System Engineer Robotic Actuators (m/f/x)
Core
Design and validate the architecture of compact, high-torque electric actuator systems (motor, inverter, gearbox, sensors) for humanoid robots, translating use cases into component requirements and ensuring performance on test benches and in customer robots.
Role type
System Engineer (Robot Actuators)
Builds
Actuator systems for humanoid robots
Domain
Robotics / Mechatronics / Electric Drives
Required skills
System requirements engineering, actuator system integration, system level testing and validation, electromagnetic and thermal simulation, mechanical/electrical/thermal interface definition, customer technical liaison
