Robotic Arm / Gripper Hardware Engineer

Design, prototype, integrate, and debug robotic arms and end-effectors.

What You Will Do

Structural Design and Prototyping

Responsible for the mechanical structural design, rapid prototyping, assembly, and debugging of basic robotic arms and end-effectors such as grippers.

Customized Development and Integration

Independently complete the selection and structural design of customized grippers according to project requirements, while reserving appropriate mounting and wiring interfaces for future hardware such as vision and tactile sensors.

Open-Source Structure Adaptation and Optimization

Replicate, evaluate, and optimize mainstream open-source robotic arm and gripper hardware projects, such as LeRobot, and structurally adapt them to the team’s existing robot platforms.

Manufacturing and Supply Chain Follow-Up

Proficiently use and follow up on manufacturing processes such as 3D printing, CNC machining, and laser cutting, ensuring machining quality of components and progress of assembly delivery.

Mechatronic Joint Debugging

Work with algorithm and control engineers to participate in low-level motor selection, testing, and practical validation of mechanical transmission systems.

What We Expect

Academic Background

Major in mechanical engineering, automation, mechatronics, or related fields. Bachelor’s degree or above.

Software Tools

Proficient in mainstream 3D modeling and engineering drawing software, such as SolidWorks and Onshape, with a solid foundation in mechanical design.

Mechatronic Foundation

Basic understanding of motor control, such as stepper motors and servo motors, as well as common transmission mechanisms. Practical hardware selection experience is required/preferred.

Overall Qualities

Strong hands-on ability, able to independently troubleshoot and solve problems during hardware assembly and debugging.
