Mechanical Design Engineer - Droid SMI

Job description

Job responsibilities

• Own subsystems of the droid end-to-end, from architecture, detailed design, prototyping, validation, DFM, tooling, and production ramp.
• Partner directly with our industrial design team to translate ID intent into engineered product - surfacing, split lines, materials, finishes, color, tactile feel.
• Define and negotiate requirements for your subsystems, working with systems engineering, operations, and cross-functional hardware leads to make sure what you build is what the product actually needs.
• Design in CAD (we use Siemens NX) with the fluency to iterate through architectures and designs quickly.
• Use hand calcs, FEA, clean first-principles thinking and prototyping to bound problems, size parts, and down select between options.
• Design the test fixtures, assembly aids, and inspection tooling that your subsystem needs to be built and validated at rate, while partnering closely with our test engineering team on life-test rigs and end-of-line…
• Drive parts, assemblies, and BOMs through release, revision control, and change management with the discipline that a product at scale demands.
• Work closely with our electrical, firmware, thermal, and manufacturing engineers to make sure the mechanical design is tightly-integrated within our system.
