Direction
Dual-arm robot mechanical design, prototyping & system integration
About the Role
We're looking for a mechanical engineer to join our team in designing, developing, and integrating a dual-arm robot system. You'll be deeply involved from mechanism design through prototype build to full system commissioning. We want someone who not only designs but also gets hands-on with assembly, debugging, and iteration.
Responsibilities
- Design and develop the dual-arm robot, end effectors, and related mechanisms — focusing on structural rigidity, assembly precision, spatial constraints, and serviceability.
- 3D modeling, engineering drawings, and assembly design; push prototypes forward via 3D printing, CNC, and laser cutting for rapid iteration.
- Assemble, debug, and test mechanical systems; diagnose and solve interference, precision, and vibration issues.
- Select and integrate key components (motors, reducers, encoders, rails, ball screws); continuously optimize overall performance and dynamic response.
- Work closely with control and software teams to commission the full system — enabling stable, precise operations in constrained spaces.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree or above in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Automation, Mechatronics, or related fields.
- Strong mechanical design fundamentals and hands-on ability — experience designing, assembling, and debugging complex mechatronic systems or robotic arms.
- Proficient with at least one mainstream CAD tool; able to independently drive the full workflow from structural design to prototype.
- Understanding of robot mechanisms and transmission systems; experience with arm design/assembly/debugging preferred.
Nice to Have
- Experience with high-precision mechanical systems, lab automation equipment, or constrained-space devices.
- Familiar with harmonic reducers, ball screws, linear guides, and other precision transmission components.
- Project experience with dual-arm robots, collaborative arms, or end effectors.
