What we do 

The External Manufacturing team sits within the Quality organization and partners cross-functionally with internal teams and vendor manufacturers to ensure Symbotic’s automated solutions meet and exceed quality, functional, and reliability standards by designing and implementing manufacturing strategies, quality systems, and standards that enable scalability, efficiency, and cost effectiveness as the company grows. In close collaboration with Project Management, Quality Engineering, and external manufacturing partners, the team ensures quality is embedded throughout every phase—from supplier components and manufacturing processes through installation and field deployment—delivering consistent, high-performing systems for our customers.

  • Drive Design for Manufacturability (DFM) analysis and manufacturing readiness reviews for all new product introductions. 

  • Oversee management of tooling and capital investments to support growth. 

  • Perform analysis, including FEA and tolerance analysis, to optimize designs for performance, cost, and manufacturability.  

  • Work closely with mechanical, electrical, software, controls, manufacturing, and quality engineering teams to ensure seamless integration and product success.  

  • Identify and troubleshoot design challenges, implement effective solutions, and drive continuous improvement.  

  • Clearly communicate complex technical information to both technical and non-technical audiences. Contribute to a collaborative team environment and a culture of learning.  

  • Up to 25% of travel may be required. 

What you’ll need 

  • Bachelor's degree Engineering or equivalent industry experience. 

  • Minimum of 8 years of relevant industry experience.  

  • Strong foundation in mechanical/electrical design principles and hands-on experience.  

  • Demonstrated ability to select and integrate components such as motors, sensors, and actuators.  

  • Experience with a variety of manufacturing processes (machining, welding, electrical, casting, sheet metal, plastics).  

  • Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and critical thinking skills.  

  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills.  

  • Proven ability to work effectively as part of a team.  

  • Passion for robotics, automation, and innovation.  

  • Experience in industrial robotics, automation, or material handling (preferred).  

  • Knowledge of PLM systems (preferred).  

  • Experience with design for manufacturing and assembly (DFMA) (preferred). 

Our Environment 

  • Up to 25% of travel may be required. Employees must have a valid driver’s license and the ability to drive and/or fly to client and other customer locations.  

  • The employee is responsible for owning a credit card and managing expenses personally to be reimbursed bi-weekly.
