Mechanical Design Engineer

We are looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer with 2-5 years of experience to own mechanical subsystems from concept through working prototype on autonomous robotic systems deployed in real data centre environments. You'll join a tight-knit, in-house hardware team at Droyd, where iteration, fabrication, and execution all happen under one roof. This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives at the intersection of CAD and the shop floor — designing, building, breaking, and iterating on real hardware that makes robots stop being demos and start being infrastructure. If you have a strong portfolio of complete systems taken from concept to physical prototype and love moving fast on hard problems, this is your opportunity.

What will you be doing?

• Own mechanical subsystem design from first sketch through prototype and iteration, making decisions on materials, tolerances, and manufacturing methods
• Design parts and assemblies in CAD, supported by hand calculations and FEA, optimized for rapid prototyping methods including 3D printing and CNC machining
• Build prototypes yourself using 3D printers, shop tools, and CNC equipment — turning designs into physical hardware quickly
• Integrate mechanical designs with motors, sensors, electronics, and actuators on robotic arms and mobile bases
• Collaborate closely with electrical, software, and robotics teams to bring complete autonomous systems together for production deployment
