Gearbox Design Engineer (Human)

Neura Robotics; Gemeindeverwaltungsverband Metzingen, Riederich; Vor Ort; EUR 70.000 - 90.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Neura Robotics seeks a skilled Mechanical Engineer to develop high-precision, low-backlash gearboxes for robotic drives, driving concepts to manufacturing-ready drawings and series maturity.

You will size and design gearboxes (strain wave, cycloidal, planetary), set tolerances, materials, lubrication, and bearing concepts, and coordinate with suppliers and manufacturing to ensure robust, scalable solutions.

Qualifikationen

• Degree in mechanical engineering with a focus on drive technology/design.

Aufgaben

• Sizing and designing precision gearboxes (e.g., strain wave, cycloidal, planetary gearboxes).
• Defining tolerances, materials, lubrication, and bearing concepts.
• Collaborating with gearbox/bearing simulation on service-life and stiffness sizing.
• Building, testing, and optimizing gearbox prototypes.
• Technical coordination with gearbox suppliers and manufacturing.

Jobbeschreibung

This is where Artificial Intelligence comes to life

The Mechanical Development team designs the drives, structural parts, and peripherals of our robots. From first concept to manufacturing-ready drawing, this is where lightweight, precise, and series-ready components come to life.

Your mission & challenges

You develop high-precision, low-backlash gearboxes for robotic drives and bring them to series maturity together with suppliers and simulation.

• Sizing and designing precision gearboxes (e.g., strain wave, cycloidal, planetary gearboxes)

• Defining tolerances, materials, lubrication, and bearing concepts

• Collaborating with gearbox/bearing simulation on service-life and stiffness sizing

• Building, testing, and optimizing gearbox prototypes

• Technical coordination with gearbox suppliers and manufacturing

What we're looking for

• Degree in mechanical engineering with a focus on drive technology/design

• Experience in gearbox development, ideally precision or robotics gearboxes

• Knowledge of gear design, tolerance management, and tribology

• Confident use of 3D CAD and sizing tools (e.g., KISSsoft)

• Analytical thinking and enthusiasm for demanding precision mechanics
