As a Senior Design Engineer, you will play a key role in shaping the next generation of MiPA, NEURA Robotics' cognitive mobile robot platform. You will be responsible for the mechanical development of complex robotic subsystems, from concept design to production release, while ensuring high standards in engineering documentation, product structures, and manufacturability.
Working within a multidisciplinary team, you will help create robots that safely interact with people and operate across industrial, commercial, and everyday environments.
Your mission & challengesLead mechanical design projects for MiPA and its subsystems
Develop robust mechanical architectures and production-ready designs
Create and maintain CAD models, technical drawings, product structures, and bills of materials
Perform structural, stability, durability, and tolerance analyses
Drive Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) throughout the product development process
Define and maintain engineering design standards and documentation quality
Coordinate development activities across mechanical, electronics, software, manufacturing, and sourcing teams
Support prototype builds, testing, validation, and product industrialization
Manage engineering changes, revisions, and configuration control processes
Contribute to technical decision-making, risk assessments, and design reviews

What We Do
NEURA Robotics is a German high-tech company founded in 2019 in Metzingen near Stuttgart with the vision to revolutionize the world of robotics. More than 180 team members from over 30 countries are working on advanced technologies in the fields of environmental perception, drive and control technology, material science, mechanical design, and artificial intelligence. We are expanding the cognitive capabilities of robots and make breakthrough advances in a variety of areas to bring robots and humans closer together, making many areas of work more attractive, creative, and social again. That's why everything we do runs under the guiding principle "we serve humanity". In a very short period of time, NEURA Robotics has developed robots and technologies that are characterized above all by their outstanding performance as well as safe and human-centred way of working. In this way, a wide variety of application fields can be covered, from intelligent production to medical technology. All major robot components are developed and designed in-house.
