Agility’s commercially deployed humanoids operate alongside teams in warehouses,
manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers—tackling physically demanding
and repetitive tasks while enabling workers to focus on higher-value work. With
industry-leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're
pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential.
About The Role:
At Agility, our Hardware Innovation team is a small, interdisciplinary group
responsible for discovering new technologies, de-risking novel approaches, and
enabling cutting-edge behaviors for our robotic platforms. We operate as a
forward-looking unit, bridging the gap between current capabilities and the
future of Digit.
As a Senior Robotics Mechanical Engineer, you will be instrumental in bringing
these future-facing projects to life. Working alongside veteran roboticists, you
will own the prototype lifecycle of new electromechanical subsystems - from
initial analysis and CREO design to hands-on assembly and experimental testing.
You should be comfortable integrating components like motors, cameras, and
encoders, and ready to support "whatever is needed" to get a system
running—which may include circuit design, wiring, or embedded software depending
on your skillset. While our team is nimble, you will collaborate with experts
across the entire organization to pull in specialized knowledge as projects
evolve from concept to reality.
About the work:
* Utilize CAD software to design durable components that meet specific load,
industrial design, manufacturability and lifetime requirements.
* Develop and build custom test fixtures to assist with component and system
validation testing.
* Work closely with cross-functional teams (e.g. Mechanical, Electrical,
Software, Manufacturing) to integrate designs and resolve issues.
* Participate in design reviews, providing input and incorporating feedback
from the team.
* Maintain clear and organized documentation of design iterations, analysis
results, and test data.
* Investigate and troubleshoot mechanical failures or performance issues in
existing hardware and implement corrective actions.
About You
* BSME + 5 years relevant industry experience OR MSME +3 years relevant
industry experience OR PhD + 1 years relevant industry experience
* Experience in electromechanical system design, including familiarity with
mechanisms, actuators, thermal management, sensor/electronics integration,
and/or structures.
* Practical fabrication experience and a portfolio of projects (ranging from
college competitions to high-tech industry experience - we want to see what
you’ve been up to!).
* Proficient in mechanical CAD software (PTC Creo preferred)
* Proficient at creating mechanical drawings and familiarity with GD&T
* Experience supporting test design, implementation and reporting
Preferred Skills and Experience:
* Creo/Windchill Experience
* A basic understanding of robotics principles, control systems, or
mechatronics.
* Familiarity with common components in robotic systems, specifically electric
motors, motor controllers, gearboxes, encoders, and bearings.
* Experience designing systems that need to meet tight size or weight
requirements.
* Experience with basic programming skills (e.g., Python, MATLAB) for data
analysis, engineering calculations, or simple task automation.
