• Support the team with updating CAD, drawings, and other documentation.
• Design and execute procedures to stress test robots for different conditions and use cases.
• Perform Failure Mode and Effects Analysis to predict future failures on the robots.
• Perform root cause analysis after failures occur on the robots.

• Significant experience with CAD (OnShape, SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or similar).
• Significant experience working on electromechanical systems and large assemblies.
• Experience designing with metal, plastics, and composite materials.
• Experience in FEA and linear stress analysis calculations.
• Experience with applying mechanics theory (statics, kinematics, etc.) to inform your designs.
• Experience creating detailed machine drawings, assembly drawings, and BOM packages.
• Experience with designing, executing, and documenting tests.
• Experience designing for reliability, manufacturability, serviceability, and usability.

We encourage the following qualifications:

• Experience with designing highly reliable products that were manufactured at scale
• Experience designing for certifications (ATEX, IECEx, UL, FCC, CE)
• Experience with robotics or remotely operated vehicles
