Hybrid (San Francisco, CA)Full-timePosted 1w ago
About the role
Mechanical Systems Integration Engineer responsible for physical integration of sensors, compute hardware, actuators, and subsystems onto autonomous construction machines, translating system requirements into robust mechanical designs optimized for scale, reliability, manufacturing, and operations.
Responsibilities
- Mechanical Integration Design: Develop mounting brackets, enclosures, class A surfaces, and structural interfaces for sensors (cameras, LiDAR, radar, IMUs), compute units, and ancillary hardware onto vehicle platforms.
- 3D CAD Design: Create detailed part and assembly models using Onshape including GD&T-compliant drawings for fabrication and vendor sourcing.
- Routing & Packaging: Define physical routing paths for wire harnesses, fluid lines, and cooling components within tight mechanical envelopes.
- Environmental Protection: Design and select sealing, gasketing, and protective enclosures (IP-rated) to safeguard electronics from moisture, dust, and contamination.
- Prototype Build Support: Hands-on participation in prototype builds, hardware installation, fit-check validation, and iterative design refinement on the shop floor.
- Structural & Thermal Analysis: Perform first-order hand calculations and collaborate with analysis teams to validate designs for static loads, vibration fatigue, and thermal dissipation.
- Supplier & Vendor Management: Source custom brackets, enclosures, and machined components from RFQ through delivery with fabrication vendors and contract manufacturers.
- Retrofit Strategy: Design non-invasive mechanical integration solutions for OEM donor vehicles while preserving factory structure and serviceability.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with electrical, software, and field teams during bring-up and validation phases to resolve fit, form, and function issues on prototype machines.
- BOM & Documentation: Maintain accurate Bills of Materials, assembly drawings, and integration documentation throughout the product lifecycle.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field, or equivalent experience
- 5+ years of experience in mechanical design and integration for vehicles, heavy machinery, robotics, or industrial equipment.
- Strong hands-on 3D CAD experience (Onshape, SolidWorks, CATIA, or Siemens NX); familiarity with PDM/PLM systems a plus
