About the Opportunity
I'm supporting a rapidly growing Canadian robotics and AI company whose technology is being deployed by leading manufacturers across automotive and industrial automation environments.
The team is scaling quickly and looking for a Mechatronics Engineer who enjoys solving multidisciplinary problems across robotics, automation, hardware, sensors, testing and software.
This isn't a pure mechanical, electrical, controls, firmware or PLC role. It's a highly hands-on engineering position for someone who enjoys building systems, running experiments, troubleshooting hardware and helping bring automation concepts into reality.
What You'll Be Working On
- Design, build and support robotic test cells, fixtures and proof-of-concept systems
- Integrate sensors, cameras, actuators and automation equipment into robotic platforms
- Create mechanical designs and fixtures using CAD tools like SolidWorks
- Support PLC controlled systems, controls integration and automation workflows
- Develop and execute test plans for robotic systems and hardware platforms
- Collect, analyze and document performance, validation and reliability data
- Investigate system failures and perform root-cause analysis across mechanical, electrical and software domains
- Integrate mechanical, electrical and software systems into functioning robotic, automation and test platforms
- Support hardware evaluation, environmental testing and system characterization efforts
- Work closely with robotics, software and hardware engineers on new product and prototype development
Required Experience
- 3-5+ years of mechatronics engineering experience
- Experience working with physical products and systems
- Hands-on exposure to robotics, automation equipment or similar industrial systems
- PLC programming or industrial controls exposure
- Python, C++ or scripting experience
- Strong troubleshooting and debugging
- Experience using SolidWorks, Onshape or similar CAD tools
- Sensor integration, instrumentation or testing experience
- Ability to work independently and take ownership of projects
Nice to Have
- Robotics programming experience
- Machine vision or camera system experience
- Automated test equipment or validation experience
- Startup or small-team engineering experience
- Exposure to manufacturing, robotics or intelligent automation systems
