Mechanical Design Engineer

RAW BOTS LLP is looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join our core engineering team. You'll be working across SPM design, industrial product development, and robotic systems — from concept to manufacturable hardware. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants to own designs end-to-end, not just push CAD.
Responsibilities
Design Special Purpose Machines (SPMs) for automation applications across Pharma, Packaging, Food, Textile and other industries
Develop industrial product designs from concept through detailed engineering
Design mechanical systems for robotic platforms like AMRs, Legged Robots, AGVs/UGVs, Robotic Arms, and related mechatronic systems
Work closely with manufacturing to ensure designs translate cleanly into production — tolerancing, fits, material selection, and process compatibility
Collaborate with the electronics and firmware team to ensure mechanical designs integrate with sensors, actuators and control systems
Iterate designs based on prototype testing, simulation results and field feedback
Requirements
Strong grasp of Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles
Proficiency in GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing)
Advanced SolidWorks skills
Experience with Ansys or equivalent for mechanical/structural simulation
Ability to run and interpret mechanical simulations (stress, thermal, motion) to validate designs before manufacturing
Prior experience in industrial automation, robotics, or machine building is a strong plus
