Mechanical Design Engineer, Robotic Actuators

We are looking for a hands-on mechanical or mechatronics engineer to own the architecture of integrated actuators for Dexmate robots. You will translate robot requirements into an actuator design that balances torque, speed, mass, efficiency, backdrivability, thermal capacity and manufacturability. You will make technical trade-offs, build and test hardware, and bring specialists together around a verified design.

• Define actuator requirements from robot loads and duty cycles, including peak and continuous torque, speed, stiffness, life, packaging and thermal limits.
• Own trade studies across motor topology, transmission ratio, bearings, cooling, sensing and drive constraints; use measured performance to resolve competing requirements.
• Set mechanical, electrical and firmware interfaces, including voltage and current limits, sensor placement, allowable temperatures and fault responses.
