Mechanical Systems Integration Engineer

The role

You will perform physical integration of sensors, compute hardware, actuators, and supporting subsystems onto autonomous construction machines. You will work with electrical, software, manufacturing, operations, and supply chain teams to create mechanical designs for real-world environments.

What you will do

• Develop mounting brackets, enclosures, class A surfaces, and structural interfaces for sensors, compute units, and ancillary hardware.
• Create detailed part and assembly models using Onshape including GD&T-compliant drawings.
• Define physical routing paths for wire harnesses, fluid lines, and cooling components.
• Design and select sealing, gasketing, and protective enclosures to safeguard electronics.
• Participate in prototype builds, hardware installation, and fit-check validation.
• Perform hand calculations and collaborate with analysis teams to validate designs for loads, vibration, and thermal dissipation.
• Work with fabrication vendors and contract manufacturers to source components.
• Design non-invasive mechanical integration solutions for OEM donor vehicles.
• Partner with electrical, software, and field teams to resolve fit, form, and function issues.
• Maintain Bills of Materials, assembly drawings, and integration documentation.

Required qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field, or equivalent experience
• 5+ years of experience in mechanical design and integration for vehicles, heavy machinery, robotics, or industrial equipment
• Strong hands-on experience with 3D CAD such as Onshape, SolidWorks, CATIA, or Siemens NX

Nice to have

• familiarity with PDM/PLM systems
