Mechanical Engineer, Agility Robotics

• 1-2 years of mechanical design experience
• B.S. or M.S. in Mechanical Engineering (or equivalent, minimum requirement)
• Demonstrated experience in mechanism design, electronics packaging,sensors
• Knowledge of various types of motors, encoders, power transmission, and drive-train-related components such as gears, lead screws, linear guides, harmonic drive actuators, etc
• Proven experience designing and building mechanisms and assemblies, preferably in robotics
• Demonstrated experience in mechanical analysis including modeling tolerance stacks, static and dynamic analysis, FEA and thermal analysis
• Ability to be on-site at Agility’s design facility as needed (minimum 2 days per week and as needed to support design activities, reviews, prototype testing, etc.)

Desirable

• Our mechanical engineering team is agile and has grown rapidly, and we are looking for a talented engineer to join us in Fremont, CA
• We are responsible for delivering advanced and reliable designs that meet a complex set of requirements to our customers, including software developers, applications engineers, manufacturing engineers and ultimately to fleet deployment managers
• We work as a group to develop new technologies, engineer new products, and refine/maintain existing designs
• The team is composed of engineers from many backgrounds and levels of experience
• We are designing the next generation of Digit Humanoid Robot for commercial scale
• Highly reliable and robust designs are critical to successful deployment of our robots in large quantities
• Digit works in demanding environments, performing highly repetitive and heavily loaded tasks
• The Senior Mechanical Engineer will work closely with other mechanical engineers and cross functional teams to develop the next generation Digit
• This role will own multiple mechanical and electro-mechanical parts/assemblies and will be responsible for the design, prototyping, and DFx for those parts
• Own the 3D and 2D design of electromechanical components and subassemblies, including prototyping of parts and subsystems
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams (electrical, industrial design, software, test, and manufacturing) to define requirements and develop design concepts
• Perform engineering analyses to validate design decisions, including supporting structural and thermal analyses
• Present and participate in cross-functional design reviews of parts and subsystems
• Support root cause investigations and implement improvements to enhance Digit robustness
• Contribute to the development and documentation of mechanical engineering processes
• Track progress and document design work using Jira and Confluence
• Deliver quality results within established schedules, budgets, and priorities
• Create and maintain comprehensive design documentation
• Mentor and support the development of junior engineers
