Description
As a Manufacturing Engineer – Robot, you will support the build, test, and continuous improvement of Capstan’s robotic system across all phases of manufacturing – from sub-assemblies (eg. actuator stack) through full system integration. This is a hands-on, onsite role ideal for an early-career engineer who thrives in troubleshooting complex electro-mechanical systems and learning by doing. You will work closely with senior manufacturing engineers and cross functional partners to debug issues on the manufacturing line, execute testing, analyze build and test data, and document non-conformances. Over time, you will grow your ability to independently investigate failures, improve processes, and contribute to scalable manufacturing solutions for our novel surgical robotic platform.
Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or related field; Minimum 1-3 years of relevant experience in manufacturing engineering, system integration or reliability engineering for complex electro-mechanical products (robotics, medical devices, or similar); Hands-on experience assembling, testing, or debugging electro-mechanical systems (eg. PCBs, actuators, motors, sensors); Ability to troubleshoot across mechanical, electrical and software interfaces; Strong scripting and data analysis skills (Python, MATLAB, or similar); Experience with CAD (SolidWorks or similar) for fixture/tooling design; Demonstrated success leading root cause investigations and implementing design/process fixes; Strong attention to detail and comfort working in a fast-paced, hands-on environment; Comfortable collaborating with engineers, technicians and cross-functional teams; Excellent communication and documentation skills; Hands-on mindset with a passion for building and improving real hardware; Eagerness to learn and push the envelope to bring a novel surgical robotic platform to market; Familiarity with medical device regulations (eg. ISO 13485) preferred.
