About The Role
As a Senior or Staff Mechanical Engineer in our Hardware Integration team you will be responsible for engineering support structures for the sensor stack, aesthetic covers, and establishing the processes needed to do this at a low & medium volume production scale today and prepare for high volume production in the future. You will work as part of a multidisciplinary team delivering high quality vehicle builds following best engineering practices & standards. Your area of expertise is design of mechanical structural assemblies & integration of electronic components, preferably in the automotive industry. You are excited about generating new design ideas in CAD and are comfortable with hand-tools and rapid prototyping fabrication to test out your design. This role requires working onsite 5 days a week from our Mountain View headquarters. What you'll do
Lead the engineering efforts for the mechanical design & analysis from ideation to drawing release Take ownership of subsystems or complex component assemblies on and off the vehicles Perform FE analyses on your design to validate it against the use case (static, natural frequency, etc.) Champion the DFM, DFA & DFS efforts during the design cycle Closely collaborate with validation team in creation & execution of the test plan Perform detailed calculations of selected components eg. bolted/ welded/ bonded joints, seals, etc. Perform tolerance stack-up analysis for your design and use appropriate GD&T strategy Work on cooling solutions for sensors & other electronic components Own the BOM for your design & work cross functionally with procurement & manufacturing for downstream processes Build and bring-up prototype vehicles following best engineering practices & standards Lead, mentor and grow the mechanical engineering discipline by creating standards & processes What we're looking for
5+ years of experience designing & analyzing complex mechanical structures and integration of hardware An engineering degree in Mechanical, Mechatronics or an equivalent field Delivered multiple parts, subsystem(s) or system(s) to production successfully Experience in automotive or transportation sector, dealing with larger assemblies and parts Excellent skills for 3D CAD design & 2D drafting per ASME Y14.5 (SolidWorks preferred) Experience in FE analysis (vibration experience bonus) Experience working in an engineering process environment e.g. using PDM & PLM, creating ECOs, generating BOMs, CM etc. Expertise in creating Aluminum & steel designs, with a focus on sheet metal fabrication, welded design, extrusions & machined design Expertise in tolerance stacking, especially linear & simple 2D stacks Working knowledge of ISO 26262 & its relevance to integration of E&E components Expertise in component selection and specification (seals, fasteners, materials, coatings etc.) Hands-on Engineer that is able and willing to use hand tools including drills, brake presses, oscillating saws, grinders, rotary tools etc. if required Bonus
Experience in design of heat sinks, heat exchangers, thermal design & CFD Experience working with sensors like Lidars, Radars, Camera, GNSS etc Experience working with sensor cleaning & sensor protection solutions Working knowledge of a scripting language like Python, Go, Perl, etc. Working knowledge of optics, have worked with cameras & lidars in the past Working knowledge of harness routing, have experience working with harness engineers Understanding of E&E basics like power draw, high data rate cables, connectors, etc. More about Gatik
Founded in 2017 by experts in autonomous vehicle technology, Gatik has rapidly expanded its presence to Mountain View, Dallas-Fort Worth, Arkansas, and Toronto. As the first and only company to achieve fully driverless middle-mile commercial deliveries, Gatik holds a unique and defensible position in the AV industry, with a clear trajectory toward sustainable growth and profitability. We have delivered complete, proprietary AV technology - an integration of software and hardware - to enable earlier successes for our clients in constrained Level 4 autonomy. By choosing the middle mile – with defined point-to-point delivery, we have simplified some of the more complex AV challenges, enabling us to achieve full autonomy ahead of competitors. Given extensive knowledge of Gatik's well-defined, fixed route ODDs and hybrid architecture, we are able to hyper-optimize our models with exponentially less data, establish gate-keeping mechanisms to maintain explainability, and ensure continued safety of the system for unmanned operations.
