Engineering Technicians within the Humanoid AI Robot team work side by side with Engineers to support and sustain the research and development of our prototype robots and sub-systems. You’ll be building/repairing the first iterations of the machines that make the machines, including highly actuated and electronically/computationally dense robots.

You will have a blend of hands-on builds and responsibilities around analysis, testing, and documentation. Projects are open ended and often with limited up front guidance. The successful candidate for this position must have a broad background in Mechatronics, Industrial, and/or Automotive, Precision Medical Device, Maintenance, and Testing. Must be a self-starter and efficiently work independently as well as in team environments.

• Work with Engineers to fabricate, assemble, and integrate mobile robot prototypes, including mechanical assemblies, electrical systems, wire harnesses, etc.
• Develop test plans and test systems, including building of assembly jigs and test/validation systems
• Collaborate with Engineering teams to root cause and resolve mechanical and electrical issues
• Provide detailed written & verbal test status updates to key stakeholders
• Provide daily bot inspections and shift pass down reports to key stakeholders
• Maintain a clean and organized lab, ensuring that it is well-stocked with the tools, components, and materials needed to sustain bot
• Supporting bench-top electrical system builds and testing, including obtaining and tracking
• Support low volume prototype part builds and testing, including development of SOP, training modules, and repair for serviceability

• 3+ years of experience as an Engineering Technician in fields of: Robotics, Automotive Service, precision medical devices, R&D, and Manufacturing
• Collaborate with Engineering teams to root cause and resolve mechanical hardware, electrical, software issues and provide detailed written & verbal test status updates to key stakeholders
• Previous hands-on experience with hand and power tools, high & low voltage systems, wire harnesses assembly and repair, mechanical components, electro-mechanical devices, soldering irons, wire crimping tools, DMM multi-meters, and oscilloscopes
• Able to interpret drawings and 3D CAD, and able to read mechanical & electrical drawing diagram-schematics; harness drawings and create a harness from scratch. Experience in CAD (ex. CATIA, SolidWorks) and/or electrical design (ex. Altium), fabrication /machining, 3D printing, and laser cutting equipment are preferred but not required
• Understanding and creating work instructions SOP for service repair, installation, part rework, various tools, hardware components and test equipment
• Analytical problem solving skills & FA root cause analysis, troubleshooting and detailed lab reporting
• Experience in manufacturing or factory line operations & EOL Technician a plus
• Must be able to use spreadsheet tools (ex. Microsoft Office) and Project Management Software: JIRA. Python knowledge a plus
• Must be able lift 37 lbs., be able to climb ladders and work in 24/7 shifts coverage
