Responsibilities include custom camera and sensor module development, optical vendor and contract manufacturer coordination, ISP tuning, high-speed video link debugging, camera-LiDAR-IMU synchronization, calibration fixture deployment, DVT and EOL testing, and cross-functional technical leadership across mechanical, thermal, industrial design, software, and manufacturing teams.

Own and maintain Altium ECAD libraries, including schematic symbols, PCB footprints, pad stacks, and 3D models. Ensure component accuracy, IPC and JEDEC compliance, DFM/DFA readiness, standardized metadata, lifecycle governance, and revision control. Manage part-introduction workflows, audits, and ECAD-to-PLM integration while collaborating with electrical, mechanical, manufacturing, supply chain, and contract manufacturing teams. Automate library processes through scripting and support board bring-up and design reviews.

Leads video strategy and end-to-end production for robotics and hard-tech storytelling. Develops concepts, scripts, storyboards, and pitches; directs talent and cinematography; manages schedules, logistics, budgets, shoots, editing, and post-production vendors. Produces cinematic product launches, digital campaigns, brand narratives, internal updates, and photography assets. Collaborates with executives, product managers, and engineering teams to translate complex robotics breakthroughs into accessible, compelling content.

Lead the design and development of robotic gloves, soft goods, grip surfaces, elastomeric components, and flexible protective interfaces for a humanoid robot. Develop materials, coatings, sensor integration, mechanical architectures, prototypes, validation methods, and serviceable production designs. Collaborate with manufacturing partners and cross-functional engineering teams from concept through production, troubleshoot failures, support DFM, and mentor junior engineers.

Lead mechanical design and integration of battery packs, enclosures, charging interfaces, and autonomous docking stations for humanoid robots. Drive mechanical architecture, structural and thermal analysis, prototyping, validation, reliability, manufacturability, supplier collaboration, and production support. Partner cross-functionally with electrical, controls, software, systems, manufacturing, quality, and supply chain teams while mentoring junior engineers and establishing design best practices.

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.

Own power electronics, power distribution, battery, and PCBA development for Apollo humanoid robots from concept through production. Design, simulate, prototype, validate, and debug mixed-signal PCBAs; develop battery modules and charging systems; create test fixtures and documentation; manage component lifecycles, vendors, contract manufacturers, and DFM/DFA activities. Collaborate across engineering and manufacturing teams, perform root-cause analysis, and mentor junior engineers. Travel up to 10%.

Own schematic capture and PCB layout for mixed-signal, power, and high-speed digital boards using Altium Designer. Define stack-ups, route power and high-speed interfaces, apply DFM/DFA and EMC/EMI practices, and create manufacturing documentation. Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, thermal, manufacturing, fabricators, and contract manufacturers to deliver production-ready designs. Manage libraries and design rules, support compliance testing, contribute to releases, and mentor junior designers.

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

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.
