Senior Mechatronics Engineer

InLoop builds warehouse robots that run fully autonomously in customer warehouses today. The fleet is growing quickly, and the demand is huge. We're hiring a senior mechatronics engineer to take our robot from working prototypes to a design we can build a hundred times. You'll work next to our head of hardware on the arms, torso, base and gripper, and own how they get built. This is a hands on role. You design a part in CAD in the morning and fit it on the robot in the afternoon. **What you'll work on first** \- **Arm redesign.** Redesign the arm structure around the motors and gears we use today, so it's stiffer, easier to assemble and ready for volume. \- **Base.** Finish our new welded steel base and make it simple to build in house and quick to install on site. \- **Gripper.** Improve the gripper mechanism for the items our customers actually pack. \- **Assembly line.** Build our in house assembly line with the team so one person can assemble a robot in a day: fixtures, jigs, work instructions and QC checks. \- **Electrical integration.** Route cables, place connectors and design strain relief together with our electrical engineer. **What we're looking for** \- 3 to 5 years designing mechanical and electromechanical systems that went into production: robot arms, mobile robots, automation equipment or automotive \- Strong CAD and design for manufacturing: sheet metal, welded frames, machined and 3D printed parts, tolerances \- You've taken a design from prototype to a repeatable build and written the instructions so someone else can build it \- Hands on with machine tools, 3D printers and assembly on the bench \- Comfortable on the electrical side: wiring, motors, sensors **Nice to have** \- Actuator and gearbox design \- FEA and stiffness analysis \- Sourcing and supplier management in Europe or China \- German \- Driving license **How to apply** Apply here and include photos or files of something you designed and built.

That tells us more than a CV.
