Robotics Mechatronics Engineer Technician

We are looking for a Robotics Mechatronics Engineer with a strong interest in industrial robotics and hands-on hardware development. You may already have professional experience or you may have built deep practical expertise through personal or non-traditional projects. The ideal candidate is comfortable taking ideas from concept through prototyping to a fully commissioned robotic cell operating in a real production environment.

About MESH

MESH Robotics Construction is automating rebar fabrication and construction processes using robotics and software. Our mission is to bring modern robotics and industrial-grade automation to one of the most fragmented and under-invested industries enabling faster safer and more precise construction through systems that integrate seamlessly into existing workflows.

We design and deploy robotic solutions that operate in harsh real-world production environments not labs or demos. Our work spans mechanical systems robotics software and industrial automation with a strong focus on robustness simplicity and deployability.

MESH is based in Switzerland with in-house workshops and robot testing facilities. We work closely with partners across the construction and machinery ecosystem and regularly test our systems in production and on-site environments. We value close collaboration and hands-on engineering and primarily work on-site with our hardware.

Tasks

As a Robotics Mechatronics Engineer you will build maintain and continuously improve the mechanical and mechatronic systems that power our robotic products.

This is a hands-on role with real ownership. You will work on both new developments and existing deployed products with a focus on improving reliability performance and manufacturability. While system architecture and high-level concepts are supported by senior engineers you will be responsible for executing refining and evolving the hardware that ends up in production.

If you enjoy moving between CAD workshop and robot cell and care deeply about making hardware work reliably in real industrial conditions this role is for you.

What Youll Be Working On

You will work closely with robotics and software engineers to co-develop and test robotic systems used for rebar handling and processing as well as auxiliary equipment within robotic cells.

Your work will include:

• Building assembling and testing mechatronic subsystems and robotic end effectors
• Improving existing products with a focus on robustness serviceability and long-term performanc
• Iterating designs based on field feedback production constraints and testing results
• Integrating actuators sensors tooling and auxiliary equipment into industrial robot cells
• Supporting commissioning troubleshooting and upgrades of deployed systems

Key Responsibilities

• Design build and assemble mechatronic prototypes for industrial robotic systems (e.g. end effectors tooling fixtures)
• Co-develop robotic cells with robotics engineers balancing hardware and software solutions
• Prototype test and iterate end effectors based on existing concepts and requirements
• Integrate actuators sensors robot dress packs fixturing and peripheral equipment
• Support robot cell setup commissioning and on-site testing
• Provide practical feedback on manufacturability robustness and ease of assembly
• Use mechanical CAD for component design and layout planning
• Source fabricate and integrate industrial components and equipment
• Develop and maintain PLC-based control systems (e.g. Siemens Beckhoff OPC UA)

Requirements

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Mechatronics Mechanical Engineering Electrical Engineering Automation Engineering Robotics or equivalent practical experience as an automation technician or Automatiker
• Proven hands-on industrial experience assembling and testing mechatronic or robotic systems (e.g. end effectors custom tooling automation equipment)
• Strong practical skills in rapid prototyping (metal workshop 3D printing welding machining
• Proficiency in 3D CAD including DFM/DFA principles and technical drawings
• Awareness of safety requirements in industrial robotics including CE conformity and CMSE-related topics
• Working proficiency in English; German and/or French is a strong plus

Benefits

• Possibility for full remote work hybrid or on-site also possible.
• A challenging role in a dynamic and innovative company.
• Competitive salary and benefits package.

Interested candidates are invited to submit their applications. We look forward to reviewing your qualifications and exploring the potential for you to join our team!
