Senior Mechanical/Mechatronics Engineer - Grocery Pick Hardware

As a Senior Mechanical/Mechatronics Engineer on the Grocery Pick Hardware Team, you will help us create the most advanced robots for our customers. You will work closely with other disciplines (Software, AI, ML, Product, etc.) designing subsystems for complex robotic systems. You will own critical components of new projects in end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) and robotic system design. You will work closely with our Robotics Software and Machine Learning teams to ensure that the designs you create are mechanically sound and empower our advanced AI.

What you’ll do:
  1. Design and build structural and motion assemblies (e.g. End effectors, robot supports, dresspacks).
  2. Validate your designs through bench tests, ALT, FEA and production trials.
  3. Create assembly drawings in SolidWorks and manage the bill of materials through our PLM system.
  4. Develop accurate and concise assembly instructions and SOPs for installation, maintenance, and manufacturing teams.
  5. Work in a cross-functional team developing technologies to be used in production.
  6. Perform design reviews, promote and implement development best practices.
  7. Identify improvements, engineering standards, and procedures and promote best practices to ensure the team produces high-quality products.
  8. Elevate the skill of the team through technical mentorship and foster a culture of mentorship within the team.
What you bring:
  1. 5+ years as a mechanical engineer in a related industry.
  2. Ability to iterate quickly and demonstrate new concepts through rapid prototypes of your designs.
  3. Strong knowledge of mechanical engineering fundamentals and the ability to approach problems from first principles to justify critical decisions, communicate feedback, and help build consensus within the team.
  4. Experience modelling and creating part drawings for sheet metal parts, weldments, precision machined components, castings and injection molded components with knowledge of DFMA principles.
  5. Experience selecting, sizing and designing for:
  • a range of actuator types like BLDCs, steppers, solenoids;
  • a range of transmissions like lead-screws, ball-screws, belts and chains;
  • pneumatic actuators, valving, seals, gaskets, and air preps;
  • a variety of linear and rotary bushings and bearings.
Proficient in the use and interpretation of both cartesian (traditional) and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) in drawings. Expert in designing with SolidWorks or other major packages (3D CAD, 2D drawings) including extensive knowledge of conducting FEA for a wide range of cases and materials. Capable of leading a small group of engineers to ensure project deliverables are completed on time (including FMEAs, design reviews, supplier data packs, etc). Conduct root cause analyses and mechanical forensic investigation. Experience with designing systems that have reached production at scale, considering all relevant stakeholders (e.g., manufacturing, operations, service, etc.). Experience mentoring and guiding junior and intermediate-level engineers and interns, fostering a collaborative and inclusive team culture while promoting best practices. Ability to travel Internationally up to 10% of the time. Bonus Qualifications:
  1. Applicable skills in at least one of the following areas: end effector design, industrial automation, robotic work cells.
  2. Pneumatic system experience (e.g., valving and instrumentation).
  3. Knowledge of safety systems for industrial machinery (ISO 12100, ISO 10218, or similar standard).
  4. Experience with analog electrical equipment (e.g., specifying cables, connectors, panel layouts, NFPA79).
  5. Automated test fixture creation (e.g., PLC programming experience).
  6. Experience with sensor selection, integration, and signal conditioning.
  7. Understanding to program microcontrollers/processors for limited bench-top testing.
  8. Hands-on experience commissioning a system.
  9. Knowledge of thermal calculations and conducting thermal analyses.
