R&D Mechatronics Engineer - Invent the Next Generation Platforms

Job Description

Engineer at the Edge of Innovation

At EmergingDx Inc, we are an integrated innovation institution. Our work spans strategy, science, engineering, design, and venture development, all under one roof. Our mission: to deliver transformative technologies and systems with real-world impact across industries — from microfluidics and automation to soft robotics and intelligent platforms.

We’re seeking a Mechatronics Engineer who thrives at the intersection of disciplines. You won’t just build mechanisms or write firmware — you’ll collaborate across engineering, design, and science to invent and realize intelligent systems that shape tomorrow’s tools, infrastructure, and services.

This is an innovation without silos. Creation without compromise. If you think across domains and build with purpose, this is where you belong.

Responsibilities (What You’ll Do)

Design and develop smart electromechanical systems that combine mechanical, electrical, and software elements

Integrate sensors, actuators, motion control, and embedded intelligence into working prototypes and production systems

Rapidly iterate using agile hardware and software development methods

Develop and manage fast-paced project timelines while proactively identifying and mitigating risks

Work closely with cross-functional teams

Perform circuit and PCB design (analog/digital), motor drivers, signal conditioning, and system integration

Conduct hands-on testing, debugging, documentation, and peer design reviews.

Effectively communicate results and technical insights to clients and stakeholders through both written reports and oral presentations

Co-create within a culture that values experimentation, mentorship, and continuous learning

Craft and deliver clear, compelling narratives—both written and oral—conveying technical project progress and proposed initiatives

Desired Qualifications (What You Bring)

BS, MS, or PhD in Mechatronics, Robotics, Mechanical, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.

5+ years of hands-on experience in cross-functional R&D environments.

Deep hands-on skills in:

Mechatronic system integration

Embedded systems (microcontrollers, real-time programming, hardware/software co-design)

Circuit design (analog/digital), motor control, power electronics

CAD tools (SolidWorks, Fusion 360), simulation (MATLAB/Simulink)

Programming (Python, C/C++, ROS)

Experience with:

PCB layout (Altium, KiCad)

Prototyping, debugging, lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.)

Design for manufacturing and testing (DFM/DFT)

Systems thinker with mission-driven mindset

Comfortable in fast-paced, ambiguous environments that demand creativity and initiative

Proven track record of leading R&D programs to deliver innovative, high-quality outcomes on schedule, aligned with stakeholder expectations and technical goals

Excellent verbal and written communication skills

Bonus skills:

Fluidics, thermal systems, battery integration

Wireless protocols (BLE, Wi-Fi, LoRa)

Familiarity with medical device regulations (ISO 13485, FDA standards)

Why EmergingDx

You’ll work on products, platforms, and ventures — not just features

You’ll gain ownership, mentorship, and momentum

You’ll be part of something bigger: a community shaping what’s next

We offer a competitive salary with full benefits package.
