EngineeringMechatronics Engineer

As a Junior Mechatronics engineer, you will be participating in the research, development and deployment of AI enabled robot cells for material handling and logistics applications. You will collaborate with Operations, Software, and Machine Learning teams to research, design, integrate, test and deploy new robotic hardware including: robot cell designs, end effectors, cameras, lighting, HW control devices (PLCs, I/O couplers, sensors, etc), pneumatics, actuators, and custom mechanisms.

We value candidates who are passionate about what they build, feel a strong sense of ownership over their work, are driven to succeed and appreciate a harmonious work environment.

Design, prototype, and test ML-enabled robotic automation systems

Develop system-level designs for cell controls using off-the-shelf hardware (I/O couplers, PLCs, sensors)

Support pneumatic and electrical design, with guidance from senior engineers

Work with domestic and offshore integration partners on the build and deployment of robotic cells

Contribute to feasibility and cost analyses for new mechatronic systems

Draft and maintain technical specifications

Test and characterize electromechanical and optical systems

Troubleshoot electrical and mechanical issues to keep equipment ready for demos and development

1+ years of machine design or mechatronics experience in industry

Strong SolidWorks skills, including building and maintaining multi-level assemblies and including modeling and creation of detailed drawings

Understanding of design for manufacturing and assembly (DFM/DFA) principles

Experience designing for 3D printing, sheet metal, CNC machining, and welding

Experience specifying and integrating off-the-shelf controls hardware

Comfort around machine tools, and the ability to fabricate prototypes in-house

Experience working with outside partners or vendors on design, fabrication, assembly, or test

Clear written and verbal communication, and a collaborative working style

Willingness to learn and thrive in a fast-paced, small-team environment

Ability to work on-site 4-5 days per week

Ability to travel 20-30% of the time, including for installation and deployment of new projects

Legal authorization to work in the U.S. is required, OSARO will not provide H1B visa

Experience managing multiple projects and priorities

Scripting skills (Python or similar)

Familiarity with motors, encoders, linear actuators, pneumatics, and sensors

Detailed pneumatic or electrical design experience

PLC programming or industrial controls experience

Programming articulated industrial robots (Fanuc, KUKA, Yaskawa, etc.)

Robot simulation experience (ROBOGUIDE or similar)

End-of-arm tool design

2D/3D machine vision experience (Cognex, Datalogic, Keyence, Sick, or custom)

OSARO is a San Francisco-based startup company building machine learning software for industrial automation, to power robots in logistics and material handling centers. Our vision is to develop a solution that enables industrial robots to perform diverse tasks in a wide range of environments. We are excited and driven to see the results of our efforts operating in the fast-growing field of autonomous material handling. We implement state-of-the-art techniques but constantly strive to build the simplest possible solution. OSARO is technique agnostic and always focused on the goal. We regularly review academic literature for novel strategies while steering clear of the hype. We’re focused on delighting our customers with systems that work like magic.

Our markets are global. That’s why OSARO employs a diverse team of experts in various fields from more than 15 countries, attracting talent from both innovative companies and the research labs of top-ranked engineering universities. We are naturally curious, love healthy debate, and respect varying points of view. At OSARO, we strive to be champions for equality. We believe we can serve as a model for diversity in the tech industry by emphasizing policies of nondiscrimination and inclusion at every step.
