Mechatronics Engineer: Motion Systems & Control

Leva; Piemonte; On-site; EUR 55,000 - 75,000; Full time

Job summary

Leva is seeking a proactive Mechatronics Engineer to own electromechanical systems from architecture to on-site delivery. You will work across mechanics, electronics and firmware, selecting motors, actuators and sensors, and tuning coordinated motion with embedded teams.

You will create CAD models and test rigs, prototype iteratively, and collaborate with technicians to ensure robust, validated installations.

Qualifications

• Demonstrated ownership of an electromechanical or motion-control system that you helped design, build and test.
• Practical experience selecting and sizing motors, actuators, transmissions and drives, with engineering rationale.
• Hands-on experience with servo tuning or coordinated motion implementation and validation.
• Experience integrating sensors, encoders, I/O, custom electronics and embedded firmware into physical systems.
• CAD proficient for mechanism integration, prototypes and test rigs.
• Knowledge of manufacturing processes and DFM/DFA with tolerances and lead times.
• Hands-on rapid prototyping, assembly, wiring, testing and root-cause analysis.
• Ability to define and review electrical requirements and supplier deliverables, even when electrical design is outsourced.
• Availability for workshop integration in Turin and international travel; professional English for technical collaboration.

Responsibilities

• Translate requirements into buildable electromechanical architectures with clear interfaces across mechanics, electronics and control systems.
• Select and size motors, actuators, gearboxes, transmissions, drives, brakes, encoders and sensors.
• Design, tune and validate single-axis and coordinated motion, including motion profiles and fault handling.
• Collaborate with embedded engineers to define requirements and interfaces for custom electronics and firmware.
• Create mechanical CAD models for mechanisms, mounts, enclosures, sensor integration and test rigs.
• Build and test prototypes using 3D printing, workshop processes and representative hardware.
• Collaborate with technicians during assembly, wiring and testing, turning findings into robust design improvements.
• Define and review electrical requirements and supplier deliverables, including cabinets, schematics and wiring.
