The opportunity
Our Robotics team is focused on unlocking general-purpose robotics and advancing toward AGI-level intelligence in dynamic, real-world environments. Working across the full model and systems stack, we integrate cutting-edge hardware and software to explore a broad range of robotic form factors.
What you'll do
Drive functional requirements for various end effector sub-systems, sensing: technologies, integration of various peripherals into one system to drive data collection for model development, related milestones, and validation criteria.
Collaborate with research teams, align system-level integration requirements,: deliverables, calibration needs, configurations to test, etc.
Work closely with the operations team in getting the data collection hardware: rolled out, monitor the field failures as those pop-up and make sure the right stakeholders are involved in resolution.
Coordinate the design and integration of tactile sensing materials,: mechanical structures, PCBAs, interconnects, harnesses, and signal paths into robotic systems.
Establish effective mechanisms for design reviews, drawing and documentation: readiness, change control, design releases, decision tracking, characterization and validation readiness, and production readiness.
Partner with manufacturing, test, and supply chain on prototype builds,: assembly constraints, DFM/DFA, end-of-line test requirements, equipment lead times, handoffs, and the transition to manufacturable assemblies.
What they're looking for
- Drive tradeoff decisions with the right stakeholders across material: selection, mechanical performance, functionality, reliability, scaling, cost, quality, schedule, and lead time for both robot and data collection hardware by collaborating cross-functionally and quantifying impact to the program.
- Understand material properties, compliance, bonding, packaging, tolerances,: and integration constraints that affect tactile sensor performance in robotic systems.
- Have experience integrating PCBAs, interconnects, small form factor: connectors, analog signals, and EMI-sensitive hardware into compact mechanical assemblies.
- Enjoy occasional hands-on work as well planning for building, testing, and: debugging physical systems, including characterization and validation setups, calibration, durability, signal quality, and failure modes.
