Gearbox Design Engineer (Human)

Riederich, Baden-Württemberg, DeutschlandVollzeitvor 2 Tagen

This is where Artificial Intelligence comes to life

The Mechanical Development team designs the drives, structural parts, and peripherals of our robots. From first concept to manufacturing-ready drawing, this is where lightweight, precise, and series-ready components come to life.

Your mission & challenges

You develop high-precision, low-backlash gearboxes for robotic drives and bring them to series maturity together with suppliers and simulation.

  • Sizing and designing precision gearboxes (e.g., strain wave, cycloidal, planetary gearboxes)

  • Defining tolerances, materials, lubrication, and bearing concepts

  • Collaborating with gearbox/bearing simulation on service-life and stiffness sizing

  • Building, testing, and optimizing gearbox prototypes

  • Technical coordination with gearbox suppliers and manufacturing

What we're looking for

  • Degree in mechanical engineering with a focus on drive technology/design

  • Experience in gearbox development, ideally precision or robotics gearboxes

  • Knowledge of gear design, tolerance management, and tribology

  • Confident use of 3D CAD and sizing tools (e.g., KISSsoft)

  • Analytical thinking and enthusiasm for demanding precision mechanics
