Mechanical Engineer/ Technician (m/f/d) Robotics

About The Role

We are looking for a motivated and skilled Hardware / Mechanical Engineer (m/f/d) As part of this team, you will contribute to both supporting existing robotic platforms and developing next-generation prototypes for high-degree-of-freedom (high-DOF) robotic systems. In this role, you will ensure reliable operation of our robotic systems, while also designing and implementing robust mechanisms that meet the demands of cutting-edge applications. Success in this position requires a combination of technical expertise, hands-on problem-solving, and the ability to adapt in a fast-paced, uncertain environment.

Your Responsibilities

• Design and develop complex robotic mechanisms, ensuring high precision, reliability, and manufacturability (from drawing to finished part)
• Create detailed CAD models, technical drawings, and assembly documentation for production
• Prototype mechanical parts using 3D printing and workshop tools
• Support assembly and integration of mechatronic systems, including basic electrical wiring and component installation
• Conduct testing and commissioning of robotic systems and ensure smooth operation
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (electrical, software, manufacturing) to ensure seamless system integration
• Troubleshoot and resolve mechanical issues during development and production phases
• Stay updated with emerging technologies and best practices in robotics and mechanical design
• Work autonomously on open-ended, evolving tasks

Essential Skills

• Proficiency in CAD software (SolidWorks preferred, knowledge of PDM systems is a plus)
• Hands-on experience with mechanical assembly, prototyping, and electrical wiring
• Practical workshop skills: 3D printing, CNC machining, laser cutting, drill press
• Strong knowledge of mechanical design principles (kinematics, dynamics, tolerances, manufacturability)
• Comfortable working independently and in cross-functional teams
• Self-motivated, reliable, and solution-oriented mindset
• Fluent in English; German or Chinese skills are a plus
• Flexibility to travel occasionally for customer installations and support

Beneficial Skills

• Experience in robotics, automation, or system integration
• Knowledge of electronics, sensors, and camera systems (e.g., ZED, Intel RealSense)
• Familiarity with technical standards and compliance in robotics/mechatronics

Qualifications And Requirements

• Degree or technical training in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field
• Strong problem-solving and analytical thinking skills
• Self-driven with a passion for cutting-edge robotics technology
• Detail-oriented with a focus on robust system design
• Adaptable to a dynamic, fast-paced development cycle

What we offer

• A dynamic high-tech company combined with financial soundness and world-class investors.
• Join an interdisciplinary, international team with 60+ different nationalities in a collaborative work environment.
• Lots of development opportunities in the context of our continued growth.
• Challenging tasks and impactful projects alongside experts that enable professional and personal growth.
• Corporate Benefits Program that covers health, mobility, and learning with 100€ net per month.
• Modern office facilities with a rooftop terrace overlooking Munich, free drinks & fruits, and regular company events contribute to a good working environment.
