Mechatronics / Mechanical Engineer

Description

RIF Robotics is augmenting the processing of surgical instruments with PacR: an autonomous robotic systems that assembles surgical trays in hospitals, guaranteeing completeness and accuracy. Our robots operate in dynamic real-world environments alongside people every day. We are a small, fast-paced team based in Atlanta building the first robotic we’re taking to market.

The Role

We are looking for a Mechatronics / Mechanical Engineer to help us design and build the physical system. This means developing CAD models, helping with the selection of hardware components, programming Arduinos, calibrating and installing servo motors and motor drivers, wiring components, assembling the chassis, etc.

Although design work can be remote, the role requires someone who can build and test our physical systems in-person on-site 4-5 days a week.

We need someone who has experience designing, developing, and deploying physical systems operating in the real world. The ideal candidate will have mechanical, electrical, and low-level programming experience.
