About the role
TL;DR
Ensure structural integrity and performance of robots from concept to production.
- •As a CAE Engineer at Mind Robotics, you will ensure the structural integrity and performance of our robots from concept to production.
- •Key Responsibilities Own structural CAE across the robot
- •arms, torso, base, and end effectors
- •from concept through production validation.
- •Build and analyze FE models from component level to full-system assemblies: linear and non-linear static analysis for strength, stiffness, and deflection, including bolted joints, contact, and buckling.
- •Perform dynamic analyses
- •modal, frequency response, transient, and shock / impact
- •covering structural resonances, base-induced vibration during locomotion, and collision events during manipulation.
- •Requirements 5+ years of experience (or equivalent "hard tech" projects) performing structural FEA on complex electromechanical systems.
- •Strong first-principles fundamentals in stress / strain, structural dynamics, and vibration
- •able to sanity-check every model with hand calculations.
- •Proficiency in linear and non-linear static, dynamic, and modal simulation using tools such as Abaqus, Ansys, OptiStruct / HyperWorks, Nastran, or LS-DYNA.
