About the Role
As a Machine Designer on the Implementation team, you will be the mechanical design authority behind Standard Bots' custom automation solutions. You'll transform customer requirements and site survey data into engineered solutions, collaborating closely with Automation Engineers from project kickoff through customer handoff. You are comfortable leading design reviews and presenting CAD models to customer teams, holding yourself to high standards on precision, manufacturability, and documentation clarity.
Responsibilities
- Create 3D models and detailed fabrication drawings for robotic automation cells, end-of-arm tooling (EOAT), custom fixtures, machine guards, and structural support using SolidWorks
- Design to manufacturing constraints for sheet metal, welded fabrications, and machined components
- Manage bills of materials (BOMs) for sourcing and procurement
- Apply GD&T; principles to ensure designs are manufacturable, inspectable, and repeatable
- Conduct FEA on structural and load-bearing components to validate safety margins
- Develop full 3D cell layout models accounting for robot reach envelopes, safety clearances, operator access, and equipment footprint
- Define and document EOAT specifications, interface plates, quick-change systems, and tool change architectures
- Collaborate on I/O routing, pneumatic manifold placement, cable management, and sensor mounting
- Review installation sequences and identify design-for-assembly improvements
- Present concept designs, CAD models, and layout drawings to customer teams for review and approval
- Incorporate customer feedback and site constraints into design iterations
- Produce complete, accurate as-built documentation packages
- Build and maintain a reusable component library
- Define and enforce internal design standards, drawing templates, revision control protocols, and file management procedures
- Identify recurring design challenges and propose standardized solutions
Requirements
- 3–5 years of hands-on CAD design experience in an industrial automation, robotics integration, or custom manufacturing environment
- Portfolio of completed automation or equipment designs taken from concept through fabrication and installation
- Demonstrated experience designing EOAT, fixtures, or custom automation components for collaborative or industrial robots
- Expert proficiency in SolidWorks
- Familiarity with AutoCAD for 2D layouts and wiring diagrams
- Strong GD&T; knowledge and experience creating production-ready drawing packages
- Design experience across common manufacturing processes: sheet metal, welded structural steel, machined parts, and 3D-printed components
- Familiarity with robotic reach envelopes, collaborative safety zone requirements, and machine guard design standards
- Experience selecting and specifying off-the-shelf automation components: pneumatic actuators, quick-change tool changers, linear rails, force/torque sensors, and vision system mounts
- Working knowledge of electrical conduit routing, cable management, and pneumatic line placement
- Meticulous attention to detail
- Collaborative, communicative, pragmatic, and fast-moving
- Self-directed with the ability to manage your own project workload
