Mechatronics Engineer: our view in 3 lines...
- The Role:This role is for a mechatronics engineer working on autonomous systems for physical infrastructure.
- The Person:The person will design robot structures and mechanisms, integrate motors, gearboxes, bearings, sensors, and other electromechanical components, and take systems through prototyping, fabrication, assembly, wiring, bring-up, and field testing.
- Requirements:The ideal candidate is pursuing or has recently completed a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, or a related field, and has experience with CAD and hands-on prototyping.
About the role
Lambda Robotics (YC F26) builds autonomous systems for physical infrastructure. As a Robotics Mechatronics Engineer, you’ll design and integrate the mechanical, actuation, sensing, and electromechanical systems that allow our robots to operate reliably in the real world.
What you’ll do
- Design robot structures, mechanisms, actuator assemblies, sensor mounts, and protective enclosures.
- Integrate motors, gearboxes, bearings, sensors, and other electromechanical components.
- Take systems from CAD through prototyping, fabrication, assembly, wiring, bring-up, and field testing.
- Work closely with electrical engineers to integrate complete robotic systems.
What we’re looking for
- Currently pursuing or recently completed an undergraduate or master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, or a related field.
- Strong fundamentals in mechanical design, machine elements, materials, and manufacturing processes.
- Experience with CAD, hands-on prototyping, machining, fabrication, or robot assembly.
- Familiarity with actuators, motors, sensors, wiring, and electromechanical system integration.
- A bias toward shipping, testing, and improving systems in the field.
Lambda Robotics builds and deploys robots for the infrastructure powering frontier AI.
