We are a group of engineers, scientists, roboticists, and company builders developing foundation models and learning algorithms to power the robots of today and the physically-actuated devices of the future.\r\nThe Team\r\nRobot Prototype Engineering Technicians collaborate closely with robot design engineers to build, test, and refine early stage robots. In this role you will use skills with assembly, fabrication, electronics, and troubleshooting to build initial robot designs, identify design flaws for improvement in future design iterations, propose solutions for improvements regarding build, maintenance, and repair of robots. These technicians are part of the robot fleet team within the PI Hardware Organization.\r\nIn This Role You Will\r\nFabricate and Assembly Robot Prototype Systems and Components: Build mechanical/electrical prototypes using tools, 3D printing, soldering, and machining. Review and understand mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, and wiring diagrams for prototype assembly.\r\nRepair Robot Prototype Systems and Components\r\nRepair mechanical components such as actuators, motors, gearboxes, bearings, and moving parts that could fail or break in initial prototype designs.\r\nRepair electrical systems including wiring, circuits, power supplies, sensors, and control systems that could fail or break in initial prototype designs.\r\nPerform Basic Troubleshooting and Testing of Robot Prototype Systems and Components: Conduct basic functional tests and troubleshooting failures to engineering feedback to improve prototype designs. Perform tests on electrical systems using diagnostic tools, multimeters, oscilloscopes, and other specialized equipment.\r\nCollaboration Effectively with Hardware Design Engineers: Work with engineering teams to iterate designs based on experimental results.
