Senior Manager of Mechatronics Engineering at Dandy, leading development of next-gen robotic manufacturing systems for custom prosthetics. Expanding innovative technology in dental practices.
Responsibilities
Architect and integrate complex robotic hardware systems, including precision actuators, sensors, and electromechanical subsystems, ensuring they meet the micron-level reliability required for custom prosthetic manufacturing applications.
Apply deep technical knowledge of both additive (3D printing) and subtractive (milling, grinding, polishing) processes to design versatile, high-precision manufacturing platforms.
Lead the rapid prototyping of components and conduct rigorous structural/thermal analyses. Validate designs through intensive performance testing and failure-mode analysis (FMEA).
Implement and refine motor control logic, sensor fusion, and real-time feedback loops. Define the communication protocols (e.g., EtherCAT, CANopen) to enable robust, real-time robotic operation.
Co-develop machine designs with 3rd party vendors, managing the technical roadmap from initial specification through to machine buy-off, ensuring external partners meet Dandy’s rigorous performance standards.
Act as the primary technical interface between mechanical, electrical, firmware, and software teams to ensure seamless system integration and optimization of system dynamics.
Own product development from "blank sheet" concept through to the factory floor. This includes detailed documentation (CAD, schematics, BOMs) and leading pilot builds through to production-line execution.
Requirements
8+ years of machine-building experience, specifically in hardware, mechatronics, or robotics engineering with a focus on system-level architecture for production systems.
B.S./M.S. or Ph.D. in Mechatronics, Mechanical, Electrical, or Robotics Engineering.
Proven ability to work as an individual contributor in an early-stage environment while possessing the leadership skills to scale a team.
Expert-level proficiency with Solidworks or similar platforms and a deep understanding of varied fabrication and manufacturing processes.
Profound knowledge of robotic kinematics/dynamics, motor controllers, and simulation tools.
Hands-on experience with sensor integration, embedded systems, and industrial design execution.
Knowledge of industrial design principles, mockup development, vendor interaction, and regulatory/safety compliance standards for automated machinery.
Exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to mentor junior engineers and manage multiple projects in a high-velocity high growth environment.
Ability to self-direct, self-managing issues to closure involving all necessary teams, and adapt quickly to program changes.
Willingness to travel to suppliers, manufacturing, and testing facilities as required throughout product development (~20% travel).
