Leads robotics automation strategy and hands-on software architecture for manipulators and automated forklifts, spanning controls, autonomy, cloud systems, team leadership, and production deployment.
About this role
This open-level engineer develops mechanical systems for humanoids, mobile manipulators, logistics automation and retail robotics. Articulated robots are moving from prototypes to field fleets, and their hardware shapes foundation-model data.
The engineer creates mechanisms, CAD models, assemblies and documents; integrates actuators, transmissions, sensors and structures; builds prototypes; performs structural, thermal, kinematic and tolerance studies; improves reliability, manufacturability and cost; transfers products into production; and works with suppliers.
Candidates need a related engineering background and experience developing electromechanical products or robots. They must have designed moving mechanisms using gears, racks, linear guides, belts and gearboxes and made 2D drawings for both sheet-metal and machined parts. SolidWorks, Creo, CATIA, NX or equivalent CAD, knowledge of materials and manufacturing are required. Professional Japanese and English are mandatory.
