- Drive the development of mechanical assemblies including structural frames, drive systems, electromechanical packaging, and supporting hardware components.
- Collaborate with contract manufacturers, supporting production builds, troubleshooting defects, and resolving quality escapes through RCCA methods.
- Ensure project plans and delivery commitments are met on-time
- Coach, mentor, and lead a diverse group of 5-10 engineers, helping them to grow technically and professionally.
- Promote and instill best practices in mechanical engineering development and production field issue problem solving.
- Help attract and develop top tier talent through recruitment activities and workforce development.
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical/Electrical/Aerospace Engineering or related technical discipline.

- Experience with mobile robots, AGV, AMR, or warehouse automation systems.
- Familiarity with PPAP, FMEA, and quality systems in high-volume manufacturing environments.
- Experience with structural or thermal FEA using ANSYS or SolidWorks Simulation.
- Hands-on experience designing jigs, fixtures, tooling, or manufacturing support equipment.
- Strong understanding of GD&T, tolerance stack-ups, and manufacturing methods such as sheet metal, machining, injection molding, and die casting.
- Exposure to field service troubleshooting, sustaining engineering, or post-launch product support.
- Up to 25% of travel may be required. Employees must have a valid driver’s license and the ability to drive and/or fly to client and other customer locations.
