We're supporting an established Pittsburgh-area robotics company seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer to play a key role in the development of its next-generation autonomous robotic platform. This is a hands-on opportunity for an experienced engineer who wants significant ownership and the ability to see their work move from design into real-world production.
Location: Downtown Pittsburgh area
Work Model: Hybrid – minimum 3 days onsite per week
Design and develop mechanical systems and moving assemblies for advanced robotic products.
Take new designs from early concepts through prototyping, testing, refinement, and production.
Apply mechanical analysis and sound engineering principles to ensure designs are reliable and perform as intended.
Work closely with electrical, software, manufacturing, and other engineering teams throughout product development.
Collaborate with suppliers and outside engineering/manufacturing partners to bring designs into production.
Qualifications
Strong background designing complex mechanical or electromechanical products with moving components and mechanisms.
Hands-on experience with 3D CAD; SolidWorks experience is preferred.
Proven experience developing products beyond the design stage through testing, manufacturing, and production.
Experience with motors, gearboxes, bearings, actuators, sensors, or similar mechanical motion systems.
Robotics experience is a plus but not required; backgrounds in industrial automation, material handling, aerospace, transportation, medical devices, heavy equipment, or similar product environments can translate well.
