Our solutions help manufacturers achieve new levels of efficiency by automating processes that were previously impossible with conventional technologies. We serve diverse industries including Automotive, Medical Devices, Renewables, Aerospace, Semiconductors, and Electronics.

Our systems are trusted and deployed by leading companies such as Tata Motors, Borosil Renewables, Aurolab, suppliers to Mahindra, Blue Star, and Godrej, among many others.

Role Overview:

We are hiring a Mechanical Engineer to join our Pune team. The role involves mechanical design, prototyping, validation, and close collaboration with robotics and AI teams to build robust automation systems. The ideal candidate is hands-on, detail-oriented, and focused on manufacturable, reliable designs.

Key Responsibilites:

1. Create 3D models and 2D manufacturing drawings for fixtures, machine components, and assemblies using CAD (SolidWorks preferred).
2. Apply GD&T principles to ensure part accuracy and manufacturability.

3. Perform design validation and assist with Finite Element Analysis (FEA); interpret results and recommend design changes.
4. Work with fabrication and vendor teams to validate manufacturability, support prototyping, and oversee part testing and assembly.
5. Prepare and maintain Bill of Materials (BOMs), assembly instructions, and version-controlled design documentation.

6. Troubleshoot mechanical issues during prototype and production stages; implement design improvements.

7. Collaborate cross-functionally with robotics, electronics, and software teams to integrate mechanical systems into larger automation solutions.

8. Liaise with suppliers for quotations, lead times, and technical clarifications as required.
