Job-Kategorie: Tesla AI

Standort: Holzgerlingen, BW

Anforderungs-ID: 276904

Arbeitsverhältnis: Full-time

Was Sie erwartet

The Optimus geartrain manufacturing team is seeking a skilled and highly motivated, mechanical equipment design engineer with high precision equipment build experience within gearbox, electric motor or other industries focusing on rotating machinery design and manufacturing. We work with the cross-functional teams (Design, Quality, Production, Sustaining, Automation, and Supply Chain) throughout the entire lifecycle of a product (from initial design through prototype development and into full production) to develop volume manufacturable designs and processes that will produce gearboxes. The role of the equipment design engineer is to support establishing a world-class production line for gearboxes and drive scalable design and production methods used to make “the machines that make the machines”.

The ideal candidate takes pride in their work, has excellent engineering and physics fundamentals with hands on experience, is excited about manufacturing equipment and process development, does not shy away from a challenge, highly organized, has great attention to detail, and is able to work in fast paced development environment with analytical and practical engineering focus.

Was zu tun ist

Own design of equipment builds through their entire lifecycle, from initial concept generation through assembly and production bring-up

Prepare overall machine design concepts for custom designed, special purpose manufacturing equipment and systems

Detailed machine design including drawings of custom automated tooling, fixtures, mechanisms, robotic end of arm tooling etc.

Detailed engineering analysis of custom mechanical components including hand calculations and finite element analysis

Selection and integration of commercial components, sensors, motors, pneumatic, hydraulic actuators, etc.

Conduct design reviews for internal team feedback and for cross-functional presentations. Be a liaison between actuator, gearbox, design and manufacturing engineering departments

Lead all technical conversations with sub-system or supporting equipment suppliers

Create detailed drawings and coordinate with internal and external machine shops to fabricate custom machined parts, weldments, extrusions and sheet metal components

Work with technician teams to assemble and commission new equipment

Validate equipment performance and reliability. Create comprehensive equipment handover packages and system documentation

Was mitzubringen ist
