Top Engineering Jobs in Austin, TX

Build, integrate, and test prototype mechanical assemblies from drawings and CAD; troubleshoot failures; collect and document test data; fabricate and rework parts using hand and power tools; collaborate with engineers to improve assembly, reliability, and testability while maintaining lab/shop safety and records.

Design, optimize, and validate manufacturing processes for robotic systems. Use CAD/CAM, simulation, and statistical tools to improve cycle time and yield. Lead root cause analysis, equipment setup/validation, FMEA and Gauge R&R studies, track KPIs (OEE, throughput, scrap), and integrate supplier processes while applying lean and Six Sigma methods.

Design and document wire harnesses and cable assemblies, perform system-level electrical integration for sensors, compute, power and actuators, support prototype bring-up and troubleshooting, collaborate with mechanical and manufacturing teams, and test/validate harnesses for high-reliability defense applications.

Execute hands-on testing of robotic systems and software to validate control algorithms, perception pipelines, and regressions. Operate robots per protocols, run manual and automated tests, create bug reports, analyze results with scripts/visualizations, track performance metrics, and troubleshoot hardware-software interfaces to isolate root causes.

Develop and maintain QMS, perform dimensional and functional inspections using CMMs and precision tools, design inspection fixtures, verify GD&T conformance, document non-conformances, run root-cause analysis, and maintain inspection records and calibration.

Develop and maintain Linux kernel drivers and embedded Linux configurations for NVIDIA Jetson platforms. Integrate and optimize drivers for PCIe, FPGA, Ethernet, USB, and MIPI cameras; debug low-level system issues; collaborate with hardware and computer vision teams; and document driver implementations and hardware interfaces.

Design and develop schematics and PCBs, perform electrical simulations and testing (signal integrity, thermal, EMC), develop real-time embedded software in C++/Python, integrate electromechanical systems, validate designs to military standards, and optimize performance and power for autonomous turret robotics systems.

Design and validate robust electromechanical systems for an autonomous gun turret. Perform kinematic and multibody dynamic analysis, structural/dynamic/modal/vibration/thermal simulations, and MIL-STD-810–grade testing. Integrate mechanical and electrical components, create detailed drawings and test protocols, support prototyping and manufacturing, and contribute to cross-functional design reviews to ensure durability, reliability, and manufacturability.

Create and maintain detailed SolidWorks mechanical drawings, 3D models, assemblies, BOMs, and documentation. Apply GD&T and tolerancing, support prototyping and production, and collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and embedded teams to ensure manufacturable designs.

Design and validate rugged mechanical systems for a military-grade autonomous turret. Perform FEA, modal, vibration, and thermal simulations, lead structural testing, integrate electromechanical components, create detailed drawings and test protocols, support prototyping and manufacturing, and ensure designs meet MIL-STD-810 environmental and reliability standards.
