Aufgabe
We are seeking a highly skilled and innovative Mechanical Design Engineer to lead the development of next-generation, handheld surgical tools that seamlessly interface with advanced robotic systems. The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of complex mechanisms, rotating systems, and high-precision mechanical design, reminiscent of high-performance power hand tools. In this role, you will bridge the gap between robust mechanical functionality and sophisticated robotic interfaces, ensuring the highest standards of safety, ergonomics, and manufacturability. Mechanism & System Design: Conceptualize, develop, and refine complex mechanical designs, rotating systems, and intricate mechanisms for handheld surgical devices. Robotic Integration: Design robust mechanical interfaces that connect handheld instrumentation with robotic equipment. Design for Excellence (DFX): Apply strict DFM (Design for Manufacturing) and DFA (Design for Assembly) principles to optimize product quality, yield, and cost. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with robotics and electrical engineering teams to ensure seamless electro-mechanical integration. Advanced CAD Development: Create robust 3D models and high-quality, production-ready 2D drawings. Data Management: Manage the full product lifecycle and CAD data integrity within a strict PLM environment.Key Responsibilities
Primary Focus: Mechanical Design & Innovation (approx. 70%)
