About the Team Our Robotics team is focused on unlocking general-purpose robotics and pushing towards AGI-level intelligence in dynamic, real-world settings. Working across the entire model stack, we integrate cutting-edge hardware and software to explore a broad range of robotic form factors. We strive to seamlessly blend high-level AI capabilities with the constraints of physical systems to improve peoples' lives. About the Role We are seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer to lead the development of motor mechanical designs and prototype hardware for advanced robotic systems. You will own stator and rotor mechanical development from early concepts and detailed design through hands-on builds and prototype validation, partnering closely with electromagnetic, electrical, test, and manufacturing teams. This role focuses on the design, integration, and validation of motor components and prototype processes, including laminations, stack assemblies, bobbins, winding...

Job Description About the Team You will be part of a collaborative product development team responsible for driving and managing furniture sample development from concept through production. You will partner cross-functionally with Design, Technical Design, Merchants, Sourcing, and global manufacturing partners to bring high-quality, durable, and scalable furniture to market. As part of Williams-Sonoma, Inc., a leader in home lifestyle and retail, our Product Development and Engineering team delivers best-in-class products through innovation, material optimization, manufacturability improvements, cost engineering, and cross-brand alignment. About the Role As a Furniture Engineer, you will support new product development each season by engineering construction solutions, developing 3D models and detailed specifications, reviewing prototypes, and collaborating closely with global vendors. You will ensure that designs meet durability, safety, and cost requirements while...

Merge Labs is a frontier research lab with the mission of bridging biological and artificial intelligence to maximize human ability, agency and experience. We're pursuing this goal by developingfundamentally new approaches to brain-computer interfaces that interact with the brain at high bandwidth, integrate with advanced AI, and are ultimately safe and accessible for anyone to use. About the Team Merge is building the most advanced interface to the brain, capable of interacting with neurons at unprecedented scale and bandwidth. Delivering that capability in form factors that anyone would want to use will require engineering at the frontier of what's possible. We're assembling a team of exceptional builders across electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, mixed-signal IC design, materials science, systems engineering, and engineering physics. We reason from fundamentals, move comfortably across disciplines, and build technology that scales. We prototype, test, and iterate...

The Role As a Mechanical Engineer at Sofar, you'll be a key contributor to the design, development, and manufacturing of the hardware that powers our ocean sensing networks. You'll work across the full product lifecycle-from early system architecture and prototyping through testing, deployment, and transition to manufacturing. You'll own mechanical designs and make thoughtful tradeoffs across performance, reliability, manufacturability, cost, and schedule. You'll work closely with electrical, firmware, software, and manufacturing engineers to solve challenging multidisciplinary problems, and you won't hesitate to jump in when the root cause isn't obviously mechanical. Responsibilities Own mechanical designs and subassemblies from early concepts and CAD through prototyping, validation, and production. Design reliable hardware for harsh marine environments, balancing performance, manufacturability, cost, and schedule. Build, test, and debug prototypes and production...
