Mechatronics Engineer

We have an immediate need to augment the Engineering team with a Mechatronics Engineer.

At Oxipital AI, we develop and build AI enabled Inspection and Robot Picking Systems to provide actionable insights to our customers for more resilient and efficient manufacturing.  Our systems include AI software, cloud and edge software, cameras, computation, touch screen interfaces and lighting. All systems are integrated into IP69k industrial grade housings. Our systems interface to Robots, End Effectors, Conveyors and Automation Equipment.

As a Mechatronics Engineer on a cross functional team, you will carry out a wide range of activities related to completing customer orders from start to finish including systems design, risk burn down, proof of principle, parts design, parts fabrication to prove out your design, designing and building automation equipment cabinets, testing your design and iterating.

We operate in a high tempo, highly collaborative environment. Your team peers include systems engineers, applications engineers, robot integration engineers, software and machine learning engineers, mechanical and electrical engineers.

As the ideal candidate you have a mechatronics degree and experience in mechanical design, electrical design, industrial component selection, cabling and wiring. You must be fluent in SolidWorks for 3D modeling (or equivalent), simulation, and drawing creation as well as machine shop and rapid prototyping experience. You have experience in the fields of robotics and industrial automation. Ideally you have programming experience in Python and PLC ladder logic. You are a driven individual contributor that thrives when working as part of a highly collaborative, cross functional development team.

At Oxipital AI, we have impressive technology that distinguishes us from the competition. We have a fantastic, cross functional, cohesive team.  If this sounds good to you, please apply.
