• Run design for manufacturing (DFM) and design for assembly (DFA) reviews with suppliers and the shop floor
• Create drawings, GD&T, BOMs, and ECOs in our PLM system
• Specify motors, sensors, bearings, fasteners, and sealing for outdoor, vibration-heavy duty cycles
• Run tolerance stack-ups, structural checks, and FEA to validate designs
• Plan and run validation and acceptance tests, and turn results into design changes
• Design jigs and fixtures for production
• Work with software and electrical engineers on interfaces, packaging, and cable routing
• Support field issues and Root-Cause Failure Analysis from deployed sites

Must Have

• Bachelor's in mechanical engineering, mechatronics, or robotics (or equivalent)
