TL;DR · Mechatronics Engineer

The Anduril Frontier Systems team is seeking a Hardware/Mechatronics Engineer to maintain, modify, and integrate robotic platforms for defense applications. This hands-on role involves repairing and maintaining robots, designing custom mechanical assemblies, integrating sensors, and supporting field testing. The ideal candidate has 3+ years of experience in mechatronics or robotics hardware integration, proficiency with CAD software like SolidWorks and Fusion 360, and expertise in fabrication techniques such as CNC machining and 3D printing. Experience with legged robotic platforms, dexterous hand/gripper hardware, and electrical systems is preferred. This role demands a strong understanding of sensor integration, mechanical design, and the ability to work in unstructured environments where robustness and reliability are paramount.

What you'll do

  • Maintain and repair robotic platforms, including joint module replacement and actuator diagnostics.
  • Design and fabricate custom mechanical assemblies for payload mounting systems and sensor brackets.
  • Integrate sensors such as cameras, LiDAR, IMU, and force/torque into robotic platforms.
  • Develop end-effector modifications and task-specific tooling for robotic applications.
  • Support field testing and rapid hardware triage during demonstrations.

What we're looking for

  • 3+ years of experience in mechatronics or robotics hardware integration.
  • Hands-on expertise with robotic platforms, including assembly and repair.
  • Proficiency in CAD software (SolidWorks, Fusion 360) and fabrication techniques.
  • Experience integrating sensors and calibrating systems for robotic platforms.
  • Working knowledge of electrical systems, motor drivers, and embedded hardware.
