Mechanical Design Engineer - Robotic Hand

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 - our rapidly developed humanoid platform being deployed in real industrial environments - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.

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.

• →

  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.

• →

  Design robotic linkages and mechanisms with a focus on efficient motion and performance optimization.

• →

  Choose materials and manufacturing methods that balance strength, weight, and cost, ensuring feasibility and reliability.

• →

  Lead the prototyping phase, utilizing tools like 3D printing and CNC machining to validate designs.

• →

  Work with electrical engineers and software developers to integrate mechanical components into robotic systems.

• →

  Ensure designs meet safety standards, conducting risk assessments and applying necessary safety features.

• →

  Perform mechanical testing to verify design performance and durability.

• →

  Produce detailed technical documentation, including drawings, specifications, and BOMs, adhering to GD&T principles.

• →

  Work closely with cross-functional teams to achieve project goals.

• Strong background in mechanical design, statics, dynamics, and material science.

• Skilled in CAD tools (SolidWorks), with the ability to apply GD&T (ASME Y14.5) to designs.

• Familiarity with manufacturing methods like CNC machining, 3D printing, and injection molding.

• Hands-on experience building and testing prototypes.

• Understanding of safety standards (e.g., ISO 10218) and risk assessment.

• Strong analytical skills to tackle complex engineering challenges.

• Clear verbal and written communication for effective teamwork.
