Responsibilities include integrating actuators, sensors, controls, and software; troubleshooting mechanical, electrical, and software interfaces; creating SolidWorks designs, drawings, and build instructions; conducting system validation; resolving supplier and field issues; and incorporating operator feedback into design improvements.

Hands-on mechatronics engineer owning hardware-software integration for an autonomous robot. Responsibilities include sensor/actuator driver development in ROS2, debugging firmware and real-time protocols, CAD design and GD&T drawings, PCB/power wiring support, test automation and HIL validation, and field reliability/stress testing for construction environments.

The Senior Mechatronics Engineer will develop the mechatronic systems for manufacturing prosthetics, focusing on system architecture, rapid prototyping, and integration with various engineering teams.

Design, build, integrate, test, and maintain custom mechatronic systems for precision optics manufacturing. Responsibilities include mechanical mechanisms, motion systems, robotics, automation, CAD, BOMs, vendor coordination, electrical and software integration, controls development, troubleshooting, validation, and continuous improvement. The engineer collaborates across manufacturing, quality, supply chain, product development, and engineering teams while supporting equipment performance, product quality, yield, and throughput.

The Senior Mechatronics Engineer will design and develop automated test systems, collaborate across teams to meet engineering needs, and lead projects from start to finish, ensuring clear communication and documentation throughout the process.

The Mechatronics Engineer will design, prototype, and build semiconductor fabrication equipment, integrating mechanical and electrical systems, and rapidly testing prototypes.

Design, prototype, and validate electromechanical and robotic hardware for autonomous mining vehicles, including drive-by-wire actuation, motion and powertrain systems, manipulators, and end-effectors. Produce CAD, BOMs, select components, lead bench and field testing, and collaborate with controls and autonomy teams to integrate hardware, sensing, and compute for fully autonomous operation.

Design and integrate electrical and firmware systems for heavy mobile robots: motor control, power distribution, sensing (encoders, IMU, RTK-GNSS), embedded real-time control (CAN/EtherCAT), safety interlocks, bench and field bring-up, and ruggedization for harsh environments. Support prototype-to-fleet transition through harness DFM, supplier coordination, and field debugging.

Design and develop mechanical systems for autonomous vehicles, collaborate with software teams, conduct testing, and troubleshoot issues.

The role involves designing test plans, maintaining test infrastructure, analyzing performance data, and collaborating cross-functionally in UAV test engineering.

Lead design, development, testing and validation of the wearable product powertrain: motor selection and control, battery management, actuator characterization, thermal modeling, firmware for motor controllers, and production-grade testing protocols. Troubleshoot system-level issues, direct contributors for key subsystems, perform on-body testing, and productize actuation systems for a broader platform.

Develop and integrate firmware, software, and electrical systems for a metal 3D printer. Lead implementation and verification of firmware/PLC-controlled features, motion control, sensor and actuator integration, rapid prototyping, and production code contributions (C/C++, Python). Manage PCB design and serial/analog interfaces, support agency certification, and collaborate across mechanical, electrical, materials, and software teams to deliver product to market.

Lead end-to-end design, prototyping, validation, automation, manufacturing, and field deployment of a novel mechatronic sensing and imaging system. Coordinate cross-functional teams, integrate data streams with analytics, manage vendors/contractors, and develop hardware development processes to support remote exploration projects.

Design, test, and optimize electromechanical systems and motor control firmware. Specify and tune BLDC motors, harmonic drives, and gearboxes. Implement FOC firmware on microcontrollers and integrate industrial communications (EtherCAT, CAN). Collaborate with mechanical engineers on joint design and thermal management to improve efficiency and torque density.

Design and verify mechanical test hardware from concept through 3D models and shop drawings. Collaborate with test, software, and hardware teams to implement and improve test stations, ensure thermal and environmental performance, produce full documentation and BOMs. Hybrid on-site work as project needs require.
