Job description

Position Summary:
We are hiring a Mechanical Engineer to design, build, and ship high-performance mechanical systems for our robot. In this role, you will own the design of defined mechanical components and subassemblies-mechanisms, structures, joints, housings, sensor packaging, and subsystem interfaces. You will work closely with controls, electrical, firmware, systems, and manufacturing teams to translate robot-level requirements into robust hardware and mature prototypes into reliable, high-volume production designs. This role is ideal for an engineer who thrives owning designs end to end, from first-principles analysis through hands-on bring-up, system integration, validation, and into production.
Core Responsibilities:
  • Design and deliver robotic mechanical components and subassemblies, including mechanisms, structural assemblies, joints, linkages, housings, bearing systems, and integrated sensor and electronics packaging.
  • Perform component sizing and validation through first-principles analysis and FEA-tolerance stack-ups, structural and fatigue analysis, stiffness, thermal behavior, and load-path evaluation.
  • Own assigned designs from concept through DFM/DFA, prototype builds, and production release, partnering with external manufacturers and suppliers to ensure high-quality parts and assembly.
  • Partner cross-functionally with systems, controls, electrical, and firmware teams to define requirements and integrate mechanical designs into the broader robot platform.
  • Participate in design reviews and hardware bring-up; plan and execute component-, subsystem-, and robot-level testing to characterize performance and root-cause failures.
  • Contribute to mechanical design standards and best practices for robotic system development and share technical knowledge across the team.

Required Qualifications:
  • 5+ years of experience delivering mechanical or electromechanical products from concept through production, or an MS degree plus 3 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Strong experience in mechanical system design, including mechanisms, structures, joints, bearings, housings, material selection, and mechanical packaging.
  • Strong proficiency with 3D CAD-SolidWorks, CATIA, or NX-and rigorous application of GD&T and tolerance analysis.
  • Demonstrated analytical ability using both hand calculations and FEA for structural, fatigue, stiffness, and thermal design decisions.
  • Hands-on experience building, instrumenting, and testing mechanical or electromechanical hardware, including system integration and systematic troubleshooting.
  • Strong communication, ownership, and a collaborative, cross-functional approach to development.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Direct experience with robotic systems, preferably humanoid, mobile, and/or manipulation robots.
  • Experience designing robot mechanisms such as articulated joints, limbs, end effectors, linkages, or lightweight structural assemblies.
  • Experience integrating actuators, sensors, electronics, wiring, and thermal systems into tightly packaged assemblies, and with high-volume manufacturing of precision mechanical components.

Walden Robotics offers a competitive total compensation program, including salary, annual cash bonus, company equity, company-subsidized insurance programs, 401(k) with company match, flexible PTO, daily lunch, and other benefits. The pay ranges noted on our posts are for salary only.

If you need assistance and/or a reasonable accommodation due to a disability during the application or the recruiting process, please send a request to hello@waldenrobotics.com.
Walden Robotics participates in E-Verify. If you receive an offer of employment from Walden, you will need to go through the E-Verify process of digital verification of your employment authorization documents as provided on the Form I-9. Participation in E-Verify does not limit your right to work and verification will only be completed after you become an employee with Walden Robotics.
At Walden Robotics, we envision a world where general-purpose robots dramatically improve the quality of life for all people-supporting us at home, at work, in factories, on farms, and beyond. To accomplish this, we are building a team of exceptional professionals who combine world-class technical skills with creative vision, grounded in humility and collaboration.
The pay range for this role is:
118,500 - 158,000 USD per year (BOS)
