Senior Mechanical Design Engineer (Dexterous Facial Robot System)

Full-time·Remote-friendly

Responsible for the core mechanical design and engineering implementation of the robot’s dexterous facial system, delivering a highly realistic, expressive, and long‑term stable facial mechanical structure.
Design high‑degree‑of‑freedom miniature facial mechanisms, achieving lightweight, high‑precision, and highly reliable mechanical solutions for robotic facial expressions.
Conduct core mechanical development including facial actuation structures, transmission mechanisms, skeleton layout, and flexible connection systems.
Perform structural strength, stiffness, fatigue life, and kinematic analysis to ensure long‑term operational stability of facial motion systems.
Utilize CAE simulation tools for structural verification and optimization, covering mechanical stress, deformation, lifespan, and dynamic performance evaluation.
Lead prototype assembly, mechanical debugging, failure analysis, and iterative structural optimization.
Collaborate with algorithm, electronics, driver, and industrial design teams to integrate mechanical structures with perception systems, facial expression control, and human‑robot interaction modules.
Drive mechanical solutions from proof‑of‑concept to mass production, including DFM optimization, assembly logic definition, process adaptation, and cost reduction.
Establish standardized specifications for the robotic facial expression system, including structural interface definitions, modular design principles, and maintainability standards.
