Mechanical Design Engineer

Droyd builds autonomous robotic systems that automate repetitive manual work in real environments. Our robots operate in production settings, which means mechanical design has to be robust, manufacturable, and tightly integrated with electronics and control systems.

Our mechanical team designs the structures, linkages, and assemblies that make the robots real. This work moves fast and lives on the shop floor as much as it does in CAD.

As a Mechanical Design Engineer at Droyd, you’ll own mechanical subsystems from first sketch through working prototype. You’ll design, build, break, and iterate on real hardware.

This is a hands-on role. You’ll spend time in CAD, but also at the printer, in the shop, and on the robot. You’ll work closely with electrical, software, and robotics teams to bring systems together.

This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We’re an in-person company. We build faster that way.
