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.

About The Role

As a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer on the Core Platform team, you’ll play a key part in turning ambitious, open-ended ideas into high-performing, real-world robotics solutions. Your work will span hands-on design, collaborative prototyping, and technical validation, driving innovation in mechanisms, and structures. You’ll develop detailed CAD models and documentation, ensure manufacturability and safety, and work closely with cross-disciplinary teams and vendors—all while adapting to rapidly evolving project needs. This is an opportunity for creative engineers who thrive on solving complex problems and shaping the future of robotic design.

What You’ll Do

Interpret Open-Ended Design Requirements: Help transform broad project requirements into detailed, pragmatic design specifications for new systems and components.
Collaborate Across Disciplines: Work with engineers from various disciplines to brainstorm, design, and develop prototype robots that meet challenging performance targets.
Innovate with Mechanisms and Structures: Design and refine innovative mechanisms, interfaces, and structures that elevate robot performance, from energy-absorbing crash protection to ergonomic robot coverings.
CAD Design & Documentation: Create and manage CAD models, engineering drawings, assembly documentation, and test plans for parts and assemblies.
Analysis and Validation: Perform necessary analyses on new designs, validate them through bench tests, and ensure that they meet all performance, safety, and manufacturability standards.
Troubleshoot and Implement Solutions: Identify and resolve design issues by determining root causes and implementing effective corrective and preventative measures.
Vendor Management: Collaborate with external vendors for components and assemblies that require outsourcing, ensuring that third-party designs meet Humanoid’s stringent requirements.
Adapt to Changing Needs: Stay flexible and responsive to changing project requirements while maintaining a team-first, collaborative mindset.
