About the Job

Requirements

  • A mechanical engineering background or equivalent experience, with strong mechanical intuition and a solid understanding of physical equipment and interfaces.
  • Proficiency in computer-aided design (CAD)-based mechanical design and system layout, including creating assemblies, drawings, bills of materials (BOMs), and manufacturing or installation documentation; Onshape is preferred.
  • Experience owning a meaningful piece of a physical project through build or delivery.
  • Strong spreadsheet and data-organization skills, and a pragmatic, process-driven approach to following and improving repeatable engineering processes.
  • Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to work well under pressure while maintaining high standards.

Responsibilities

  • Own customer-specific robotic system deployments end to end, from initial requirements and concept through shipment and installation support.
  • Turn loose or incomplete customer requirements into a concrete engineering plan, identifying missing information, interface risks, and blockers early.
  • Develop complete, accurate, installation-ready system layouts and detailed designs in Onshape.
  • Create and maintain assemblies, drawings, bills of materials, and manufacturing and installation documentation.
  • Drive procurement, vendor coordination, kitting, and production so every project is complete and ready to ship on schedule.
  • Coordinate mechanical, electrical, controls, facility, and deployment interfaces in partnership with Engineering, Product, Sales, Operations, and customers.
  • Use sound judgment to choose simple, proven solutions over unnecessary custom engineering, and know when to pull in additional engineering expertise.
  • Improve the scalability of customer engineering by turning recurring project needs into reusable components, templates, standards, and processes.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience as a Project, Applications, Systems, or Integration Engineer or similar role.
  • Experience with industrial automation, robotics, material handling, conveyor systems, packaging equipment, or other engineered-to-order machinery.

About the Company

Ambi Robotics

AI-powered robotic parcel sorting system

Ambi Robotics provides AI-powered robotic systems for parcel sorting in shipping, e-commerce, and logistics. Its flagship product, AmbiSort, is a robotic system that can pick, analyze, sort, and pack packages with high precision, driven by the AmbiOS software platform. The robots are adaptable across series (A/B) and are designed to integrate into existing workflows. The technology relies on Sim2Real AI, which enables robots to be trained thousands of times faster and start operating in real-world conditions from day one. Ambi Robotics operates on a robotics-as-a-service model, offering access to its hardware and software through a ongoing service rather than outright robot purchases. This approach helps clients improve sorting accuracy, reduce returns, and lower labor costs. The company differentiates itself through fast real-world readiness, emphasis on customer empathy, and a focus on solving real-world supply chain problems rather than purely building hardware.
