Berkshire Grey

Mechanical Engineer

• Work directly as a member of a new product development team, applying their mechanical expertise to deliver a novel, integrated system.
• At times work independently on pieces of systems, with a team of other mechanical engineers, or with other engineering disciplines to ensure a cohesive system design.
• Internalize the notion of ownership, display the qualities of a self-starter and proactive problem solver on a cross-disciplinary product team to advance designs from conceptualization to customer acceptance.
• Deeply understand existing customer operational needs and constraints to define system-level requirements including decomposition into appropriate sub-systems.
• Design of practical solutions both quickly and carefully, independently preempting issues of manufacturability and future maintenance.
• Design and execute tests to disambiguate between candidate solutions, find the best approach, and convince the team of your conclusion.
• Transform tested conceptual solutions into robust product designs in coordination with engineering operations, the customer and contract manufacturers.
• Design and release components and systems using SolidWorks and PLM systems.
• Develop production and support documentation including bills of material (BOMs), fabrication and assembly drawings, and maintenance instructions.
• Hands-on prototyping, utilizing shop tools and equipment to quickly iterate ideas and solutions.
• Collaborate with suppliers, machinists, and contract manufacturers to guarantee on-time delivery and deployment for fully assembled, functional, and tested electromechanical systems to customer facilities.
• Perform test and verification of prototype systems.
• Perform system design analyses, including reliability, design-for-manufacture, design-for-assembly, cost-takeout, etc.
• Oversee design, development, and test activities among more junior team members, including an emphasis on reinforcing existing and influencing new team standards.
