.

- Strong first-principles judgment, able to catch errors in numbers or direction and back decisions with hand calculations or finite element analysis.

- A track record of carrying a mechanical system through design, build and test in a quick-paced hardware environment.

- Experience designing steel and aluminum parts for machining, sheet metal and welding.

- Able to work on-site in San Francisco five days a week, and six days during crunch periods.

Bonus points

- Experience with electromechanical mechanisms in robotics, aerospace or automotive settings.

- Experience integrating load cells or force sensors into a mechanism.

- Background building complete assemblies in a small group working within tight resource limits.
