Mechanical Design Engineer

Pace Robotics is a construction robotics startup incubated by SINE IIT-Bombay and backed by Pidilite Ventures and IIMA Ventures. We are making the building construction process faster, smarter and efficient through our multi-tasking robots. We have been working with top real estate developers and contractors through pilot projects and are gearing up for delivering the first lot of commercial orders in a few months.


What you will do:

• Work with product designers and mechanical engineers to create effective, viable and manufacturable machine part designs and assemblies.
• Conceptualised and designed 3D models of components, parts and assemblies, considering DFMA.
• Convert 3d models into manufacturable, detailed drawings with appropriate GD&T following ISO GPS or other relevant standards.
• Handle part selection, mechanism design/selection, basic kinematics, dynamics and solid mechanics calculations of the designs.
• Create simulations/kinematic studies where applicable.
• Create BOMs, manufacturing process layouts, inspection drawings, assembly procedures and support in all manufacturing activities, including vendor management, procurement, quality and inspection etc.
• Manage all designs from concept to manufacturing finalisation using relevant PLM software.
  
  

Who you are:

• You hold a Bachelors Degree in Mechanical Engineering and Master’s degree in Industrial Design/Mechanical Engineering with a minimum work experience of 5 years and proficiency in both SolidWorks and NX Siemens.
• Design work experience in tooling/special machines/test equipment or similar industries.
• Manufacturing work experience in automotive or related industry.
• Strong hands on experience with precision parts and sheet metal modelling.
• Extensive knowledge and practical experience with GD&T procedures, DFMA, standards and application.
• Knowledge and experience with PLM software.
• First hand experience with basic manufacturing processes such as milling, drilling, turning, bending, welding (TIG and ARC), heat treatment, stamping, 3d printing and moulding.
• Strong fundamentals in machine design including knowledge of material selection, basics of mechanics/kinematics/dynamics, Solid Mechanics, selection of components such as bearings, power transmission, motors, pneumatics, shock absorbers, joints and fasteners etc.
• Knowledge and first hand experience with metrology and measurement tools such as CMM, Profile Scanners, Height Gauge, Dial Gauge, Calipers etc.
• You prefer the uncertain, ever changing, at times-chaotic but fast growing work environment of a startup to a well-structured, predictable corporate work culture.
• You can work unsupervised and set your own pace of work to match the business needs.
  
  

Great to have:

• Exposure to FEA and CFD.
• Idea of basic mechatronics principles and components.
  
  

Whats in it for you:

Globally, Construction provides a 1.6 Trillion Dollar opportunity, just by making the work more efficient. This is the market we are after. You will be an integral part of the core team of an early stage startup on a mission to change the way we build our world and disrupt one of the oldest and the largest industries. You will be designing products that can change the landscape of construction, become ubiquitous in project sites and be synonymous with construction of the future (Think of JCB and Tower Cranes of today)

We promise you an environment that promotes unhindered innovation and one that can provide exciting opportunities for accelerated growth. You will be working with a stellar engineering team having diverse experience in developing robots for automotive, agriculture and construction industries. You will have immense learning opportunity as you will be working on ‘never-seen-before’ products for an industry that’s ripe for technological disruptions.
