Mechanical Engineer - Project

Project Overview

This is a project-based employee role supporting the initial development phase of our autonomous vehicle platforms. Development phases of this nature typically span up to approximately 24 months, though scope and duration are driven by business needs.

The primary responsibilities of a Mechanical Engineer include: researching, planning, and designing mechanical and electromechanical products and systems for ASI's robotic unmanned vehicles. Designs, develops, and tests all aspects of mechanical components, equipment, and machinery. Applies knowledge of engineering principles to design products such as engines, instruments, controls, robots, machines, etc. Conducts product testing and creates models and prototypes. Mechanical Engineers are also responsible for directing and coordinating activities involved in fabrication, operation, application, installation, and repair of mechanical or electromechanical products and systems.

Reports to a manager/supervisor and works on projects/matters of limited complexity in a support role. Work is closely managed.

• Research and analyze data including customer design proposals, specifications and manuals to determine feasibility of design or application.
• Design products or systems for robotic control using electrical, mechanical, pneumatic and hydraulic principles and components.
• Participate in fabrication and installation activities to ensure products and systems conform to engineering design and customer specifications.
• Coordinate operation, maintenance, and repair activities that optimize utilization of machines and equipment.
• Design products and systems to interface machines, hardware, and software.
• Evaluate field installations and recommend design modifications to eliminate machine or systems malfunctions.
• Contribute to design reviews.
