Responsibilities
· Design and develop mechanical structures and components for autonomous robotic platforms using CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Fusion 360, AutoCAD).
· Perform structural analysis (e.g., FEA), thermal analysis, and material selection for robotic components.
· Analyze robotic kinematics and dynamics to inform mechanical design and ensure system stability and performance, particularly for aerial platforms.
· Design and integrate actuation systems (motors, gearboxes, linkages) and custom end-effectors or payloads.
· Prototype and manufacture components using techniques such as 3D printing, CNC machining, molding, and sheet metal fabrication.
· Oversee the assembly and physical integration of robotic systems.
· Design mounting solutions and ensure proper physical integration of sensors (e.g., IMUs, LiDAR, cameras) and electronic components.
· Conduct validation and performance testing (including environmental and flight tests) focusing on mechanical robustness, reliability, and system dynamics.
· Collaborate closely with electrical, control, and software engineers to ensure seamless integration of mechanical designs.
· Create and maintain thorough technical documentation (CAD models, drawings, assembly instructions, test procedures/reports).
