Full Job Description
Position Overview:
The ideal candidate is an expert in complex mechatronic system design contributing to the delivery of multidisciplinary industrial robotic products. The position includes a need to design, fabricate, assemble, document, and test mechatronic systems that include multi-axis actuation. In addition, the ideal candidate is an expert in system dynamics, modeling and vibrations analysis.
The candidate will work in a small team of engineers building a novel robotics and automation solution. As we are a small startup the role will have a large amount of autonomy and the candidate must be comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where requirements may shift and decisions need to be made with limited information.
