Mechanical design engineer Offres d'emploi - Burnaby, BC

About the job

At Humanoid we strive to create the world's leading, commercially scalable, safe, and advanced humanoid robots that seamlessly integrate into daily life and amplify human capacity.

In a world where artificial intelligence opens up new horizons, our faith in its potential unveils a new outlook where, together, humans and machines build a new future filled with knowledge, inspiration, and incredible discoveries.

The development of a functional humanoid robot underpins an era of abundance and well-being where poverty will disappear, and people will be able to choose what they want to do. We believe that providing a universal basic income will eventually be a true evolution of our civilization.

As the demands on our built environment rise, labour shortages loom. With the world’s workforce increasingly moving away from undesirable tasks, the manufacturing, construction, and logistics industries critical to our daily lives are left exposed. By deploying our general-purpose humanoid robots in environments deemed hazardous or monotonous, we envision a future where human well-being is safeguarded while closing the gaps in critical global labour needs.

We are seeking a Mechanical Engineer to design and develop advanced humanoid robots. The ideal candidate will have expertise in mechanical design, system integration, and GD&T based on ASME Y14.5, along with experience in optimizing robotic systems for performance and manufacturability.

Key Responsibilities :

• Mechanical Design : Develop components for humanoid robots (e.g., frames, actuators, joints) using CAD software, applying GD&T standards (ASME Y14.5) to ensure precision and manufacturability.
• Motion Engineering : Design robotic linkages and mechanisms with a focus on efficient motion and performance optimization.
• Material & Process Selection : Choose materials and manufacturing methods that balance strength, weight, and cost, ensuring feasibility and reliability.
• Prototype Development : Lead the prototyping phase, utilizing tools like 3D printing and CNC machining to validate designs.
• System Integration : Work with electrical engineers and software developers to integrate mechanical components into robotic systems.
• Safety Compliance : Ensure designs meet safety standards, conducting risk assessments and applying necessary safety features.
• Testing & Validation : Perform mechanical testing to verify design performance and durability.
• Documentation : Produce detailed technical documentation, including drawings, specifications, and BOMs, adhering to GD&T principles.
• Collaboration : Work closely with cross-functional teams to achieve project goals.
