Descrizione

Testo originale dell'annuncio (in inglese)

ARQUIMEA , we are a technology company operating globally and providing innovate solutions and products in highly demanding sectors. Our areas of activity are Aerospace, Defense & Security, Big Science, Biotechnology and Fintech. Main function and scope: We are looking for a Mechanical Engineer to join the Robotics Mechanical Design Team within PULSAR HRI , ARQUIMEA’s robotics area focused on high-performance motors, actuators and advanced robotic systems. The successful candidate will work on the design, development, integration, testing and validation of mechanical subsystems for complex mechatronic and optronic platforms. The role is especially oriented toward systems involving precision mechanics, mechanical simulation, stabilized structures, sensor payloads, pan-tilt mechanisms, actuation, environmental protection, thermal management and product-oriented mechanical design . The candidate will contribute to the development of systems including ruggedized assemblies that may integrate optical sensors, actuators, bearings, transmissions, enclosures, thermal management components and mechanical interfaces. These systems must operate reliably in technically demanding environments and require a strong balance between mechanical performance, manufacturability, robustness, maintainability and practical testing. This role is focused on hands-on mechanical engineering : turning concepts into CAD models, drawings, prototypes, test setups, validated assemblies and production-ready designs. The candidate will work closely with software, control, electronics, systems, manufacturing and testing teams to ensure that mechanical solutions are technically sound, buildable, testable and aligned with system-level requirements. The candidate is not expected to be a senior expert in every area . We are looking for someone with solid mechanical engineering fundamentals, good technical judgement, curiosity, practical problem-solving ability and a willing disposition to learn, build, test and improve real systems. Core Functions: Design mechanical parts, assemblies and subsystems for robotic, mechatronic and optronic platforms. Develop mechanical concepts for stabilized payloads, pan-tilt systems, sensor integration, actuator integration, enclosures, structural supports and precision mechanisms. Create and maintain 3D CAD models, assemblies, 2D manufacturing drawings, bills of materials and technical documentation. Support the mechanical development of ruggedized systems operating in demanding environments, considering stiffness, vibration, shock, sealing, corrosion, thermal behaviour, weight, manufacturability and maintainability. Design mechanical interfaces for cameras, optical payloads, sensors, motors, actuators, electronics, cable routing, connectors and auxiliary subsystems. Work on prototype design, assembly, integration, testing, debugging and iterative improvement of mechanical solutions. Participate in mechanical testing and validation activities, including functional testing, alignment checks, load tests, vibration-related evaluations, thermal checks, endurance tests and assembly verification. Support tolerance analysis, material selection, bearing selection, fastening strategies, sealing approaches and mechanical architecture decisions. Collaborate with manufacturing suppliers and internal teams to ensure that parts can be machined, assembled, inspected and maintained effectively. Apply design-for-manufacturing, design-for-assembly and design-for-test principles from early development stages. Identify mechanical risks, diagnose failures or performance limitations and propose practical corrective actions. Contribute to the integration of mechanical systems with electronics, embedded devices, control software, sensors and actuation technologies. Support the preparation of prototypes, test benches, laboratory setups and field-test configurations. Provide feedback to actuator, motor, electronics, software and control teams based on real m
