HardwareDesignEngineerII,VulcanStow

As a Hardware Development Engineer II on the Amazon Robotics team, you will design, develop, validate, and sustain electromechanical hardware for robotic systems deployed at scale in fulfillment centers. You will own component-level design through full product lifecycle — from concept and prototyping through volume production and field support. You will work with an interdisciplinary team of mechanical, electrical, controls, software, perception and manufacturing engineers to deliver robust, cost-effective hardware that meets the demands of 24/7 fulfillment operations. This role requires a hands-on engineer who exhibits thorough engineering analysis and cradle-to-grave ownership of their designs. You will balance new product introduction (NPI) development work with keep-the-lights-on (KTLO) sustaining engineering responsibilities for fielded systems. Key job responsibilities - Product Design & Development - Work with an interdisciplinary team to improve and maintain existing product designs including specification, design, prototyping, validation, and testing of electromechanical robotic components and assemblies - Design parts for volume manufacturing methods including sheet metal fabrication, injection molded plastics, high-pressure die casting, stamping, extrusion, and machining — understanding the trade-offs between each method - Apply Design for Excellence (DfX) principles throughout the design process: design for manufacturability (DFM), design for assembly (DFA), design for maintenance, design for reliability, and design for installation - Write requirements and functional specifications, design verification plans (DVPs), and functional test procedures - Create and maintain engineering drawings per GD&T (ASME Y14.5) standards - Develop and deliver high-quality design artifacts: CAD models, detailed drawings with specifications, bills of materials, trade studies, test plans, and engineering analyses - Use statistical analysis methods for design of experiments
