Your role

Act as the mechanical technical owner for single-station automation, industrial robot cells (including collaborative robots, where applicable) and tightening-system projects from requirement clarification through design, build, validation, site start-up and final acceptance. Deliver safe, reliable, maintainable and cost-competitive solutions while controlling technical risk, engineering hours, schedule and quality.

Convert successful project solutions and lessons learned into reusable station modules, robot and tightening interfaces, design standards, selection rules and validation methods, improving delivery speed, first-pass yield and lifecycle performance.

Your day-to-day

• Own mechanical delivery for single-station automation, robot cells and traditional tightening solutions; translate customer requirements into design inputs and acceptance criteria, and control scope, engineering hours, milestones, suppliers and changes.

• Develop station layouts and workpiece/tool flow; select robots and verify reach, payload, cycle time and collision risks; integrate robot bases, end-effectors, tool changers, cable routing and cross-functional interfaces.

• Independently deliver mechanical designs, calculations, tolerance analysis, drawings and BOM; design fixtures, clamping and reaction structures, and select and integrate tightening systems with error-proofing, traceability and maintainability.

• Lead risk-based design reviews and FMEA; verify safety, critical loads, repeatability and reliability, close review actions with evidence, and stop or escalate unresolved safety, compliance or critical-quality risks.

• Plan and execute validation and FAT/SAT; support site start-up, TCP calibration and fixture/end-effector optimization with robot programmers; lead root-cause analysis and verified corrective actions, and retain acceptance evidence and reusable lessons.

• Support screw-feeder application reviews, mechanical design and commissioning; assess screw geometry, coatings and pre-applied adhesives, feedability, separation, transport, presentation and jam recovery; agree tool/robot interfaces and validation limits with the feeder owner.

Your skills and experience

• Education & Experience

  • Bachelor’s degree or above in Mechanical engineering, automation or equivalent
  • 5 years’ or more mechanical design experience in Motor Vehicle and/or General Industry
  • Proven industrial robot application experience, including independently completing the mechanical design of robot workstations from concept through site acceptance
  • Proven experience in non-standard equipment and fixture design

• Knowledge & Skills

  • Strong understanding of mechanical design, mechanical principle and mechanical drawing
  • Familiar with parts fabricating processes, heat treatment and surface finishing processes
  • Basic understanding of automatic control principle and components' features, such as switches, sensors, encoders, motors, etc.
  • Solid knowledge of industrial robot selection and kinematics fundamentals (payload, reach, cycle time, singularity) and end-effector design
  • Familiar with robot safety standards (ISO 10218, ISO/TS 15066) and robot offline simulation tools (e.g., RobotStudio, Roboguide, Process Simulate)
  • Be proficient in pneumatic scheme design and components selection.
  • Strong understanding of material properties including high performance steels, stainless steels, aluminium, plastics, rubber and composites
  • Proficient with force analysis and Mechanics of materials
  • Advanced level of CAD skills in SolidWorks and AutoCAD
  • Proficient in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in SolidWorks Simulation
  • Communicative level (spoken & written) in English & Chinese (Mandarin)
