Senior Pcb Designer Jobs in Indiana (NOW HIRING)

Description

At Arrive AI (Nasdaq: ARAI), we're not just building products-we're transforming the future of the Autonomous Last Mile (ALM). Over a decade ago, we started with a pioneering vision and patents for the first smart mailbox for drone delivery. Through systematic research, development, and deep customer collaboration, we've evolved to today where we deploy Arrive Points-a type of smart locker and mini-cross-docks for frictionless drone, robotic, and courier delivery and pickup, utilized from medical supplies to meals to e-commerce. Arrive AI is now growing and investing to scale an ALM network and platform of the future for all autonomous delivery providers, services, and customers. Arrive AI is the intelligent choice for the last inch of the Autonomous Last Mile. 

About Us: 

We move fast, balancing strategy with opportunity. We are merit-based, valuing integrity, innovation, and treating others as we want to be treated. At Arrive AI, every employee is an equity holder and a business owner. Our shared vision, ownership, and culture fuel our mission to revolutionize autonomous delivery. 

Product Team 

You'll be joining Arrive AI's Product Team to revolutionize Autonomous Last Mile (ALM) logistics by transforming over a decade of research, design, and customer collaboration into the world's first autonomous logistics network and platform. Our fast-paced skunkworks team rapidly iterates, prototypes, and develops next-generation Arrive Point units, networks, and AI-powered platforms. By integrating cutting-edge hardware, robotics, IoT, software, data, AI, and manufacturing, we're driving a bold roadmap for ALM innovation. Based in Fishers, IN, we offer a unique opportunity to do your life's best work, shape the future, and share in the success. 

The Role: 

We are seeking an experienced Electro-Mechanical Engineer to assist in the design and development of an autonomous robotic cabinet system. This role requires a hands-on engineer who is equally comfortable with mechanical design, motion systems, electrical integration, and prototype development.

The ideal candidate will help develop reliable, manufacturable hardware by selecting and integrating motors, actuators, sensors, and supporting electrical components while working closely with our internal engineering team.

Responsibilities: 

• Design and develop electro-mechanical systems for a robotic cabinet platform.
• Select and integrate motors, gearboxes, actuators, bearings, linear guides, and motion transmission components.
• Evaluate and specify sensors including limit switches, Hall sensors, optical sensors, encoders, proximity sensors, and safety interlocks.
• Ensure compatibility between motors, sensors, drivers, power supplies, and embedded control electronics.
• Work closely with PCB and firmware engineers to ensure proper electrical interfaces and control strategies.
• Develop mechanical assemblies using CAD (Creo preferred) with emphasis on manufacturability and serviceability.
• Design brackets, mounts, linkages, sheet metal, machined components, and injection molded parts as required.
• Build and test prototypes, troubleshoot hardware issues, and iterate designs based on testing.
• Generate engineering documentation including drawings, BOMs, assembly procedures, and design specifications.
• Collaborate with contract manufacturers and suppliers to support prototype and production builds.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with IoT-connected products or smart hardware devices.
• Familiarity with embedded controllers such as STM32, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, or similar platforms.
• Experience integrating CAN, I2C, SPI, UART, RS485, or Ethernet-based devices.
• Knowledge of thermal management, environmental sealing, and outdoor product design.
• Familiarity with DFMEA, tolerance analysis, and reliability testing.
• Experience bringing products from prototype through production.

Requirements

• 5+ years of electro-mechanical engineering experience, preferably in robotics, automation, industrial equipment, or autonomous systems.
• Strong CAD proficiency (Creo preferred) and experience designing for manufacturability.
• Solid understanding of motion control systems including stepper motors, servo motors, BLDC motors, gear reduction, lead screws, belts, chains, and linear actuators.
• Experience selecting motors based on torque, speed, duty cycle, and load calculations.
• Understanding of electrical fundamentals including voltage, current, power budgets, driver compatibility, power distribution, grounding, EMI considerations, and connector selection.
• Experience integrating sensors, encoders, limit switches, and other feedback devices into embedded systems.
• Ability to read electrical schematics and collaborate with PCB and firmware engineers.
• Experience working with contract manufacturers and external design partners.
• Comfortable moving between CAD design, hands-on prototyping, testing, troubleshooting, and documentation.
• Experience working in fast-paced, iterative product development environments with evolving requirements.

We are looking for a practical engineer who enjoys solving multidisciplinary problems and can bridge the gap between mechanical design and electrical system integration to create robust robotic hardware. 

At this time, we are not able to provide visa sponsorship for this position.
