Apptronik
Hardware Integration Engineer - Dexterity
About this role
Apptronik seeks a Hardware Integration Engineer to develop and bring sophisticated robotic hands from prototype to production. You'll own hardware bring-up, system calibration, testing, and serve as the technical bridge between mechanical, electrical, and autonomy teams to ensure Apollo's end-effectors achieve human-level dexterity and industrial reliability.
What you'll do
- Execute hardware bring-up, diagnostics, and troubleshooting for new robotic hand prototypes and assemblies
- Develop and perform kinematic and dynamic calibration procedures for robotic hands
- Conduct component-level and full-assembly testing to validate performance, durability, and reliability
- Design, build, and maintain Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testbeds for automated hardware and software verification
- Analyze test data, document results, and provide technical feedback to mechanical and electrical design teams
- Bridge communication between mechanical design, electrical engineering, and autonomy teams
What they're looking for
- Hardware integration and bring-up
- Electromechanical system testing and validation
- Robot kinematics and dynamics
- Measurement tools (oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies)
- Data analysis (Python, MATLAB)
- Electrical schematic and mechanical drawing interpretation
- Hardware debugging and diagnostics
- Technical documentation
