At Raise Robotics, we’re building robots that work where people shouldn’t. Our team has successfully deployed machines into real construction sites and factories. We’re now building our next generation platform to help build some of the largest structures in the world - think buildings, ships, energy generation plants, and more.

We’re looking for team members who enjoy touch technical challenges and want to make an impact. You’ll have the opportunity to travel to customer sites and see our machines working out in the real world.

For this role, we are seeking a Principal Mechatronics Engineer who will design the hardware architecture and mentor other engineers in developing a mobile manipulator for construction applications.

  • At least 5 years of experience in taking mechatronics systems from idea to production.
  • Previous experience designing mechatronics systems for use in outdoor environments.
  • Familiarity in designing enclosures for ingress protection.
  • Strong familiarity working with power distribution systems and sensor integration. Plus for experience programming PLCs.

  • Hands on experience with fabricating and assembling prototypes
  • Experience creating and managing detailed BOMs.

What you’ll do:

  • Oversee the design, procurement, fabrication, assembly, testing and maintenance of a modular mobile manipulator platform.
  • Lead hardware engineering efforts and manage/mentor a team of mechanical and electrical engineers.
  • Manage vendor relationships and order components for building machines.
  • Collaborate with software engineers and construction field personnel to align on design requirements and make tradeoffs between hardware and software.
