Senior Mechatronics Engineer - Part Time

About the Role
We’re building the next generation of AI-orchestrated inspection systems for wind turbines and heavy industrial assets. We now need a senior mechatronics brain who can straddle mechanical design, electronics, embedded systems, and software—someone who actually enjoys making machines behave instead of philosophizing about them.

This role is part-time, perfect for someone who loves solving real engineering problems without signing up for corporate therapy sessions.

What You’ll Work On
You’ll lead and support the development of our robotic inspection modules—especially the robotic manipulator for ultrasonic bolt testing on wind turbines. You’ll work across mechanical, electrical, and software layers (because in the real world, they’re all tangled anyway).

Key Responsibilities

• Design, refine, and validate mechanical systems for robotic inspection tools (arms, end-effectors, UT tooling, etc.)
• Collaborate on sensor integration: ultrasonic, vibration, thermal, and other inspection payloads
• Lead system-level mechatronics architecture—mechanical + electrical + firmware + software
• Work with our AI and robotics teams to ensure seamless hardware-software handshake
• Build, test, break, and fix prototypes rapidly
• Support field testing with Wind World India and other partners
• Ensure designs are robust for outdoor, tower-top, high-vibration environments (aka “wind turbines don’t care about your feelings”)

Required Skills

• Strong mechanical engineering fundamentals (mechanisms, actuators, materials, FEM is a bonus)
• Solid experience with embedded systems, motor control, and mechatronics integration
• Practical hands-on prototyping - CNC/3D printing/rapid fabrication
• Firmware experience (Arduino, STM, ESP, or ROS2 microcontrollers)
• Ability to read and write software that actually runs on robots (C++/Python preferred)
• Experience with robots, manipulators, or industrial automation
• Confidence working on safety-critical hardware
• Comfortable collaborating with AI software teams

Preferred But Not Mandatory

• Experience with inspection robotics (UT, NDT, crawlers, drone payloads)
• Background in wind energy, aerospace, or industrial automation
• ROS2 experience
• Experience taking R&D hardware toward production readiness

Why Join
You’ll help build a robotic system that will sit inside wind turbines across India and Europe while shaping the core mechatronics direction for Noos AI’s inspection ecosystem. And yes, you get to work on robots without the full-time shackles.
