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

Your Profile

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.
