Senior Engineer – Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR)

Magna International; Lowell (MA); In loco; USD 86.000 - 159.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Magna New Mobility in Lowell, MA seeks a Senior Engineer with robotics system integration to lead design, deployment, and support of advanced AMR robotics. You will design mechanical assemblies, perform analyses, and validate through prototyping, collaborating with Systems Engineering and across functions to meet safety standards.

With 7+ years in mechanical design, you will translate system requirements into hardware needs, and apply FEA, GD&T, and SolidWorks to deliver robust, safety-driven

Competenze

• 7+ years of professional experience in mechanical design.
• Strong experience with CAD and GD&T.
• Experience designing compliant/safety-critical mechanical systems for robotics/AMR environments.
• Hands-on ability to translate system requirements into hardware requirements.
• Experience with FEA/structural analysis and core mechanics (stress/deflection/fatigue).
• Familiarity with AMR-related safety standards and safety-by-design practices.
• Experience integrating robotic systems in a factory automation environment.
• Proficiency in solid works (Cad tool) is a plus.

Mansioni

• Design and develop mechanical assemblies for AMR infrastructure and safety-critical interfaces.
• Create and iterate CAD models, drawings, and BOMs with strong GD&T and tolerance strategy.
• Perform engineering analysis (structural/deflection, fatigue/durability, stiffness vs. compliance).
• Support prototyping and validation through test planning, tolerance verification, and failure analysis.
• Collaborate with Systems Engineering and cross-functional teams (Electrical, Controls, Software, Manufacturing, Quality).
• Maintain requirements traceability and design documentation for verification/validation.
• Ensure designs meet AMR safety standards and internal compliance requirements.
