La Laguna, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, España ARQUIMEA A tiempo completo

ARQUIMEA, we are a technology company operating globally and providing innovate solutions and products in highly demanding sectors.

Our areas of activity are Aerospace, Defense & Security, Big Science, Biotechnology and Fintech.  

ARQUIMEA Research Center (ARC), part of ARQUIMEA , was born in 2019 with the aim of inventing the technologies of tomorrow. An environment of innovation and excellence at European level from which senior and junior researchers from around the world develop disruptive technologies and business models that will serve as an engine of socio-economic growth in the medium and long term. 

We are looking for a Mechanical Research Engineer: The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in mechanical design, design for manufacturing (DFM), and low to mid-volume production, ideally with some knowledge in the field of robotic devices, particularly in battery-powered, highly-dynamic mobile systems. 

Tasks to be performed: 

  • Design and develop mechanical subsystems for robotic platforms, emphasizing performance, reliability, and manufacturability.

  • Apply FEA tools to assess structural integrity, fatigue life, thermal performance, and dynamic behavior (CFD experience is a strong plus).

  • Analysis of the SOTA in robotic control algorithms and methods

  • Select and validate COTS components for actuation, sensing, and structural applications.

  • Collaborate with electrical and software engineers to ensure seamless integration of mechanical systems with sensors, actuators, and control electronics.

  • Lead and support DFM activities, including vendor interactions, tolerance analysis, and production documentation for low to mid-volume manufacturing.

  • Build and test prototypes to validate performance and inform design iterations.

  • Contribute to design reviews, project planning, and risk assessments.

  • Stay informed about emerging materials, manufacturing techniques, and robotics trends.


Required skills, experience and candidate profile: 

  • Relevant degree in Mechanical Engineering (MsC/PhD), Mechatronics, Robotics, or a related field.

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in mechanical design for robotics or complex electromechanical systems.

  • Defining Requirements at the system level. Understanding the implications of multidisciplinary requirements and monitor progress through conventional tools, such as FMEA.

  • Demonstrated experience in low to mid-volume manufacturing processes (e.g., CNC machining, injection molding, 3D printing, sheet metal, etc.).

  • Proficiency with 3D CAD (e.g., SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Creo) and FEA tools (e.g., ANSYS, COMSOL, Abaqus).

  • Strong track record in DFM, including BOM management, tolerance stack-ups, and cost-effective design.

  • Solid experience in electronics integration, including housing design for PCBs, wiring, connectors, and thermal considerations.

  • Excellent understanding of mechanical materials and fasteners, seals, bearings, gears, and kinematics.

Additionally, we will also value experience in the following areas: 

  • Proven track record of working in a research-oriented environment.

  • Experience working with agile methodologies is desired.

  • Basic understanding of electronics, software, and its role/impact in complex systems and the constraints imposed in mechanical devices.

  • Data-driven, analytical mindset. Open to challenges.

  • Detail-oriented person, with experience working in agile development environments, especially when focused to product hardware development.

  • We are also looking for a good person, someone who thrives working in multidisciplinary and ever-changing environments.

  • Proficient in English

  • The candidate must be eligible to work in the EU.
