Apptronik is building robots for the real world to improve human quality of life and to help solve the ever-increasing labor shortage problem. Our team has been building some of the most advanced robots on the planet for years, dating back to the DARPA Robotics Challenge. We apply our expertise across the full robotics stack to some of the most important and impactful problems our society faces, and expect our products and technology to change the world for the better. We value passion, creativity, and collaboration to help us overcome existing technological barriers in the industry to create truly innovative products.
You will join a team developingstate-of-the-art general-purpose robots designed to operate in human spaces and with human tools. It is designed to work alongside humans, mobilize to human spaces, and manipulate the world around it.We’re seeking Surface Designers / CAD Modelers to help shape the future of robotics. We’re looking for individuals with a multidisciplinary skillset, passionate about working at the cutting edge of an emerging industry. As a key member of our growing design team, you’ll collaborate with Industrial Designers and Engineers to define what a humanoid robot should look like, who it should serve, and bring a collective vision to life through precise, high-quality surface and 3D modeling.
Responsibilities:
- Work closely with designers to translate sketches and CAD models into accurate Class-A surfaces whilst maintaining original design intent.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate conceptual design input into production design surfaces.
- Evaluate design concepts for feasibility, surface quality and manufacturability, providing feedback and recommendations for optimization.
- Maintain digital surface documentation related to surface development, as well as an organized library of design les and versions for project tracking.
- Ensure all surfaces meet visual standards through thorough validation and design reviews.
- Stay up-to-date with emerging technologies and tools, as well as best practices in industrial design and engineering to drive innovation and improve processes.
Skills and Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in industrial design, automotive design, mechanical engineering or related eld.
