Mecanical Design Engineer - Actuators

At Enchanted Tools, we are bringing a new generation of robots to life.
Combining world-class engineering expertise and the power of imagination, we plan to make everyone’s life better with robotic characters. Our robots can glide, grasp and interact with their environment, tackling concrete issues and needs.

Founded in 2021, we are now 100 enchanters, working in different fields (Robotics, AI, Product design, Project Management, Production, Quality, Supply chain, Finance, Marketing, HR, Sales, ...) and we keep growing, thanks to our strong relationships with a variety of investors and partners.

We revealed our two prototypes to the world and are now ready for the next steps of our adventure: industrialize our production, starting with a pilot line at the heart of Paris, then building a plant, and selling our robots at a global scale. We built a whole ecosystem and rely on well-established partnerships to achieve our ambitious projects. We are looking for passionate, creative and curious experts to join us.

Why you should join us:

• You will have a unique opportunity to work on next-gen robots, cracking technological lockers of interaction, grasping, and navigation;

• You will be an early player of a super ambitious and fast-growing adventure, that proved its ability to turn dreams into reality;

• Our team are all experts in their field, coming from diverse and international backgrounds

We are seeking a Mechanical Engineer with an understanding of actuators, motors, and mechatronics components. As an integral part of our R&D team, you will play a crucial role in the development and customization of actuators for our humanoid robot. Your expertise will help us achieve the goal of creating a robot that is exceptionally fluid, silent, and powerful.

Key Responsibilities Summary:
