Agility Robotics is a pioneer. Our robot, Digit, is the first to be sold into workplaces across the globe. Our team is differentiated by its expertise in imagining, engineering, and delivering robots with advanced mobility, dexterity, intelligence, and efficiency -- robots specifically designed to work alongside people, in spaces built for people. Every day, we break through engineering challenges and invent new solutions and capabilities that will one day make robots commonplace and approachable. This work is our passion and our responsibility: our mission is to make businesses more productive and people’s lives more fulfilling.
About the Team:
Our mechanical engineering team is agile and has grown rapidly, and we are looking for a talented engineering leader to join us. We are responsible for delivering advanced and reliable designs that meet a complex set of requirements to our customers, including software developers, applications engineers, manufacturing engineers and ultimately to fleet deployment managers. We work as a group to develop new technologies, engineer new products, and refine/maintain existing designs. The team is composed of engineers from many backgrounds and levels of experience. We are organized in small groups, each responsible for high-level subsystems including actuators, torso, limbs, end effectors and battery modules. We look for anyone who has demonstrated excellence, creativity and passion for their work and who enjoys collaborating with and supporting others.
About The Role:
We are currently designing the next generation of Digit for commercial scale. Highly reliable and robust designs are critical to successful deployment of our robots in large quantities. Digit works in demanding environments, performing highly repetitive and heavily loaded tasks. This individual will work directly for the Hardware Engineering Vice President and will be responsible for managing, growing and inspiring a talented team of mechanical design engineers. The Director will work closely with their team to understand the unique requirements for our products and play a key role in ensuring that we have robot designs that are robust and production-ready.
