Lead development of learning-based dexterous manipulation software, bridging research and production. Define architecture, simulation-to-real strategies, and hardware requirements. Deliver reliable C++/Python systems, integrate state-of-the-art control and vision policies, mentor engineers, and drive fleet deployment of multi-fingered hand control.

The Senior Mechanical Engineer will simulate and analyze the structural integrity and performance of the Apollo humanoid robot, focusing on mass optimization and safety criteria through predictive engineering and advanced simulations.

Design and implement high-performance compute and sensory architecture for Apollo robot, including custom PCB design and multiple sensing integration, ensuring safety and reliability for robotics applications.

Design end-to-end operational workflows and user experiences for humanoid robot deployment, onboarding, servicing, maintenance, training, and daily operation. Collaborate with Product, Industrial Design, UX Research, and Engineering to map journeys, create prototypes, storyboards, and workflow artifacts, and influence trust, communication clarity, and robot legibility. Translate ambiguous technical constraints into actionable experience concepts and support evaluative and generative research. Role includes onsite operational contexts and up to 10% travel to customer sites.

Lead and build the company's tax function, manage federal and state income tax compliance, oversee indirect tax processes, prepare ASC 740 tax accounting and provisions, coordinate with external advisors and auditors, support tax planning and R&D credit data gathering, and implement tax controls and process improvements.

Lead architecture and delivery of next-generation compute for a humanoid robot: define requirements, design high-speed PCBs and SoM integrations, ensure functional safety, perform SI/PI and power analysis, benchmark performance and thermals, develop validation/DVT/PVT test plans, and mentor engineering teams through prototyping to production.

Lead development and deployment of high-performance wheeled motion control systems: design and tune whole-body controllers and state estimators, implement low-latency hardware interfaces, ensure safety and certification compliance, integrate with perception and planning, perform field testing and validation, and produce production-grade real-time C++ code and documentation.

The Staff Mechanical Engineer will design a robotic hand, leading the architecture and ensuring robust, dexterous manipulation while collaborating across teams. Responsibilities include structural design, prototyping, analysis, and production readiness.

Lead continuous improvement for the Apollo humanoid electrical systems: drive PCBA design for manufacturability and test, root-cause hardware debugging, define EMI/EMC and reliability testing, manage PLM/processes and BOMs, collaborate with cross-functional teams, mentor junior engineers, and support manufacturing and field deployments.

Bring highly articulated robotic hands from CAD to working prototypes. Perform hardware bring-up, diagnostics, calibration, component and assembly testing, and HIL testbed development. Analyze and report test data, debug electro-mechanical issues, and coordinate across mechanical, electrical, and autonomy teams to achieve reliable, human-level dexterity.

Lead system-level architecture, requirements, and V&V for Apollo's perception suite. Translate autonomy capabilities into verifiable requirements, run trade studies, define ICDs, manage system budgets, and ensure functional safety compliance while mentoring teams and aligning autonomy and hardware engineering.

Lead and grow a Production Engineering team to integrate, deploy, commission, and maintain humanoid robots. Own last-mile integration, on-site deployments, fleet rollout and observability, provisioning/configuration, and cross-functional handoffs while establishing repeatable processes, deployment playbooks, and on-call/reliability standards.

Lead a team designing Apollo's data 'nervous system': internal networks, RF/wireless integration, wire harnesses/flex-PCBs, EMI/EMC and signal integrity. Manage engineers, set architecture and grounding strategies, and collaborate cross-functionally to ensure robust connectivity in an articulating humanoid robot.

The Senior Mechanical Engineer will design and develop Apollo humanoid robots through full product lifecycle, solve engineering problems, and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Design, optimize, and scale platform software for humanoid robots. Integrate hardware and software, profile resource usage, port frameworks to new hardware, benchmark performance, and promote engineering best practices.

The Staff Mechanical Engineer will lead design efforts for the Apollo robot, mentor junior engineers, and ensure production readiness through collaboration across departments.

Lead architecture and systems design for a Robot-as-a-Service edge/cloud platform. Define interfaces, constraints, and contracts between robots, platform, and customer integrations. Drive cross-functional decisions, translate product intent to engineering scope, and ensure reliability across data pipelines, APIs, and security concerns.

Lead development and execution of verification & validation procedures for Apptronik robots. Develop test scripts, document results, drive corrective actions, validate performance and reliability, ensure regulatory compliance, build test automation, and coordinate with third-party labs for safety and certification.

Lead development and deployment of state-of-the-art RL algorithms for locomotion and manipulation on humanoid robots. Prototype in simulation, transfer and fine-tune on hardware, optimize distributed training pipelines, mentor junior engineers, and collaborate with hardware teams to analyze results and improve sim-to-real performance.
