Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Vancouver

Design and develop mechanical components, linkages, joints, and mechanisms for humanoid robots. Apply CAD and GD&T standards, select materials and manufacturing methods, lead prototyping, integrate components with electrical and software systems, conduct safety assessments and mechanical testing, and produce technical drawings, specifications, and BOMs.

Leads the development, assembly, integration, calibration, testing, troubleshooting, and validation of humanoid robot prototypes, including hands, arms, actuators, sensors, and electromechanical systems. Provides technical leadership, directs technicians, mentors engineers, establishes prototyping and validation processes, coordinates cross-functional builds, manages risks, and supports prototype-to-production transitions. The role requires extensive hands-on robotics expertise alongside team management and technical execution leadership.

Design and develop mechanical subsystems for humanoid robots, including joints, structural assemblies, linkages, and dynamic mechanisms. Create CAD models and production drawings, apply GD&T, select materials and manufacturing processes, lead rapid prototyping, and validate mechanical performance. Collaborate with robotics, controls, electrical, and software teams to integrate and deploy robotic hardware. Own subsystems from concept through testing and production while maintaining technical documentation and conducting design reviews, risk assessments, and safety analyses.

Design and develop torque-dense robotic actuators, gearboxes, and precision mechanical assemblies for humanoid robots. Own components from concept through prototyping, testing, validation, and deployment. Create CAD models and production drawings, apply GD&T, select materials and manufacturing processes, and collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to integrate motors, sensors, bearings, and drives. Lead design reviews, safety assessments, documentation, and mechanical testing for reliable, scalable production.

Assemble, integrate, test, calibrate, troubleshoot, and maintain humanoid robotic systems and subassemblies. Support prototyping and development through hands-on assembly and testing, collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and firmware teams, document failures and corrective actions, create technical manuals and SOPs, and manage specialized equipment, tools, and component inventory.

Develop and validate low-level actuator and joint controllers for humanoid robots. Work across control theory, kinematics, dynamics, system identification, real-time C++, ROS2, fieldbus communication, sensor integration, safety mechanisms, and hardware bring-up. Collaborate with mechanical and electronics engineers to tune, calibrate, debug, and optimize robotic limbs and end-effectors on physical hardware.

Develop and own real-time firmware and embedded software for humanoid robot subsystems, including motion control, sensor and actuator interfaces, communication networks, hardware abstraction layers, and low-level drivers. Integrate and test hardware and software, optimize performance under system constraints, implement communication protocols, troubleshoot embedded systems, and document architecture and validation results. Collaborate with multidisciplinary robotics, mechanical, electrical, controls, and AI teams from concept through deployment.

Lead Humanoid's commercial expansion across MENA (initial focus Saudi Arabia and the GCC). Own regional go-to-market strategy, build pipeline, secure pilots and commercial agreements, develop strategic partnerships with enterprise and government stakeholders, and manage regional revenue, forecasting, and cross-functional collaboration to drive adoption of humanoid robotics.
