As Post-Doctoral Robotics Researcher you will be part of the design and development team, responsible for the successful design and development of the next-generation product.
You will develop the complex electromechanical systems of the next generation robotic platform that will change the future of healthcare.
You are able to apply advanced analytical and problem-solving methodologies including mathematical modeling, simulations and control theories to design, development, and optimization of the state-of-the-art complex mechanical systems.
You are also experienced in mechanical engineering design principles of capital equipment and modeling such systems using statics, dynamics, kinematics, and vibration analyses in different phases of product life cycle.
You must be highly proficient with current development tools, software, practices, and processes.
Primary Responsibilities:
Apply advanced analytical methodologies including mathematical/numerical modeling and simulations to design, development and optimization of state-of-the-art mechanical systems
Utilize mechanical engineering design principles of capital equipment and mechanisms combined with application of static, dynamic, and kinematic analyses
Design and develop mechanical sub-systems including concepts generation, CAD design, analyses, documentation, verification, and Design for Manufacturing & Assembly, and Design for Reliability for current and new products
Implement best practices in design methodologies, development processes, and tools
Participate in hands-on activities including engineering tests and characterizations
Participate in the generation of new concepts and creating patents
Publish and present research articles in journals and conferences, when appropriate
Qualifications:
PhD in mechanical engineering or mechatronics or closely related fields (preferably with research background in the field of medical device)
Outstanding academic background with a demonstrated record for high-impact research is required
Product development experience (mechanical-machine design), in particular in medical robotics, is highly desired.
Programming skills and experience using analytical and simulation tools including:
o MATLAB, Simulink, SimScape, SolidWorks CAD modeling, SolidWorks SIM and SolidWorks Motion Analysis
o FEA analysis (e.g., ANSYS), Tolerance, and Statistical analysis tools
o LabVIEW, experience with sensors and DAQ systems
Experience with motion control, and applied control theories are highly desired
Strong communication skills required
