Summary:

At Meta, we’re building the future of human connection and the technology that enables it. This means continuously inventing and developing technologies for the next generation of experiences. To continue our efforts in the path to AGI, and as we move closer to a future with intelligent robots and advanced AI models, we're hiring talent across a broad range of disciplines from robotics hardware to system software, machine perception, and artificial intelligence. These crucial projects and initiatives taken on by this team have never been done before, so you have a rare opportunity to help us create new ways people connect around the world. The Meta Robotics Hardware team is seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer. This role is pivotal in tackling novel mechanical design problems we face including designing and developing complex robotics that balance ergonomics, performance, reliability, and usability while maintaining the highest safety and quality standards. This role will be part of a team responsible for initial concept development, analytical modeling, prototype design, construction, and testing. Candidates should be experienced working in a high ambiguity, deadline-focused environment full system requirements are seldom known. This team is dedicated to building hardware that enables learning through data collection and testing.

Required Skills:

Mechanical Design Engineer: Robotics Hardware Engineering Responsibilities:

1. Design and Development: Mechanical design and analysis problems for prototype robotics structures, mechanisms, power transmissions, and systems integration while balancing ergonomics, performance, reliability, weight, and maintainability

2. Supporting prototype fabrication and builds: Working with internal/external partners to support part fabrication and robot builds, fixtures and assembly tooling design, assembly procedures

3. Performance testing and failure analysis: Build subsystem test fixtures, design tests, create test plans, perform tests, measure and analyze data, and refine design assumptions

4. Collaboration: Work closely with a cross-functional team of engineers (EE, SW, Firmware) to deliver complete technical solutions

5. Sustaining engineering: Troubleshooting root-cause of mechanical failures, implementing improved designs, testing effectiveness of change

Minimum Qualifications:

Minimum Qualifications:

6. 5+ years experience in Mechanical Design Engineering and with experience in Machine Design
