Senior Mechanical Engineer – Mobile Robotics (human)

We are currently expanding our MIPA team and are looking for experienced Mechanical Engineers, including at least one senior-level professional. In addition, we seek an experienced Design Engineer to take ownership of engineering data, BOM management, and engineering standards.

• Coordinate design and development projects for mobile robotic systems

• Design and develop drivetrain systems for mobile robotics platforms (motors, gearboxes, kinematics, dynamics)

• Perform stability calculations and structural/mechanical analyses

• Ensure production-ready design (Design for Manufacturing – DFM), considering manufacturing processes and cost targets

• Create and maintain complete technical documentation and bills of materials (BOMs)

• Structure, prioritize, and deliver development tasks on time within a cross-functional team

• Collaborate closely with manufacturing, electronics, and software engineering teams

What we can look forward to

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field, ideally with a focus on robotics

• Minimum of 10 years of relevant experience in mechanical design, including several years in (mobile) robotics

• Strong expertise in drivetrain design: motors, gearboxes, kinematics, and dynamics

• Solid experience with stability and strength calculations

• Proficiency in SolidWorks (experience with PDM is a plus)

• Familiarity with DFM/DFA methodologies and production-oriented design practices

• Experience in a leadership role or with project responsibility is advantageous

• CAD Tools: SolidWorks / SolidWorks PDM (preferred), Creo / Windchill
