Were looking for a mid-to-senior Robotics Application Engineer to translate real-world customer use cases into robust intelligent robot deployments. You will design, prototype, and refine grippers, end-of-arm tooling, work stations, and integration hardware - and develop efficient strategies for robot learning and data collection - working at the intersection of robotics, AI, hardware, and deployment operations.
What Youll Do- Execute customer projects end-to-end - from scoping and solution design through onsite delivery, serving as the primary technical point of contact
- Design mechanical solutions including grippers, EOAT, fixtures, and work-cells; rapidly prototype and validate concepts before field deployment
- Drive AI model post-training and deployment on robot hardware, developing training strategies and partnering with robot pilots and data ops to build robust policies
- Become a product expert - develop deep knowledge of the full stack and internal workflows to accelerate customer onboarding and inform the roadmap
- Continuously improve by identifying failure patterns, building reusable design standards, and contributing to shared documentation
What Were Looking For- Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, or a related field
- 3-6 years of experience in mechanical design for robotics, automation, manufacturing, or industrial systems
- Strong CAD proficiency (SolidWorks, OnShape, or equivalent)
- Experience designing grippers, tooling, fixtures, or electromechanical assemblies
- Hands-on prototyping experience (3D printing, machining, fabrication & assembly)
- Experience debugging robotic systems
- Familiarity with AI/ML concepts as applied to robotics (e.g., machine vision, imitation learning, reinforcement learning, or policy training)
- Ability to collaborate cross-functionally in a fast-paced environment
Nice to Have (But Not Required)- Experience working with robotic arms or humanoid systems
- Hands-on experience with robot policy training, fine-tuning, or deployment
- Experience integrating conveyors, AMRs, actuators, sensors, and other electromechanical devices
- Experience supporting real-world deployments or field installations - scoping timelines, managing deliverables, and coordinating across teams
- Experience coordinating external contractors or vendors for fabrication or integration
Why This Role- Own the full customer journey - from first scoping call to live robot deployment - with direct visibility into how your solutions perform in the real world
- Work at the intersection of hardware design and AI, shaping how our robots learn and operate in production customer environments
- High ownership in a small team where your design decisions and deployment strategies directly influence the roadmap and scale of what we build next
