Key skills for this role
As a CAE Engineer at Mind Robotics, you will be the primary authority on how our robot stands up to the physical world. From high-torque manipulation to locomotion impact, you won’t just run simulations, you will own the structural integrity, stiffness, and dynamic performance of the entire system (arms, torso, base, and end effectors) from napkin sketch to mass production.
Mind Robotics is building Physical AI for real-world industrial deployment, starting with the factory floor. We believe the hardest problems in AI are solved when researchers and engineers are hands-on with the physical world every day - and we're looking for people who are passionate about robotics, value ownership, and are excited to tackle difficult problems. Join us if you want to move beyond digital intelligence and put intelligence into motion.
