Mechanical Engineer

Join Agility Robotics, a leading company in the field of robotics. As a Mechanical Engineer, you will be responsible for designing and prototyping mechanical and electro-mechanical parts for the next generation of Digit, a humanoid robot. You will collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, perform engineering analyses, and support root cause investigations. This role requires a minimum of a B.S. or M.S. in Mechanical Engineering, 0-3 years of mechanical design experience, and expertise in CAD software. Benefits include paid parental leave, flexible work schedules, and comprehensive health insurance.

• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to define requirements and develop design concepts for mechanical and electro-mechanical parts/assemblies.
• Own the 3D and 2D design of electromechanical components and subassemblies, including prototyping of parts and subsystems.
• Perform engineering analyses to validate design decisions, including supporting structural and thermal analyses, and present in cross-functional design reviews.
• B.S. or M.S. in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent is a minimum requirement
• 0 - 3 years of mechanical design experience
• Expert CAD user and familiarity with either Solidworks, Siemens NX, Creo or Onshape
• Ability to be on-site at Agility’s design facility as needed (minimum 3 days per week)
• Experience in mechanical analysis including modeling, tolerance stacks, static and dynamic analysis, FEA and thermal analysis
• Knowledge of various types of motors, encoders, sensors, power transmission, and drive-train-related components such as gears, splines, lead screws, linear guides, harmonic drive actuators, etc
• Demonstrable experience in designing and building mechanisms, assemblies and electronics packaging, ideally in robotics
• Ideal candidates will have a portfolio showing their prior work and projects
• Experience prototyping, characterising, testing and optimizing actuators for torque, stiffness, backlash, efficiency and cost
• Creo and Windchill experience
• PLM and PDM experience
• Jira/Confluence experience
• Advanced degree in engineering or science or robotics
• Transmission/actuator design experience
• Robotic design experience
