You will work to develop new robotic systems for the cannabis market. This would require the ability to rapidly design, develop, and test hardware/electronic components.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Program 6DOF arms and other robotics architectures to build a product that serves a market need.
- Initial concept, design, GD&T drawings, assessment of mass, cost, manufacturing feasibility, function, rapid prototyping using 3D printing, etc.
- Develop parametric design concepts and production designs.
- Optimize the concepts and designs with analytical and physical modelling/simulation.
- Interface with suppliers for manufacturing feasibility, validation, and other engineering activities as specified for the assigned commodity.
- Help deliver world-class craftsmanship, fit/finish and support for successful product launch.
- Assemble and install machines to customers across the nation. Travel is approximately 1-5% of your time.
REQUIREMENTS
- Capability to own the designs from cradle to grave and be responsible for their technical success.
- Examples of working on 6DOF or similar cobot arms.
- Previous experience in using python to control robotic systems.
- BS in Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics or similar.
- Possesses technical knowledge and expertise in robotics, automation, or related field.
- Previous experience in electromechanical design either in a team setting or a personal project.
- Experience with leading hardware/software development, prototype design, fabrication and testing.
- Has previously participated in an R&D team from concept to delivery.
- Previous experience using ROS.
IDEAL CANDIDATE SKILLS
- Mechanical and Electrical Engineering B.S. with a Computer Science M.S.
- Experience with robotic systems in either a professional or personal setting.
- Capability to iteratively design using prototyping tools eg. CAD, laser cutter, 3D printing, CNC machines, Eagle PCB.
- Knowledge of relevant manufacturing processes for production and prototype.
- Has previously programmed a full robotics architecture from the ground up.
- Has examples of software work demonstrating a full stack knowledge base.
- Able to work extended hours and weekends as needed.
- Be able to take initiative on other roles the company needs to succeed.
- Has previously participated in an R&D team from concept to delivery.
As you will be working directly with the founders, expect to learn a lot in a short amount of time. This is a "get your hands dirty" technical leadership position. There will be long hours and days where nothing works; but in the end you will be working on multi-million dollar product in a room full of people that appreciate you. Welcome aboard!
