about the role
We are looking for a motivated and skilled Hardware / Mechanical Engineer (m/f/d)
As part of this team, you will contribute to both supporting existing robotic platforms and developing next-generation prototypes for high-degree-of-freedom (high-DOF) robotic systems.
In this role, you will ensure reliable operation of our robotic systems, while also designing and implementing robust mechanisms that meet the demands of cutting-edge applications. Success in this position requires a combination of technical expertise, hands-on problem-solving, and the ability to adapt in a fast-paced, uncertain environment.

your responsibilities
- Design and develop complex robotic mechanisms, ensuring high precision, reliability, and manufacturability (from drawing to finished part)
- Create detailed CAD models, technical drawings, and assembly documentation for production
- Prototype mechanical parts using 3D printing and workshop tools
- Support assembly and integration of mechatronic systems, including basic electrical wiring and component installation
- Conduct testing and commissioning of robotic systems and ensure smooth operation
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (electrical, software, manufacturing) to ensure seamless system integration
- Troubleshoot and resolve mechanical issues during development and production phases
- Stay updated with emerging technologies and best practices in robotics and mechanical design
- Work autonomously on open-ended, evolving tasks
essential skills
- Proficiency in CAD software (SolidWorks preferred, knowledge of PDM systems is a plus)
- Hands-on experience with mechanical assembly, prototyping, and electrical wiring
- Practical workshop skills: 3D printing, CNC machining, laser cutting, drill press
- Strong knowledge of mechanical design principles (kinematics, dynamics, tolerances, manufacturability)
- Comfortable working independently and in cross-functional teams
- Self-motivated, reliable, and solution-oriented mindset
- Fluent in English; German or Chinese skills are a plus
- Flexibility to travel occasionally for customer installations and support
beneficial skills
- Experience in robotics, automation, or system integration
- Knowledge of electronics, sensors, and camera systems (e.g., ZED, Intel RealSense)
- Familiarity with technical standards and compliance in robotics/mechatronics
your profile
- Degree or technical training in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field
- Strong problem-solving and analytical thinking skills
- Self-driven with a passion for cutting-edge robotics technology
- Detail-oriented with a focus on robust system design
- Adaptable to a dynamic, fast-paced development cycle
