Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Lead the development and optimization of mechanical systems for humanoid robots from concept through serial production. Drive industrialization efforts and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure robustness, cost-efficiency, and quality.
Requires a degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field with 8-15+ years of experience in complex mechatronic product development. Must have a proven track record of bringing products into serial production and expertise in CAD and manufacturing processes.
Our goal is to bring humanoid robots from advanced prototypes into reliable, scalable serial production. We are looking for experienced mechanical engineers who have successfully developed complex electromechanical products and guided them through industrialization, manufacturing ramp-up, and product maturity.
As a key member of our humanoid robotics team, you will shape the mechanical architecture of next-generation humanoid robots while ensuring designs meet the demanding requirements of volume production, reliability, serviceability, cost, and quality.
This role is ideal for engineers with extensive experience developing sophisticated mechanical systems in industries such as robotics, automation, automotive, aerospace, medical devices, industrial equipment, or consumer electronics.
Lead the development and optimization of mechanical systems for humanoid robots from concept through serial production.
Design and improve structures, joints, actuators, gearboxes, housings, and other critical subsystems with a strong focus on manufacturability, robustness, and cost.
Drive Design for Manufacturing (DfM), Design for Assembly (DfA), Design for Serviceability (DfS), and Design-to-Cost activities.
Own product industrialization efforts, collaborating closely with manufacturing, supply chain, quality, and production engineering teams.
Define and manage mechanical architecture, component specifications, tolerances, and critical interfaces across the robot.
Conduct structural, fatigue, thermal, tolerance, and reliability analyses to ensure long-term product performance.
Lead root-cause analyses and implementation of corrective actions during prototype, validation, and production phases.
Support supplier selection, qualification, and technical reviews with external manufacturing partners.
Develop validation strategies and oversee testing activities to ensure compliance with performance and reliability requirements.
Mentor junior engineers and help establish engineering best practices across the organization.
Work closely with electronics, controls, software, product management, and operations teams to deliver highly integrated robotic systems.
Master's or Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, or a related discipline.
Typically 8–15+ years of industry experience developing complex mechanical or mechatronic products.
Proven track record of bringing products from development into serial production.
Strong expertise in mechanical design, machine elements, tolerance engineering, and technical product development.
Demonstrated experience with DfM, DfA, industrialization, product cost optimization, and production ramp-up.
Extensive CAD experience (Creo preferred, SolidWorks, Siemens NX, or equivalent).
Experience working with manufacturing processes such as CNC machining, sheet metal, die casting, injection molding, composites, and precision assemblies.
Strong understanding of structural mechanics, dynamics, fatigue, and reliability engineering.
Hands-on experience with prototype development, testing, debugging, and product validation.
Ability to drive technical decisions in a multidisciplinary engineering environment.
Fluent English communication skills; German is a plus.
Experience developing robotic systems, automation equipment, humanoid robots, exoskeletons, mobile robots, or advanced mechatronic products.
Expertise in actuator systems, gearbox design, lightweight structures, and high-performance mechanical systems.
Experience scaling products from prototype to low-volume and high-volume production.
Familiarity with supplier management, quality systems, FMEA, risk analysis, and design reviews.
Experience leading mechanical engineering teams or major subsystem developments.
Understanding of reliability growth testing, field failures, and continuous product improvement processes.
we serve humanity.
NEURA Robotics is a German high-tech company founded in 2019 in Metzingen near Stuttgart with the goal to revolutionize the world of robotics. Our mission is to expand the skill set of robots with cognitive capabilities so that they can work with humans in existing environments without having to invest in complex and costly safety systems. We aim to help make numerous fields of work more attractive, safer, and more social. Our guiding principle “we serve humanity” sums up this mission. Today, more than 1000 team members from over 45 countries are working on advanced technology in the fields of environmental perception, drive and control technology, materials science, mechanical design, and AI. By developing all key components such as AI, control software, sensor technology, and mechanical components in-house, the development team has made groundbreaking progress in a variety of areas. With products such as MAiRA, the world’s first cognitive robot, or MiPA, a household and service robot, humanity awaits a new era of robotics. NEURA Robotics is currently working on launching 4NE1 (“For Anyone”), the first humanoid robot ready for series production. With the Neuraverse, a comprehensive ecosystem for innovations in the field of cognitive robotics, NEURA Robotics is creating an important technical basis for automation solutions and enabling the networking of robots and partner companies on a global scale.
