Mechanical Engineer
Edgerun, Palo Alto, California
The role
As a Mechanical Engineer, you will be responsible for the physical hardware of the world's most advanced powered exoskeleton, worn by soldiers in active combat. You will work with a talented team of accomplished engineers to take parts from concept through prototype, field test, and production, including structure, joints, actuator integration, modularity, and field serviceability. You should thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment where you adapt quickly and love to solve hard problems.
You will see your own hardware worn by an operator within weeks of joining.
What you will do
- Take parts from concept to working hardware in house, and carry them through to volume production
- Own structure, joints, actuator integration, and the interfaces that mount to the belts and plate carriers soldiers already wear
- Design for 30 Nm through a human hip, a fit range from the 5th to the 95th percentile, and survival in dust, water, and cold
